I loved to take pictures as a pre-teen with my Kodak Brownie and later my Kodak Instamatic. Then, life took me down many roads that didn't include photograpy beyond occasional "snapshots" along the way. Now, almost 50 years later, here I am. I signed up for Tabblo in Decmber of 2006 but then got sidetracked and didn't follow up on my joining. I am truly a beginner at this but my interest in the photography that I see from others makes me want to see if I could learn how to build my own knowlege and skills in photography. Having my partner Brenda share the same enthusiasm helps too.I couldn't afford, or justify, a good DSLR camera right now but I did get a Kodak P850 w/zoom at a reasonable price just before they were discontinued. I think it will serve me well until I get more experience and knowledge about photography. I appreciate, in advance, any comments and constructive criticism of my entries so I can improve my efforts.
