I am happy to announce I finally have a new camera! You will be seeing less of my cellphone pictures here. The ones with lots of noise. Now, it will only be with less noise. Why are night-time shots so hard to take…-__-”.

Anyhow, here it is! I couldn’t take a picture of my camera with my camera….oh…I guess I could have used a mirror. Oh well. ^_^

It comes with the oh so yummy gimmiky smile shutter! I haven’t even tried it yet. I probably will never use it. I guess it’s another way to take a remote picture instead of the timer. This camera is not for emo kids, that’s for sure. haha. You can buy an underwater housing for this camera, and it has a preset for underwater pictures that make the scene brighter. I’ve always wanted to take pictures underwater….

Did you know Viggo Mortenson (from Lord of the Rings) is also a photographer? He has a book of pictures taken underwater. I know this because my World Lit teacher in 12th grade loved Viggo and for her birthday, another teacher got her the photo book.

Sometimes I flirt with the idea of getting an expensive DSLR like my dad and my brother and everyone else who actually take good pictures but…when it comes down to it, it’s not practical for me. I’m not going to lug around something so big and I don’t really know how to use one…and that requires more things for me to learn and I have enough projects I need to get done. If I really wanted to, I’m sure I could borrow one of my dad’s cameras (he has 2 of them now, one for normal distance, one for far away -__-”) to take special shots. My dad will preset it for me. teeheehee…. …             ..

oh! And a tripod makes a big difference! I should get a tiny one at least.
