"Taking a picture is like playing music. The camera is the instrument, the subject, the score. The photographer is the musician, and the picture the song. Play On!"

I'm new to photography. Oh sure, I've taken the obligatory birthday, Christmas, and other celebratory pictures, but am new to the more creative aspect of it. I still lack in the skill, (I get mixed up as to what f/stop to use with what aperture),but I'm still at the learning curve stage. I also suck large at Photoshop. Both are challenges to me, but HEY!! I'm up to it. I'm an artist by nature. We grew up with a mother who nutured our creative side and encouraged us to look at the world as a magical place, one that would allow our imaginations to soar and recreate what we saw, no matter the medium used -photography is a natural extension of this. Although I didn't discover it until after being diagnosed with osteoporosis (I had had to find another activity to replace an active lifestyle), I am thoroughly enjoying the creative outlet, the challenges, and the rewards.
