29.12.2004 All done for another year.
Phew… thank god that Christmas crap is over and done with for another year. Not that it's been a particularly bad Christmas, but I'm still glad to see the back of it. In fact… I've done quite well out of Christmas this year. The missus treated me to a nice new digital camera for which I'm eternally grateful. It's taken her close to four years but it seems that she's finally starting to take note when I drop hints about stuff that I want.
I feel quite guilty really because she spent considerably more on me that I did on her. I guess I'm actually quite lucky to have such a generous and thoughtful girlfriend. After all… she managed to give me brilliant presents for Xmas and for my birthday as well!
The two of us have been through some pretty rough patches over the years and sometimes it's been tough keeping things together but in retrospect I'm really glad that we have. As soppy as it sounds I really don't know how I ever coped without her in my life. I'm a lucky, lucky guy.
Anyway's… enough of all that soppy stuff… onto the hardware! The missus treated me to a Sony Cybershot DSC-F828 which isn't quite a digital SLR but not a typical consumer camera either. It's what the magazines are referring to as a “prosumer” camera. It's got a shit load of different options n stuff on it and they're proving to be quite a handful to get my head round but I'm getting there slowly but surely.
I'm thinking about going on a weekend intensive photography course or something to learn some of the basics about composition and the different settings on the camera. Plus it should give me a chance to get some brilliant landscape shots as well.
