Magnolia Tree Refuge
This is my first entry for this new blog. Let me first say, that I have been blessed with a wonderful family that has provided me with the tools to make this possible. The theme for this blog will be photography. I am a newbie in every sense of the word. The only pictures I have taken before yesterday were with a digital camera that accompanies every low twenty-something or teenager on a fun night out. Unless you count the wind up disposable cameras from childhood!
My grandfather is a photographer. He has given me the privelege of becoming the next photographer in our family. As a graduation/Christmas present (early in May because he just couldn't wait anymore), he has given me a Nikon D5000 Digital SLR camera. Crazy, I know. It gets better... He also gave me two Nikkor lenses for my camera. One VR 55-200mm F4-5.6G and one VR 18-55mm F3.5-5.6G. The picture for today will be the first of many, many beautiful images that will be processed through this amazing equipment.
Here is my first picture. Please look, think, and if you are a photographer... please give a newbie some advice! All comments and suggestions are welcome. The picture was taken literally 15 feet outside my front door in Dallas, TX from the magnolia tree shading my house.
The full picture looks amazing on my Nikon software, but I am not sure how to post equally large and sharp photos to this blog. Hopefully I will have a further understanding of blog workings by my next post so I can post larger, sharper photos.
Thank you all for looking at my blog! I hope you enjoyed it and I will post again soon!
