Thanks guys.
Ric, I can say this, there are plenty of courses from beginner to advanced. Even though I have been shooting and using advanced techniques for some years now, I wanted to go back to basics. This is where some of us who might know a lot, miss the building blocks.
Going back to basics teaches you to become a problem solver, rather than a button pusher.
I will say I didn't learn much, but picked up a couple of tricks. Similarly, I have been told by a lot of people to get the book, "Understanding Exposure" by Brian Peterson. Finally, I bought this acclaimed book and read it last week. Again, I only picked up a couple of tricks but the rest was pretty basic stuff.
The biggest thing I got out of the courses and reading books like this was this: I now know WHERE I am at, and that I HAVEN'T missed out on anything. This places me in the right spot to move forward instead of wondering if I have missed anything behind.
Baz.
