I see I haven’t really updated much on here, lately. I suppose that’s because there’s not really too much going on. But I guess a little update is in order.
Photography course:
Hmm, this seems to have taken a back burner. I have completed Unit 1 (I think there are 6 units). Really need to jump back into that. I have to finish my pictures for unit 1. Hopefully can come up with something over my little Disneyland trip (see below). The only picture type I believe I have remaining is the large depth-of-field shot, in which items in the picture up close are in focus as well as those off in the distance.
Photographic purchases:
I like the Minolta 70-210 beercan I purchased. Took a bunch of shots at the Arizona PF Changs Rock ‘n Roll Marathon. I think ability-wise I’m ready to upgrade my camera body to the Sony Alpha A700, but my budget says otherwise. Stupid budget. Maybe for my birthday in June. I think I’m getting really close to wanting to do more portrait/headshot-type work. I’d also like to get the Sigma 70mm f/2.8 EX DG lens, which would work well for portrait work.
Music:
Haven’t played the trumpet in a long time. Need to start doing that again. Maybe I’ll sign on with the Glendale Summer Band again this year. That was fun and the drive would be a little less than when I did it in 2007.
Trips:
Going to Disneyland next week! And the beach! With my sweetie, Sonia! Are you ready, Sweetie? I know I am!
That’s enough for now. I’m hoping to get some fun shots while on my trip!
I’m SO ready!! :)
