I love taking photos of flowers in my garden, especially macro. my niece's husband showed me his new digital SLR and I had camera envy. So...I hopped on e-bay and bought a used Canon 300d. In February 2009 I bought a new Canon XSi -

"I wish more people felt that photography was an adventure the same as life itself and felt that their individual feelings were worth expressing. To me, that makes photography more exciting."
Harry Callahan. . . . . . . . . .


"To be a photographer, one must photograph. No amount of book learning, no checklist of seminars attended, can substitute for the simple act of making pictures. Experience is the best teacher of all. And for that, there are no guarantees that one will become an artist. Only the journey matters.."
Harry Callahan

So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.
