My first camera as a child was a little Kodak cartridge film 'freebie' from Weetabix! And I absolutely loved it.
years later, I moved on to a Praktica, which served me well all through art college and beyond. I loved that too. I recently took the plunge into the world of DSLR with a Pentax K-r and my love of photography is now complete!
I have begun to photograph in manual settings which is really helping to develop my photography skills.
I'm thoroughly enjoying the creative challenge of a blip a day and being part of such a friendly photographic community. It's an inspiration. Thank you!
