the new camera

hello photo-people,

i have bought my camera. no it's not the Olympus E-1 or E-500, it was going to be the Nikon D70, but now it is the Canon 20D.
the camera is huge, so heavy, so pretty *twinkles*

i had this one class on saturday last week, about 'understanding your digital SLR cameras' Rich, my instructor convinced me that i should get the canon. so i got it this monday. took a picture today, i'll put it up soon. i have this assignment to take pictures that reprensent myself, hahahaha that's going to be interesting i can see already.

i feel so camera illiterate when it comes to this camera, and i also hate reading manuals. so now i'm off to read that. wish me luck :D.

the surprise, well part of it.

hey fellow bloggers,

hope this post finds you well and happy. okay so i signed up for these photography courses here at cooper union and today was my first class for 'digital photography' and oh my God, its amazing. i've signed up for to more courses which are 'understanding your SLR camera' and 'architectural photography' but anyway. so yeah my teacher John Enxuto is so awesome. he's given us this whole overview of what we're going to be doing which inculdes a photo shoot in times square and all *jumps with excitement*. as you can see i'm so hyper about this that it's really well - whatever. hahaha. and and and

AND

i am to buy a new digital SLR camera this week (InshAllah!). yep i've pretty much have my heart set on the Olympus E-1. the good Canon ones are too expensive, and i could buy a used one but my dad hates used stuff. so hopefully i am going to buy that one. but other than that i'm so happy. and i'm like the only kid in that class. all of these other people are like professionals in their own respective fields and over with college for the most part. but everyone in my class is really friendly and fun to talk to. so yeah i'll be updating alot - atleast i hope i do, about this course. and ofcourse regularly with new images.

don't worry this time i wll.
