I'm one hot potato! -- not really

So the past few years I have started to enjoy the meaning in photographs, the memories that come along with them, and the good ole saying, "a picture is worth a thousand words." This is obviously true, and out of it I have gained a hobby. I hope to eventually get enough of my own pictures together to one day create a portfolio. For now, I call myself a beginner and I can't always get my ideas or creativity through my camera lens.
