Day 1: Just me and the cam

This is me and my new camera

The next big step...

I've decided to go ahead with this new hobby of mine and learn the true ins and outs of digital photography. Sounds great, but you know the gear I have is for my film camera. Well that just changed. Last night i picked up my new digital-SLR camera that I had ordered on Sunday night. I now have an Olympus E-620 fitted with a 40-150mm lens (for now). I've got much to learn with this camera, but I feel like I have a good foundation with all that I've done with film.

To help keep me motivated and focused on learning my new camera, I signed up for the 365 project. The 365 project is one in which you must take and post one picture everyday for one year. I think I'm up for the challenge =p

I will try to post each picture here with an explanation of the shot. I'm hoping to improve over time and watch as I become a better photographer. The first ones are going to be super basic... from the ideas of the first couple of shots I've been thinking about taking; one of me, my camera, my film camera, something I made, work, my girlfriend... but I hope, down the road, to compose some really cool pics.

I look forward to doing this and I hope all goes well.
