Good morning everyone. It appears that Google services are down this morning. We can't even log in and use Schoology as they are linked, so this is our only method of communication for today. Sorry for the issues that it may cause. For today I have some exposure adjustments for you to do. Two of them are global (meaning to change the entire photo) and two of the are just for spots. Please choose some of your photos for this project and as always, upload the before and after to Schoology whenever it is back up. That's all that I have that is new. You can use the remaining time to continue on with your Lens Flare projects or any other back work. Have a great day everyone!
