Finding a new hobby

Thu, 21 Feb ‘08
I haven't really thought much about photography as an hobby before. I've used the built in 5MP camera in my Nokia N95 mobile phone, I thought it was alright.
Santa was nice to me in 2007. Last christmas I got a Canon EOS 400d, a prosumer (I hate that word) model DSLR. And I can't tell you what a great difference this has made. Now, of course I knew this would be a huge boost in image size and quality, but what I couldn't predict was this whole new world of possibilities and creativity that I found in using it! I've been slightly obsessed with always bringing the camera with me and my Amazon wish list is growing long with camera equipment and new lenses. I love it!
Finding a new hobby is great fun and people should do it more often. I know it's not easy to just go out there and get one. I was lucky, mine came to me. But this has made me start thinking about the refreshing and wonderful feeling it brings when you find a new hobby. You dream about it, you bore you're co-workers under you lunch break with it, you spend all your money and time on it. I guess it's bit like falling in love. So go find a new hobby now! I recommend it!
