Aw Shoot!

Photography is something that excites just about everyone. I’ve been very keen on photography for a a very long time now. I can’t say I am consistent, thats where I’d like to be but I certainly am persistent. About five years ago I bought a “DigiLittle” camera (term coined by my son Kabir) and have been using it extensively. Some of my friends think I take too many pictures and others feel that they are still too less. But they all seem to expect me to be carrying it all the time and as soon as I’m back home they expect to see the results on the gallery. Over the past few months I decided to get a little more serious about photography and went and got myself a digital SLR (Nikon D70S). The camera is great, but I realised that I have actually forgotten everything about photography and picked up bad habits too. Composing a photo by looking into the LCD screen rather than the conventional way of looking into a viewfinder being one of them. I also realised that I have not used an SLR for over 17 years. So its learning time all over again, understanding exposure, aperture, shutter and all the nuances. It is great fun and some day I hope to get more consistent in the meantime wish me luck!

Cheers…Kishore

PS: One reason this post was delayed was I needed to integrate my gallery with Wordpress, but thats another story!
