Theme 310 - Camera

Goodbye Old Friend

Here is my much loved Canon 350D in the hands of her proud new owner.  This shot was taken on the day of handover and converted into B&W in Lightroom.  

It's OK though, despite my current doldrums with photography, I haven't given up - I have upgraded to the 40D and a rather nice lens, an EFS 17-55mm f2.8 IS USM.  All in all,  a big investment for me and a commitment to continue to work at this passion.

I feel that I am setting myself up with this post, to produce much better photos - but I think that will take a while.  I need to develop my creative side more.  This 366 Challenge is also proving to be a great learning curve, not just from taking the photos, but also looking at everyone else's blogs, which contain some fantastic images - and latterly the links to other fabulous photography sites that are being posted.

So thank you all, I may not always have the time to comment individually, but I look and admire all of your 366 Challenge blogs and appreciate each and every one of them.

That's such a nice picture but sort of sad, isn't it? I know you're going to love the 40D. Enjoy!

Nothing quite as exciting as the first one so it does hurt a bit to say good-bye.... at least until you have that wonderful 40D in your hands next!

Nice image Linda.
