2/16/09 - Post Winter Wings Festival

What a great weekend! I'm a bit tired but we had great time. Everything came together and we helped a lot of photographers better learn photography and their cameras.

Thursday afternoon the Canon people arrived and got checked in to their rooms then they came down to visit the store. I had arranged for Jerry Ingram to give the group a tour of the Lower Klamath Refuge Friday morning so I informed them of their schedule. They were excited at the opportunity.

This year in Photography

January has come and gone. It seems like time just keeps going faster. And technology in digital photography is no different. It used to be that you purchase a camera and it was many years before you out grew it or needed another camera. Not so with digital cameras. I guess we can liken them to the computer. When you first get a new digital camera you're amazed at the quality and speed. After a couple years of use they seem slow and everyone around you seems to have better one.

Last year in Photography

It's hard to believe that it's 2009. I know that I've been a little slow to get this blog thing going, but for the new year, I will try to be more diligent.
