A New Camera- A Big Purchase For Me
I’ve always enjoyed photography as a hobby. As a kid my first camera was a Fisher price 35mm camera. It was actually pretty decent despite being a “kids” camera. In fact it performed until I was grown and moved out of my childhood home. In more recent years I always keep my phone’s camera handy and even chosen my cell phone around the camera attached to it. On my recent trip to Myrtle Beach I decided I want to do more with photography than I have been. That meant choosing a new camera and learning a few new skills… Many choices- Had to settle on one!

Sunrise Sessions: A Project in Photography and Optimism!
Since the original inspiration to really getting going on this whole blog thing was how inspired I was doing my sunrise photography sessions this past February in Myrtle Beach I’ve decided maybe that could inspire someone else during this time of isolation. Of course, I don’t permanently live on the beach, but a sunrise can be quite inspiring anywhere. (I say that despite not being a morning person AT ALL) I’ve always enjoyed photography. It’s time to explore this medium in more depth. This will be an adventure in its own right- starting to learn a rudimentary skill with a bit more depth. But more than that, walking around pursuing…
