Whitney and I did a little exploring of our adopted hometown this weekend and I was able to bring my camera along for the fun.
I love photography. It is the perfect way to engage with the interesting places I have found myself in over the years. The only problem I seem to have with it is my lack of budget (for better gear), and inferiority complex due to my extremely gifted friends (Jeff, Tom, Adam, Paul, others).
O well, I guess some day I’ll have the time to learn more about it. Also, I really need to replace my D50 because the flash just doesn’t work (external flashes don’t fix the problem either). More & better lenses wouldn’t hurt either.
My photos of the Pumpkin patch turned out better than those at the “Pirates of the Canyon” ballooning event down in Palo Duro State Park:
Despite having a tripod, I ran out of time and patience to properly steady my camera and get the perfect exposure settings for these daybreak photos at the canyon:
Maybe my $20 Wal-Mart tripod just isn’t good enough.
