Picture Time!

 I got a "new" camera yesterday for my birthday.  I have been helping my sister with her photography, and she decided to give me one of her cameras as a gift.

 I spent spurts of time today playing with my new toy.  I have only played a bit with ISOs and different settings.  Up until now I mostly dealt with my little point-and-shoot canon.  My sister has been showing me different things as we go to different events for jobs.

 I had a lot of fun playing with different settings.  The kids were nice enough to humor me, even though I could see them sighing and trying to hide groans.

 Megan was the most enthusiastic... for a bit.  I realized quickly that I have quite a bit to learn about the settings.  I learned that what looked good on my camera screen looked different once downloaded to my computer.  Many of the pictures were way too light.

 This is a learning process for me, and I look forward to learning all I can.  My husband is a little afraid I will break him with lenses and accessories.  I probably won't be purchasing those items for a bit.  My sister let me borrow a lens for now.

 I have always loved taking pictures.  Up until my sister took up photography, I was the one in the family with a camera always in front of her face.  My sis is extremely talented.  It's odd to be learning from my little sis, but sometimes that is just how things work out.
