No....you don't say (sarcasm insert here)! And I wanted my first photography post to be an interesting one. But I am just going to go start with a simple get-to-know-you type post to kick things off.<br />
<ol><li>I am not a professional (though I would love to be).</li>
<li>I am partial to Canon but have love for all things photography.</li>
<li>Thanks to my mom, I own a Canon DSLR - EOS Rebel XSi but am eyeing the Canon 40D.</li>
<li>I also use a Canon Powershot point-and-shoot when the situation requires.</li>
<li>I have a few different lenses for my Rebel, including the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Lens (for killer background blur), a macro and wide angle lens attachment, and a telephoto lens. I crave many more though!</li>
<li>I edit with Adobe Photoshop CS4, but hear that Adobe Elements is great for the average user (and definitely more affordable).</li>
</ol>I am a firm believer that with all of the editing software out there, it is easier to produce a great picture, but I think it takes some talent (and practice) to capture a great raw photo - perspective, lighting, space, color. That is always what I <em>try </em>to do; editing comes into play when that <em>doesn't </em>happen naturally though :) More times than not, I must admit...<br />
<br />
I am still very much experimenting with my camera and all of its capabilities, as well as those within Photoshop, so I will post my experiences and finds here, letting you know how it all turns out. Until next time, happy picture-taking!Chelsea Davis Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15520608193004083273noreply@blogger.com0
