Great stories everyone!
Mine is kind of simple. I've always been a gadget geek. I liked the buttons and lights. I wanted to know what everything did as most kids do.
I remember my parents having a Cannon A-1 about 20 or 25 years ago. They would let me use it on occasion and I considered it quite a treat. I remember sitting in the back seat of the car and reading the manual on the way to an event.
I have always been intrigued by photography as an art. Each picture means different things to different people. Each person has their own take on what the photo means to them. From a portrait of a loved one to abstract images...each one can invoke an emotion.
Pictures are everywhere. You can't surf the net with out being bombarded by images. Each one different and unique. No two the same. That's one of the most amazing things to me...
I never really thought that I had a passion for it until I bought a decent camera. Last year I bought a D90 for a 2 month trip to Israel. I took a lot of snapshot style photos. There were a few that had a little bit more thought in them...I really had fun.
When I got back to the states I started to realize that I had a little more for photography and decided to take is seriously.
I'm still trying to find my style and my groove. Always working on it. I don't go to far without my camera any more. I just started a 365 project to push myself to the next level. I eat, sleep and breath with this camera next to me. It drives my girlfriend nuts!!!!
I am looking forward to what the next year brings and the 365 should be an interesting way to see my progress.
Keep shooting!
