It's pretty exciting around here...I've gotten a new camera. A Canon, EOS Rebel T1i 500D. It's a digital SLR and is really beautiful. A friend has lent me a lens to try and I'm just starting to learn functions, etc. The last camera that I really enjoyed was my Canon AE1, 35 mm film camera. It was simple. Basic. I loved it. It was easy to use, everything was aparent, with no menus or complicated settings. A short novel came with the new camera and with some time I hope to be able to take some nice photos, including images for my Etsy stores. So far I've only had one willing model:

He's going to read the manual while I'm at work today and let me know the fundamentals when I get home.
Shop news: I've been busy lately taking some time for vacation and relaxing. I haven't mowed my lawn for about 7 weeks (it's actually not that bad..only in spots). I'm also busy with a personal sewing project that is taking an inordinate amount of time. Soon I will be listing new things in the shop....soon :)

Lovely to see you back, Brie. Your photo of your willing model is gorgeous and I will look forward to more shots here with your incredible camera! Your model looks smart enough to take on the assignment of translating the manual!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful model :O) have fun with your new camera... good choice :O)
ReplyDeletePlease tell Thomas, after he finishes looking through the manual and getting the tips for you, to please write a tutorial for all of us photo-challenged photographers! ...*Teehee*...I have so much trouble...might as well learn from a cat!! ^_^
