I has a camera, by the way.
Still not a digital one that's really good for photography, but... actually, two cameras, nonetheless. My uncle gave me an older digital one a few days ago, which is cool. And months ago... I should have talked about it then, but i forgot about blogging for a long time... a friend of my grandpa's gave me this awesome, 40-year-old Praktica that cost a few hundred dollars in 1968. (Which is to say, it's a pretty great camera.) Obviously it uses film, so it'll be a lot of trouble to get pictures that i take with it online or anything, but still. He also gave me a bunch of accessories, including several lenses. It's awesome. You have to buy film, but so far people have given me that, and i have six rolls right now. So, yeah. Look forward to me having fun with it.

David duChemin, the Ted Dekker of photography?
So, i'd rather just let this guy and his book(s) speak for themselves than explain. I checked out "Within the Frame: The Journey of Photographic Vision" from the library... and it's the best photography book i've ever seen; the one i've been looking for for years and never known it, etc... If you read it and understand, well, then you'll understand.
Here's his site.
Speaking of photography and stuff... I like it. I'm thinking about making a photography blog, either out of this one or a separate blog. But i can't right now... because my camera is broken. I don't think it'll get fixed, but i should be getting a new one around my birthday in January. So, then if not before, someone (Jimmy) should remind me of this.
