As evinced by the absence of new posts these past few months, things have been busy. I finally went out today to spend some time behind the lens as the weather turned unseasonably warm. Upon returning home and reviewing the photographs I made on the hike, I discovered that this last one is the 4,000th shot I have made with the Canon 450D. Remarkably, tomorrow marks three years to the day since I purchased the camera. I realize that 4,000 shots is nothing for a professional photographer. So what? I shoot for myself, for the joy of connecting with what I see and experience in nature. I have averaged better than 1,300 a year, and a few of the photographs have even been pretty good. I probably shot less than 1,300 photos on chrome over the seven years that I was working with a Canon A-1 and Velvia. It has been a good three years.
