Dear all Steemit Friends :-
Canon Camera.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm just being a jerk with a fun little call back to this and this.
The difference is, of course that instead of a photo of a magazine of a camera, THIS IS MY ACTUAL CAMERA!
I have to thank Steem Bestie for this absolutely incredible post which made me think all the thoughts about getting me back into Photography. He helped me decide which camera would be best for me... and totally talked me down off the ledge when I had accidentally purchased a Sigma lens for a Sigma camera and couldn't work out how to attach it.
and
have also been absolutely smashing me with photographic awesomeness and just generally supportive and kind words. If you haven't checked them out, please do, you probably won't regret it.
I also need to thank who told me about a super cheap 75mm to 300mm lens to help round out my kit. I feel like I'm photographically ready to take on the Grand Canyon in early Feb.
also totally inspired me to look into starscape photos which I am really, really excited about, especially since our place is so far from the city.... except... rain in Portland, who woulda thunk it?
These two lads have gotten together with all round supportive and super friendly to create
which I am really excited about. It basically curates great photos... and the photos highlighted so far have been stunning. This (if I'm good enough) will also help me transition into a full time Steemazoid in the second half of this year. I'm definitely inspired to get shooting again, and no amount of thanks will be enough for the creative improvement in my life you've all brought me thus far.
STOP WITH THE WORDS AND PHOTO US ALREADY !
Here you go cranky... this is literally the first photo I've taken with my new camera...
It's not even really in focus, and that plant is in the way, and I used the cheap lens... but look at that guy being all weird and stare-y... although in his defense I never asked his permission to take his photo... and we all know how deer-celebrities feel about the papp.
Anyway, bit of a nothing post, but I'm just super excited about the photographic world opening up to a dude again.
