Photo Shoot

Today consisted of hanging out with my good friend Justin Barr as we trekked around downtown Redlands, trying to hone in our photography skills. It has been so long since I've gone out shooting just for fun, and I had a lot of fun doing it. While we were on our shoot, we ran into some skater kids who were more than eager to have us take pictures of them riding. It was quite a wood-shedding experience for me, too! It's been a while since I've put my camera abilities to the test. And let's just say I have a long way to go before I can feel confident about calling myself a real photographer. But nonetheless, I'm happy that I have my little Canon Rebel. After today, though, I'm tempted to look into some more specialized equipment like a fixed lens...or a telephoto lens...or an external flash. Someday maybe? But for now, I can dream.
