Novice with passion....I guess that is the best way to describe my photography. When I requested a camera for my birthday, I expected a small, cute, point and click camera. To my surprise I received a camera with multitudes of buttons and with symblols written on it everywhere. I almost exchanged it as I had no idea how to operate it let alone feel comfortable using it. But...from the moment I took my first photo, I fell in love and haven't put it down since. A whole new world is opening up before me. I don't inspire to be the best photographer in the world, but to be the best I can in my world.
