When we lived in Wyoming I had a friend that loved photography and I loved the pictures she took. When it came time for me to get a new camera over 18months ago I went ahead and bought a nice one. One that I could eventually learn to do photography with. In that time I've never taken a picture out of the "Green Box" or auto setting. However, my sister in law Michelle sent me a video to help me understand this piece of equipment and today I sat down and watched in again and unlike the first time I watched it, this time it didn't go completely over my head!!! So, I played around a little today with my camera off auto settings and had so much fun! Here are a couple of pictures I decided to keep! Trey had fun during this time because I let him play with all the DVD's. One of his favorite games.

GREAT job sis!I know that it can be scary and a lot of work, but look how worth it it was. Looks like you get good natural light in your house. Not me! My inside pics aneed some work. The pics are great and I can't wait to see more (hint,hint). What a great model you had too! Handsome little guy!
I don't want to be presumptuous about who that friend might be, but let's be honest. About 90% of what I shoot is on auto setting! It's actually just been over the last few weeks that I've decided to "step outside of the box" a bit and I've been using manual a lot more. But now that I've been more courageous I think I like it and I'm learning so much more. Your pictures look great! Keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing so much more. What kind of camera did you get?
