For years, I've been talking about getting a good camera and setting my mind to learning it. For years, I've been putting it off as too daunting of a task.
Two days ago, I ordered it.
Tomorrow, it's coming in the mail.
I can't wait to look that shiny little Canon Rebel T4i square in the viewfinder. I'll have a lot to learn, but I'm ready to tackle a new adventure. I'm enjoying this very, very rare phase of life where I actually have some available mental space (what a novelty!). So, here goes: pestering my brother and other talented photographer friends with a steady stream of questions, accosting unsuspecting people to snap their portraits, letting the dinner get cold while I try to photograph it, and totally geeking out over one more thing. And I hope, too, that this will give me a new platform from which to engage a different set of people. I'm ready.
