    My Camera Hates Me.

    April 19, 2011 |

    (this was supposed to be a post on my organized closet, but in reviewing the pictures, I needed to vent on my camera or I might blow a gasket…)

    Granted, it was evening, rainy outside, the light wasn’t the best. But WHEW! I feel like my camera is making a habit out of taking awful pictures.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    I only shoot on manual, the flash is off almost permanently, my pictures are mostly taken next to windows or outside or. I’ve played around with white balance, iso, and all that fun stuff. I’ve read countless tutorials on making your point and shoot work.

    But I feel like I’ve gotten to the point where I am sick and tired of my camera and it’s starting to show. I don’t want to take pictures period because they end up like this.

    I’m missing out on memories, like Lily helping me out with dinner.

    I’ve lost my enjoyment for DIY posts, because it takes me 20 million shots to get a good one. Or to even get a not so good one. I spend more time taking pictures than crafting, lol.

    If I want to be able to compare to other bloggers, I can’t go on having blurry or over edited pictures, now can I?

    I need to take the plunge. And soon.

     

    How were you able to afford investing in a camera?

    Have any recommendations?

    thanks for reading our feed, please stop by the house for a visit sometime soon. 🙂
