I got it! I got it!

Journal Entry: Tue May 13, 2008, 9:35 PM
So I've been mulling it over for the last few weeks. Do I get a new camera so I can take up photography as a hobby or do I deal with the one I have. The other day I finally made up my mind and got a Cannon Digital Rebel XT ([link]). It arrived via UPS today!

I can't wait to take it for a spin around St. Louis and see what images I can capture. I learn better by doing than reading, but a friend of mine is going to send me her photography text book from college. And I have a friend that is a video and photography junkie, he's going to show me around the camera too.

I'll be posting things as I see fit, please be gentle as this is really a learning experience for me.

I'm checking out a bunch of photography FAQs. I'm getting this [link] tomorrow. I'm really excited. This is going to be my first actual professional camera.

I'm looking forward to learning how to use it and start posting my own work on dA.

LOL! Well I've had this little Olympus for a while now and it's just not going to work for what I want to do. So I'm upgrading. I really shouldn't have, but I had the extra money and nothing else I needed it for so I figured what the heck. Plus it will give me an excuse to get out more often and get some desperately needed exercise.

You're very welcome. My apologies for not leaving a comment. It is a great photograph. I do think you captured the Noir look you were aiming for. Keep up the good work.

I'm getting a new Cannon Digital SLR camera tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have some good stuff to post soon. I'll be focusing more on Architecture and nature/wildlife to start with and moving to macro photography when I have the money to get a proper macro lens.
