Photography

I love taking photos I have since i was a little girl, it's a hobby of mine. I remember being in High School and going on a whale watch and borrowing my moms camera to take pictures. The whales were SOOO close and then when the pictures were developed I was disappointed. Considering that was some 22 years ago :) The camera although a good one for it's time was just a standard 35 mm film camera I don't even think it HAD zoom LOL...and the whales that were so close in real life at the time looked so distant in the pictures. Then and there I asked my parents to buy me my own camera I wanted an SLR camera. I got it too, by then I was dating my husband and he got me an extra lense on top of what my mother and father gave me for Christmas. I STILL have that camera..it's packed away needs a good cleaning. It's all manual, not like my newer Canon Digital SLR. My cameras and I used to be inseperable everywhere I went it was expected for me to have my camera and take pictures. A few years ago my parents moved to Maine, then it was DEMANDED that I take pictures of every occasion to put on Facebook for my Mother to enjoy from afar...she passed away July of last year and since then I haven't really enjoyed or gotten into taken pictures. I do some out of a sense of obligation but feel no real joy in it like I used to. Lately though i've been feeling the itch to get back out there and start snapping again, i've been taking pics for a friend of mine and was suprised when putting on the latest ones...how to me anyway they look almost professional quality. My friend Lara makes awesome Jewelery and that's what i've been photographing. I'll attach a few pics to show you and feel free to join her facebook group http://www.facebook.com/#!/EveryOneUnique whether you buy or not her jewelery is fun and unique to look at :)
