I’ve gotten behind on posting again, but to be honest that’s because nothing has really been going on. Kris and I went down to NJ on Saturday and Sunday we went to her grandmother’s for her mom’s birthday. Other than that we’ve both been working hard.
I need to pay my taxes soon, I am waiting (and hoping) that most of the people that owe me money pay me soon so I am all caught up. I am hoping to pay the taxes before the first car payment is due. I don’t know if it is going to hurt us that much, but anything extra going out is never good when you are waiting to be paid.
When we were down in NJ, my dad gave us his old Nikon FE2. I have always loved Nikon’s and while this isn’t exactly the digital beast that I’d love, I think it can be a great start to learning all about manually photography. Plus it gives me a chance to learn to develop film, something that I have always wanted to learn to do, hope this gives me the inspiration to take more pictures and finally learn to develop film.
Hey Sean,
Yeh shopping in Australia is really expensive, but I haven’t really been anywhere else so I am not accustom to paying less!! It also depends on what you buy – designer items are more expensive here – like MAC makeup and designer label clothes. But other things can be just as cheap as anywhere else, like underwear and basic clothes.
oooo Nikon!! I love manual photography! I really want a SLR. I have a pretty good camera but nothing with changeable lenses!! I want to collect lenses!!
I love the manual cameras. I took a few classes on photography a while ago and they were great. I loved working in the dark room and learning about developing film. You’ll have to take some photos and show us!
That sucks that you have to pay into your taxes. I’ve never had to pay in. They always pay me. I just sent mine in yesterday and can’t wait for my money!
Hey Sean, yeah I just got a boyfriend in February. I met him on plentyoffish.com on February 8th, and than we had our first date on Valentines Night, of this year! Hey if you need any money let me know okay? I’ll be willing to help you and Kris out okay?
Film is fun for a while, but it really made me appreciate my digital camera.
A lot of people getting into manual photography love the Nikon cameras. I say that as a point and shooter :p
In reply to the comment you left on my blog:
I know that there are other freelance websites out there, but as freelancer.com is the one that I use I wanted to give people my experience with them. I know article writing is only a small part of what they do and other freelancing websites will specialise in article writing. I actually quite like the fact that I can flit from one type of freelancing to another.
