It was a little over a year ago that I got my first real nice camera for myself. It is a Nikon D5000 which if you don’t know is one of their DSLR models. I had the kit lens for the longest time but in recent months I have purchased a zoom and macro lens to accompany it. What started as a hobby has turned into me spending almost every free minute that I have taking photographs. I am not going to lie I was pretty bad in the beginning. I was only used to point and shoot cameras and the adjustment period I went through was long. While I do have automatic settings that I can use I refused to do it and did everything on manual mode. It took a lot and I mean a lot of trial and error before I was taking good shots consistently. I really would like to try to make some money off of photography but I don’t have a niche yet. I have shown my pictures to a lot of different people and everyone last one of them likes what they see so I do know I have some talent.
Anyways that is the major thing going on in my life right now. When I am not taking pictures I am editing them which is what I was doing before I started to write this. When I am done with this I want to do some research on online storage for some of my better ones. I am going to start by checking out a review zipcloud as I have heard good things about them. I think my friend Adam uses them but I could be wrong. I haven’t seen him in a couple of weeks but last time I talked to him I think that is what he said.
What I would really like to do is eventually get one of my works published somewhere. I wouldn’t even care if I didn’t get paid for it. It would just be so neat to see my name credited somewhere. My other friend Jason told me I should start going to the local horse track and getting shots of the horses running. I don’t know about that but it would be something different. I told him next time he goes to give me a heads up and I might tag along with him.
