I am thrilled with the new Canon Powershot SX100 IS that Santa brought me for Christmas - you see - size does matter! After weighing the benefits of being able to put a digital camera in my pocket vs. a 10x optical zoom lens, the zoom won. Getting another camera with a 3x zoom would have been just another disappoiment. The SX100 IS is definately a spy camera! I will be going photo crazy over the next fews weeks I am sure!
I joined the photography club in college, and learnt how to take pictures and develop them myself. It's incredibly peaceful and healing being tucked away in a dark room alone with your art. One of my sisters friends threw me into turmoil at one point however, with the statement that we put too much faith in photos, and sometimes they can limit the extent of our memories to only the things we have photos of. Life cannot be summed it in a picture, she said.
