Sunlit texture shot
Last summer I spent an energetic morning sawing off one
of my arms and one of my legs before taking them to the
camera shop and exchanging them for a brand new Canon EOS
300D and two zoom lenses. It has proved a little difficult
changing lenses with only one arm but I manage somehow.
That afternoon I went down to the beach to try it out. I discovered
a nice grungy beach where the local fishermen keep their boats and
within a few minutes took this shot and the next one.
Old bits of wood and rusty nails in the late afternoon sun are
standard fodder for any 'arty' photographer so I made a print of
each and they now hang in my lounge.
Needless to say I am delighted with the quality of the Canon and
am now a happy convert to the digital age. I'm still a bit concerned
about the storage of digital images but the manufacturers seem to
be working hard to come up with solutions. In the meantime I'll
keep buying bigger and bigger hard drives.
