Accomplisment?


After several weeks of wading through classified ads on the internet, I purchased my first DSLR; a 12.2 megapixel Canon XSi. I managed to find it used from a guy on KSL for $400. For that price I got the Camera with all of the materials that came with it, a nice image stabilization lens and a book about photography using that specific camera. I feel like I got a pretty good deal. The camera is in really great shape and is only a little over a year old. I’ve been working with a Canon EOS 50D at work doing some macro-photography for marketing photos and a few other things at work some I am at least somewhat familiar with how the camera works. Yesterday I did my first official photo-shoot. With my parent’s anniversary coming up in a few days I thought it might be fun to get a more recent photo of them. We went down to the Jordan River Temple grounds and shot some very nice photos of them. It was a lot of fun. We spent about 20 minutes taking a little over 100 pictures and then close to 2 hours trying to decide which one to use. It was a lot of fun. Hopefully something will turn out. :)
