forget about learning to take better photographs, just take more photos

I'm in 15 months ago

I hope to start doing this, I swear (or affirm?)

I’ve been looking at really sexy new cameras, but we’ll see what happens, money-wise, with my financial situation (since I’ve been off work since July 23rd, without pay, and disability hasn’t kicked in yet)

But, I still have a handheld little sony camera… what’s wrong with me? Even when I travel, I always sit on the plane on the way home, kicking myself for not taking enough pictures!

I suck.

LL is EXCITED! Matty got his visa!!

I need to do this, too.

For a while there, I carried my little camera with me everywhere, and still took hardly any photos.

What really brought this home, was looking for pics of Matty and I together for our visa application. A lot of the time we simply forgot to take any photos. (When we did take them, often they were of one or the other of us, but not both. Not very useful for the immigration people.)

I keep drooling over lenses I’d like to buy for my SLR, but I can’t really justify them if I’m not utilising the camera enough.

Catch 22?

I do the same.
I keep thinking that with more gizmos, or a digital SLR (oooh) I would take more pictures, but would I really?

I dunno.

Yeah, my hubby and I have always said that about ourselves…we have maybe three photos together (for twenty years…not bad)

We’re trying to do more photos together, too.

Hey, would testimonials from us help? Letters stating how we know you? :D

I’d be willing to help in any way I could!!

Please let me know…I’m just laying on the couch, rehabilitating!

And we had that camera with us!

Dang! Right there in Emeryville…

I maybe even thought about it, but you never know when the camera is just plain intrusive, so …

But does your rehab include leaving the sofa yet???

oh sure

I’ve been walking, and taking the pooch for a walk, but he had a little episode of dizzy spells for a few days and so we weren’t walking him outside much.

I thought it was the big one, as he woke us up Sunday night and was toppling over. I thought he had had a stroke, and he couldn’t stand up, but he got better in a few hours, so I called the vet the next morning and talked to him…we concluded it didn’t sound like a stroke (since he had had some improvement) but likely some type of inner ear thing.

So, today, finally, we went around the block a few times.

I never can be brave enough to pull out the camera.

Plus, I hate my face and NEVER take a decent picture (or, it’s very rare)
