Photography

Just like the other topics under this blog, I feel very new to the world of photography.  I love taking photos.  It’s great capturing fun or beautiful moments, even though at the time most people don’t like their photo being taken!  Even now, only about a year after getting my first “real” camera, I can look back and really enjoy memories.  And being able to focus my mind on solving a puzzle (which settings to use, how to frame, etc) is just the sort of thing I enjoy.

I take photos just for fun, and in place of buying knick-knacks on vacation.  I feel that photos help me remember more than some little gizmo.  On this site, I’ll build a small gallery of some of my favorites, link back to my flickr account, share some tips as I learn, and whatever else I want to ramble on about.

Currently my equipment includes:

  • Canon XSi
  • 18-55mm IS kit lens
  • 55-250mm IS
  • 50mm f/1.8 (love!)
  • Gary Fong flash diffuser
  • LowePro Slingshot 100AW bag.
