JP and I drove by this tree a few days ago and she wanted to come back to take a picture of it. It's a really pretty tree and sits by itself (poor tree).

 

She taught me something called zoom burst, which I tried here. It isn't a great attempt, but hey! I love learning new things from fellow photog friends, so I'll give it another try soon.

 

Photography has really become a fun hobby for me and one I've stuck with the longest (I'm horrible at keeping hobbies...I have two unfinished scrapbooks as proof). I think what I love the most about photography is learning new things and seeing what I can do with what I have.

 

In a perfect world, I'd have the best L-series lenses out there. Reality is that I have things to pay for and a life to lead, and I think I've come to peace that I'll make do with what I have.

 

...'Course, if someone wants to buy me a really sweet wide angle lens, I wouldn't mind adding that to my collection. Just sayin'....
