wrigley80 Posted August 23, 2014 Author #127 Share Posted August 23, 2014 [quote name='windsbud']When I took my class it was with my DSLR and we learned about aperture, shutter speed, and proper exposure. Those are already set in the different scene settings on your point and shoot so yeah, a class that works with P&S cameras will teach you about the proper settings for each situation. Most consumer grade DSLR's(as opposed to a professional one)have scene settings also so if you decide to make the jump and until you get the knack of it you can still use those settings and also auto settings. Like I said, I think you already have an "eye" for it. Have fun with it![/QUOTE] Thank You. I enjoy just having my small Panasonic Point and Shoot camera in my pocket so that it's there whenever I want to take a picture. If any classes come up in our area I will definitely check one out. Thanks Again for the advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrigley80 Posted August 23, 2014 Author #128 Share Posted August 23, 2014 [quote name='dixieva']Thanks for doing this review! It's great. Can you tell me what time you actually boarded the ship to begin your cruise?[/QUOTE] Thank You for following my review. Even though we were at the port and checked in by 10:15 am. We didn't board the ship until after 12:00 pm. We are Platinum and we had priority boarding. We sat and waited in the terminal until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrigley80 Posted August 23, 2014 Author #131 Share Posted August 23, 2014 OK back to the review. We had to wait until around 12:00 pm in the terminal before we could board the Carnival Pride. Once they called for Platinum guests we were ready to board [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u372/wrigley80/Carnival%20Pride%20-%20July%202014/CruiseontheCarnivalPride-July272014052_zps1f53ff67.jpg[/IMG] We are almost onboard [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u372/wrigley80/Carnival%20Pride%20-%20July%202014/CruiseontheCarnivalPride-July272014053_zps9af52a58.jpg[/IMG] All of the supplies for the week are waiting to come onboard [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u372/wrigley80/Carnival%20Pride%20-%20July%202014/CruiseontheCarnivalPride-July272014054_zpsccf0d29d.jpg[/IMG] We made it onboard [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u372/wrigley80/Carnival%20Pride%20-%20July%202014/CruiseontheCarnivalPride-July272014055_zps454ad0a0.jpg[/IMG] After we had our first lunch onboard we made our way outside into the Serenity area [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u372/wrigley80/Carnival%20Pride%20-%20July%202014/CruiseontheCarnivalPride-July272014056_zps6f3157b4.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoDayButToday Posted August 23, 2014 #138 Share Posted August 23, 2014 This is my first time catching one of your reviews, but definitely keeping an eye on it and loving it so far! We will be taking our honeymoon on the Pride in February and these are some of the best pictures of inside the ship I've seen so far! Also, thank you for the confirmation that muster drill is on Promenade deck. I'm not so great on stairs and knowing where it will be held in relation to our stateroom is very helpful.
