Do you ever feel like a lifetime is crammed into a whole week ?
Well It sure feels that way for me this week and I don't know why ..I haven't had any more to do than normal ..nothing extra or out of the normal happened this week, but it's felt like this week crawled by at a snail's pace and that a whole lot of everything got crammed into it.
One Fun thing that got crammed into this week that I hadn't planned on was a little gift to myself. Something I have wanted for a very long time but wouldn't splurge on .. as I don't often shop for myself. I'm a pretty simple gal and have always required very little. But this week I dove in head first and made a purchase ...
This Beautiful Cannon Rebel Camera.
I have wanted to upgrade from my point and shoot camera for a few years now. But between cost and lack of knowledge on how to run one of these DSLR camera's I kept going to Costco or Sam's Club for groceries and staring at them as I walked by even stopping to pick them up and look them over and read the tags on them .. and then continued on with my shopping.
So this week as I headed into Sam's Club for my groceries .. I saw that this sweet camera was on Sale .. reduced by $100- .. that along with the fact it came in a bundle pack with a nice large memory card an extra lens, carry case, etc. I was instantly Sold.
Now I still lack the knowledge of how to run this camera ...but that's going to all fade away over the next month as I enrolled in a couple classes that are going to teach me how to use this camera to a tee and I can't wait ..because I want to take some of those fabulous up close photographs I see here on the net ..but that my little point and shoot just wouldn't produce. Don't get me wrong my point and shoot has been awesome .. I have had it for 5 years and it's a bit clunky in size compared to the new slim line style P&S's today ..but it's taken a lot of great picts for me and has been durable and lasted a long time. I'll still be using it while I'm learning how to use the Rebel.
I have always loved photography ..in fact I took a class way back in high school for it but became ill and ended up spending my last few years of HS .. in home study so I didn't get to complete those classes ..and didn't pursue it any further after that ..so now I look forward to being able to do so all theses years later.
I'll let you all know how my classes go .. and I can't wait to start shooting some beautiful photo's and sharing them here on the blog with you all.
Come Join me tomorrow for ~N~ the Kitchen with Sweet Magnolias Farm...
