New Toy!

[Prudence]

We have a family history of photo-taking- well, on my dad's side. Lots and lots of family photos. Birthdays, Christmas, Easter, holiday, school events, plays, dance recitals, band concerts, visiting relatives, you name it, my mom took a photo. It's really cool to have photos from prior generations, and in my fantasies I 1) have descendants and 2) they think it's neat to have photos from my generation. In my family, photos are mostly for the album.

I *want* to also take artsy shots. My uncle's travelling all over the world as a photographer (gets press invites to things, too) in his retirement and does amazing work. And now my brother's been out taking photos of canyons and arches and other such things. So now I want nifty shots for my walls, too.
