I enjoy wandering with my camera and losing myself through the lens. I'm no pro by any means, which is why I delighted in the advent of digital - I've wasted so much film trying to be sure ONE of them would come out right...
My cameras:
DSLR: Fuji S2 Pro
Macro lens: Tamron SP 90mm 1:2.8
Wide-angle lens: Tamron SP 20-40mm 1:2.7-3.5
Point-and-shoot 1: Canon PowerShot S70
I love them both, and usually use the Canon for the wider-angle shots because it goes wider than the Tamron wide-angle lens (crippled by the CCR's range). It's also easier to bring hiking. =)
Added to these is a Canon PowerShot S5, which I've fallen completely in love with. It makes excellent macros when combined with the Raynox DCR-250, has a decent zoom, and is really easy to take on hikes.
I hope you enjoy this collection of the photos I've taken that I like the best or find interesting enough to share. I know I'm enjoying meeting people and seeing photos here, and can feel the experience already teaching me to see, inspiring me to find the beauty in more mundane subjects than I normally do, and to branch out in my subject matter. Hopefully with this practice I will get better! Thanks to all for your input. =)
