Takeing photos has been a passion since my grandmother gave me her Canon AE1 when I was in high school. Learned a lot from taking yearbook photos and being YB Editor my senoir year. Upgraded to a Canon EOS 650 when I graduated. Swore I wouldn't get a digital until I could get quality photos from it. Finally got Canon EOS 40D several years ago and haven't looked back. I have done a few friends weddings and some Senoir Pictures. But all has been as only a hobby that I hope one day expand on. Until then I think this new program is a perfect match for me as I have always wanted to paint and never seem to have the time to learn.
