Enjoying Photography
My husband spoilt me with a a brand new Digital SLR Camera for Christmas. It’s a Nikon D90 and takes lots of photos in quick succession (up to 100 which it buffers then saves to the memory card) so it now means I can take action shots without having to wait for my camera to catch up with me and be ready. I found that most frustrating when out at Mountain Bike Races with my husband.
Anyway, I have a photo blog so I won’t post many photos here, but thought I’d share a small number with you, to give you some idea of what I’ve been doing. If you click on the image below you’ll see an album of shots I have loaded at Facebook. This picture is of Shadow, one of our cats. Amazing what you find in the garden, isn’t it?
I’m thinking I might print some of these and frame them or see if I can put them on items such as mugs, cards, posters and such and sell them. What do you think?
Photography is something I’ve always enjoyed and I used to belong to a club many years ago – before I started my business. I’m hoping to pick it up again soon. As our children fly the coop and Graham and I become ‘empty nesters’ I find I want to spend more time outside and in the country. And my new camera will become my constant companion – after all I have to show hubby just how much I appreciate his gift to me, don’t I? 
Miriam was my stepdaughter and had been in my life since she was 5 years old. She was a big part of my life and she leaves a big hole. She was so vibrant, full of energy, lived life to the full, always pushed the limits – she was our tomboy who followed her dad around everywhere. She was his mate and they rode their mountain bikes together and did so much together. It will be a long time before the pain and ache begins to subside.
