I'm back after how many months? I've no excuse for not blogging other than life getting in the way! Things that have been keeping me busy in no particular order....work, classes, volunteer work, marathon training and my conversion to Judaism.Seems like any free time I have is spent reading, studying, or falling asleep on the sofa!
The last few months I've been training for the Disney Marathon and have till January 10th to get ready for the big event. My longest run has been 13 miles and at this point I can't imagine tacking on another 13. All I can say is that I am thankful for my iPod, audiobooks & podcasts!!
I've just recently taken up digital photography. I was always a point and shoot gal and was never displeased with the pictures but not entirely pleased either.
About 3 weeks ago I picked up my very first DSLR camera and was instantly hooked. I ended up walking out of the shop with A Nikon 3000, camera bag, lens filters, SD cards and of course I had to get a zoom lens!!
I've since taken a couple of classes to learn the basics. My hope is to one day moving beyond "auto" and actually control the camera. I am truly a newbie and am just trying to absorb all that I can so I can create some half way decent photos.
I think I'll start posting some pictures to my blog to track my photo journey. The first is a photo I took after my run in Westport. I ran past these kayaks and knew I had to get back to snap a picture. The colors probably aren't as bright as they could be. Not even sure about the compostion but it's a start!
I've a growing list of pictures I want to take. Can't wait to get up and running!!
