Welcome to my shiny new blog. I have been eager to write a blog for a while, but wasn’t sure what to write about. At the same time I’ve been learning photography, so why not document my journey.
I have been interested in photography for many years, but limited myself to taking pictures with my phone as I didn’t want to spend money on a fancy camera.These were mostly nature photos, specifically plant life like flowers and mushrooms. Around a year ago I got my first DSLR, a Canon 600D, I opted for a Canon 50mm F1.8 lens rather than the stock lens. This was a great decision as the 50mm gives me great photos and is really beginner friendly.
More recently I have been expanding my photography interests beyond nature, to landscape, portrait and architecture. Along with taking pictures or just anything I find interesting.

The purpose for this blog is to document everything I learn about photography and talk about photography outings and how I took and edited the photos from these outings. I am also considering having a segment called “Cameras and Coffee” each week. This is where I would visit a different local coffee shop each week and review them, included in the review will be some super sweet photos I’ve taken.
