Lots of fun, and super dreamlike. <BR/><BR/>Zoe-Yes, some people really love the darkroom. I'm not such a huge fan of it: I'm less technical and more immediate gratification, thus digital is great for me. I'd love to see your photos! Post them!<BR/><BR/>Tricia-I thought of that while posting. You are so right. <BR/><BR/>Cuisine bonne femme-I'm so glad to see you here! I use a Canon Rebel and I love it for its smaller size for a camera of its kind. It's auto focus is a little rough however. But I do love it. And I love that I have a brother in law who works for Canon and I got it on discount. :) <BR/><BR/>Shelly-That's a good friend to have! <BR/><BR/>Rozanne-You know the pain! And yes, it's very coincidental we posted about cameras on the same day. I haven't taken photos on the edge of the Grand Canyon, but RSG has!<BR/><BR/>Patti-Thank you. :)<BR/><BR/>And overall apologies for the over use of exclamation points in this comment. I blame it on the cold weather.LeLohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15073317400749817075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-3652797928417928712007-11-15T12:11:00.000-08:002007-11-15T12:11:00.000-08:00Wow I would have never guessed you failed photogra...Wow I would have never guessed you failed photography in college.

My dad and my aunt and uncle were all hard-core amateur photographers. Oh, the slide shows of Greece, the posing for "professional" studio portraits taken by Uncle Wally under glaring, hot spot lights that hurt my eyes and made me sweat. Yeah, I know what you're talking about!<BR/><BR/>So much has changed. For the better! <BR/><BR/>Sorry to dump so much baggage in your comments box--I didn't even know I had it until I read your excellent post.<BR/><BR/>That's a gorgeous photo at the top of the post, by the way. <BR/><BR/>P.S. Funny we both (sort of) blogged about cameras yesterday.Rozannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04536916678337782615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-90253265332951231022007-11-15T08:37:00.000-08:002007-11-15T08:37:00.000-08:00I love shooting!

Ah, some day.<BR/><BR/>We just bought a new camera a few weeks ago and I am totally intimidated by it. I know I won't learn how to use it until I just pick up and start shooting, but it's almost like I don't even know where to begin.Zoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13243666555055966517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-89952200452907626962007-11-14T20:19:00.000-08:002007-11-14T20:19:00.000-08:00That really is the wonder of photography and why I...That really is the wonder of photography and why I enjoy it so much.<BR/><BR/>I love macro. Even with my new L-series glass, I love my macro lens the most. You have one of the Lensbabies? I have been so curious about those for a while now. How do you like it?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10934361605188716826noreply@blogger.com
