Good evening, Friends.
Camera's, Camera's, Camera's...
This baby here is a beginner DSLR camera that is no longer made by Nikon. It's a D3300. My friend, Jessica, offered it to me when she learned I wanted to get back into my photography. I absolutely love it. It's perfect for learning how to shoot in manual mode.
Sure, the iPhone is great for many things, and it takes beautiful pictures. I want to start selling my photos or framing them for friends as gifts. A camera like this is needed for that. I'm excited to get started!

Here is one of the first pictures I took with the camera. Not bad...it's on auto, though. I will get away from that very soon.
There is a lot of exploring and hiking in this vast area of Southern Utah and Northern Arizona. I couldn't capture what AZ and UT have to offer in a lifetime. The challenge is to take photos that no other has taken, to have an eye that no one else has, to put me in positions that others will never have thought of (get your mind out of the gutter - it's been forever 👀😂), and capture shots that will captivate people.
It's time to get dirty, cold, hot, uncomfortable, daring, active, adventurous, curious, snap-happy, and whatever else it takes to get that shot!
Stay tuned...and have a wonderful evening.
