Pet Photography; Monday, Second Period [7/29].

[hashtag_chocobro]

If Prompto seemed a little bit extra excited this week than normal, then it definitely had a lot to do with the fact that he was preeeeetty sure at least one of the students were really going to like what they were focusing on today!

"Hey, guys!" he greeted everyone, and, considering where he was meeting them all in the shelter, there was no point in delaying what they'd probably already guessed was the topic for this week. "Today, we're going to learn about shooting birds!"

His eyes widened slightly, as he heard what he said. "With cameras! Shooting pictures of birds, not..." He shook his head, waved his hand, all to brush that past them as quickly as possible. "Never mind. We're focusing on bird photography today. Now, clearly, here in Furnado, we're going to be working with domesticated birds rather than birds in the wild, but I'd still like to go over some general guidelines and tips for if you do want to take your camera to the skies for some wild bird photography....birdography, if you will!....as well as how to make the most out of getting great images of domesticated birds, as well.

"But before we get too far into that, I do also want to cover bird handling, too, especially if you guys want to work together to get some more interesting shots of these guys beyond the cage. Also, I've had the vet corral all the cats and dogs for the class period today, so there's no worrying about letting them out of the cage to fly around a bit if you want to explore some shots that way, too. But let's not waste any more time with preamble, let's get to the lesson so that you guys can get to the picture-taking!"

It's half about technical camera and photography stuff and half about how to be nice to your birds! All important, and the bird handling portion will definitely be hands on, although Prompto should have thought about how difficult it would be to want to set down most of these cute little guys to pick up a camera instead when he set up this class!

And now it's time for birdography! Totally gonna be a word!

Feel free to mod the types of domestic birds that the shelter has, get a few good shots in, work with each other if you'd like, and just see what you come up with!

What a great day to be Arden! She was very careful to not spend too much time delighting in the birds so that BD-1 wouldn't feel overlooked (life with Patches required some adjustments), but she was absolutely taking pictures of BD with them as much as possible.

At one point or another, pretty much every bird fluttered over to perch on her head, her shoulders, or her fingers to whistle or chirp or sing to her. Her favorites of the day were a pair of mourning doves who sat on BD-1 to coo at her.

He tends to lean a little more toward canaries, himself, because the yellow reminds him most of chocobos. Obviously.

Man, now he was wondering if he should have gone danger shop chocobo sim for this class today, but, no, he likes this more practical approach better.

But how much cooler would it be if there were chocobos!!
