Look What I Got!

New Camera - My First dSLR, originally uploaded by CraftyGuy.

I received a package today from my awesome photographer friend Carol in Austin, TX. In that package was this nifty new (for me) camera.

Carol had recently gotten a new camera, and knew that I could and would most happily provide a good home for her old camera - a Canon 300D (the original Rebel). A sweet piece of equipment indeed!

Prior to this, I have never owned - let alone used - a dSLR camera before; I had been using a Kodak EasyShare C340 (your basic point-and-shoot type) up until this time. I know I gots me some learning to do in order to use this new baby to its fullest potential, so if my photos take a temporary dip in quality (as if they could dip any lower), you'll know why - so don't you be blamin' the camera!!

Happy, happy, joy, joy!
Happy, happy, click, click!

Almost Done

Day 364: 2007 11 08 - My Wenis, originally uploaded by CraftyGuy.

For the past 364 days, I have been participating in a "take a photo of yourself everyday for a year" project on Flickr, called "365 Days" (how original).

Anyhow, I am almost done, and I've been getting more comfortable in front of the camera as a result.

...maybe TOO comfortable perhaps...?

I figured since I am nearly done, I would get really, really daring.

That's right - I exposed my wenis on the Internet for all to see!
