Me? I’m a photography nut. I love taking pictures. This all started when I was a kid. I had the infamous Kodak 110 and the Polaroid “shoot the picture out, coat with preservative” type, and 35mm Canon. Then I discovered digital. WOW! is all I can say. My first digital was a Kodak 2.5 megapixel. It was great for its time. Since then I have advanced some, currently owning a Kodak 10.1 megapixel camera with a wonderful zoom lens on it. I love being able to “see” my pictures BEFORE I print them and know that they are in the camera. Even though the 35mm was versitile, I didn’t know until the film was developed whether or not a particular picture was going to be good or not, or if the camera was working properly, etc. That can be a bummer if you’ve gone on vacation with a non-functioning 35mm and you don’t know it until you get back home.

I also love being able to print my own pictures, edit them, enhance them, or delete them (especially if they are crappy). I have a free photo editing program, PhotoScape, which allows me to play with my photos, create cards, scrapbook pages, etc. You can find this free program on the web.

Thought I better add to this as I have been posting mostly on knitting lately. Knitting is one of my most favorite things to do in addition to taking pictures. And I love taking pictures of things I have knitted.

Lately, I have been doing crochet tutorials for a friend who is a beginner. The hardest part is taking pics of each step of the process and getting them just right so that they are “understandable”.

Every year I enter our local fair a knitted item and have been forturnate enough to win blue ribbons. Makes me happy. This past year I entered a knitted purse and, for the first time, several photos. I won a blue ribbon for the purse and a blue ribbon for one of the photos. So I will continue to do both and enter both in our fair. And I encourage all of you to try it. You never know, you may come home with a blue ribbon or two.
