I'm excited!


My husband's work was holding a contest for pictures to put in a calendar. The top 3 won gift cards the other 16 will just be in the calendar. I didn't win one of the top 3 but I WILL be in the calendar. I'm thrilled. I've only been learning how to use a dslr for a year but I've read and learned and had a lot of patience trying to get focus, exposure and everything right. I've got a whole lot to learn but it's nice to know once in a while it all comes together and I get a good shot. I've got to shout out a big THANK YOU to you peas as I have leaned a ton here.
