Its been just over a year since I got my first camera. A Pentax X90. It was nothing fancy, just a basic bridge camera. It had manual mode, aperture and shutter priority and that was about it really. That didn't really bother me really, at the time I had no idea what any of them meant or what to do with them. However, after a few weeks of trial and error along with many hour reading books that were way above my skill level, I managed to learn what they all did.
        I can remember the first proper time that took out my camera and took some pretty decent photos. My parents took me to the "Blue bell woods". To be honest... It went terribly. I had no idea what I was doing, but that's the whole point of photography in my opinion, you have to keep working on it and improving. I wondered around a lot that day, just taking random pictures in the priority settings and by the end of the day i released photography was not as easy as i thought it would be. As you can probably see, they are no where near perfect, but not bad for a first try really. It was that first day that I realised that this, photography, was what i wanted to do with my life.
