WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menootandabootery; Camera Captures

When having to visit the Council offices a wee while ago, I took the chance to air the camera. It really hasn't been getting much use of late.






I played around with settings and next Me-Now-Views day, you'll see the results. Since taking these, my father has generously passed on his DSLR (Canon EOS350D) to me. He can no longer make use of it.

This is a chance to return to full photographer ways; the camera is a mere 8mp quality in imagery, for it is not young. However, I can now relearn some of what has been forgotten, and have a good play around to see if I can get anything anywhere near the standard of the Fudge, or the wee Hisstix! It'll be a while before I have anything to show you, so keep breathing...

Meanwhile, remember that next Friday is Final Friday!!!

  2. oh yay for the dslr. I miss mine so much.. I made the choice to not buy another one and chose the wrong one, a Nikon 60. doesn't matter if it is old, they are still great cameras. have fun. I LOVE the second shot, that top part that is rounded caught my fancy

  3. I have a nice fancy camera and even managed to find another lens to go with it (found it on the bus and when the tourists had left and nobody had enquired after it, I asked to have it and that was fine), but I know so little about it. I would love to learn a bit more, but would need some lessons. One day, when the madness has passed...
