I'm a creative soul trapped in the body of a type A, obsessive Capricorn. I've been taking snapshots of friends and family for years, writing poetry in hiding, acting as personal shopper to anyone that will take me. I'd like to think that I have an eye for color, and for beauty, no matter what form it takes.

Photography is new to me -- but completely fascinating. I'm looking to learn my camera (and a few others) as fast as I can, so I can make the pictures I see in my head reality.

Please feel free to impart your knowledge on me.

What I have:

Lomo Holga (4/2008)

Lomo Fisheye 2 (4/2008)

Polaroid Land Camera 1000(Modified to take 600 film) (4/2008)

Polaroid Spirit 600

Polaroid Sun 600

Polaroid Colorpack II

Sony DSC T-1 (8/2004)

Canon Rebel Xti (3/2008)

Canon 430EX (6/2008)

Canon 85 mm f/1.8 (7/2008)

Tamron AF 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6(IF) Macro

Bower .42X Super Wide Lens with Macro Converter (just a cheapie toy for my cheapie kit lens) (3/2008)

What I'm looking to get next (in the next couple of weeks):

Time to actually get out with my camera. Between Law School applications, a new boy, and working three jobs, I can't seem to find time for much more than sleep.

(Can anyone make that happen for me ?)
