I'm a 5'2" Bottle-Blonde Baby Boomer (say THAT fast 10 times!!), who absolutely loves traveling and discovering new places and people. I love the beach, rafting down rivers, boating on and swimming in lakes, walking around ponds, discovering sea life in tidal pools, scuba diving in the ocean...just sit me in some water, and I'm happy! My hobbies are digital photography, underwater photography, photoshop, scuba diving, collecting all things nautical/tropical for the house, avid reading, collecting/finding good costume jewelry (this last item is more of an addiction than a hobby!). I still have lots to learn about shooting manually, but hope to learn a great deal more as time goes on from my Gather friendships!
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:
friendships, inspiration, day-to-day wisdom, perhaps some networking - and some instruction on how to shoot manually with my my new Canon 40D (bought 9/25/08 ~ Yahoo!) I took an intermediate digital SLR photography class at our local community college at night last spring, and learned a lot, but now to keep all that information in my head! I'm also a member of the Northeast Texas Photography Club, where I am also getting a lot of great tips and experience. It's great that all these things are available! I highly recommend those of you who are amateur photographers to start taking a class if you haven't learned to shoot manually yet, so you can really see yourself start to grow and improve. I really have had to make myself begin to learn these manual settings, finally, but I'm glad I'm doing it!
Before logging off, I may have forgotten to tell you (Yeah... age I guess) about my podcast. I've been doing doing it for over a year now I think and I'm trying to get the word out about it. Take a listen sometime, tell me what you think and if you like it, tell millions of your friends! (I KNOW you have at least a million friends!) Link is: http://kingdomchild.podbean.com/ and it's available on iTunes also. (For the iPod users)
Hey. I had signed up for facebook a while back, but kept getting tons of spam...so I deleted my account and haven't been back on there since. Hope you're doing well and catching up with all your friends/family.
