photography

Don't know how many of yall are into photography but it is a favorite past time of mine. I'm a member of a site that just got started last year. Only a little over 200 members but it is growing. Good site for amateurs wanting to learn more and post some of there photos. Here is the link. Thats my photo on the home page. They picked it to use for a while. I took it on one of my trips to Japan.

I take a few pics. Im currently looking for a new wide angle lens for my Canon EOS 40D. Seems I end up taking more pics with the G9 just because its just so easy to just pop it out of the case and shoot.

I just bought my first dslr a few months ago. A canon Rebel. I love the camera but wish I could afford the lenses I want!

Will have to check it out, went looking for a Nikon D60 over the holidays and walked away with a Fuji S5 Pro, Nikon 18-200 mm VR, Speedlight SB-600, Lowepro Sling case...this could get just as expensive as my truck . Well maybe...

I will see if I can reach the bar.

I just got to remember that the beauty of a good picture is what I see, the beauty of a great picture is when someone else sees it through my eyes...
