Learning How to Focus






Rodolfo surprised me with my belated birthday gift this weekend-- a new camera! I love it and have a ridiculous quantity of information to learn! The camera automatically focuses, but I think I need to learn to focus manually as well so that these images can have even cleaner lines. Photography is definitely a satisfying hobby when you have a child. I could take pictures all day long if people didn't need to eat, sleep and have baths. Grampy Max used to enjoy this hobby as well. He has some darling photos of my mom and Aunt Janie. I should pull those out and scan them-- gotta remember that the next time Georgia and I pay them a visit. Yesterday as I was taking pictures it occured to me that I have many satisfying hobbies. Besides photography there is gardening, reading, traveling, languages, yoga, running, cooking and my shameful indulgence-- http://www.people.com/. It is difficult to find time for all of these things but to dabble in them here and there as time permits is a real treat!
