Digital Photography

My latest all-consuming passion is digital photography. I'm taking a class, and as part of that we have to keep a photo blog... I find myself posting to it even when I don't have to :-) just because I find the whole concept of 'writing with light' absolutely fascinating.

It doesn't stop when I talked my guy into lettin gme buy a fancy SLR camera, either. I've started to spend our money on lenses and external flashes, additional memory and USB drives to carry images to and from class. I've been lugging a tripod around, trolling the photography section in bookstores (the photo to the left is from a book of flower portraits by Joyce Tenneson - I wrote about it in my photo blog today), and lusting after out of print classics.

But most of all I am looking at everything with an eye to capturing it in visual verse... watching light, stalking it, ready to click my adoration at the perfect moment.

If you like images too, come play with me on Flickr and see the images I've uploaded there. Write to me and tell me about your work.

Your pictures are inthisotherworldly.  Mama gave me a little camera for Christmas, and i've enjoyed using it so far (makes up for the old AE1 that sits enshrined in my gobag).

Have fun.

Thanks John! I wish I could take credit for this one, but it's Joyce Tenneson's… cool, eh? You should see her others… just amazing.
