Flickring Away Part Deux

reading spot,

Since my other Flickr post was done using the Blogger template, I thought I would try to blog my own photo using the flickr "blog this photo" feature. This picture is of my patio reading spot, where I spend a good portion of my time off. If you want to see the rest of my photographic experiment, click on the picture to get to my photostream on Flickr.

Flickring Away Part One

So I finally did it. I took some pictures with a digital camera, set up a flickr account, and uploaded them. With a little help.

You see, I almost never use a camera, so other than this assignment, I have had no use for a flickr account of my own - although I have spent a fair amount of time on the site observing the pictures of others. It isn't that I am uninterested in having various events, people, and places in my life preserved in photographic form. It's just...well...here:

Pretty isn't it? My husband took that. If you're interested, you can see more of his fabulous photography at http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshtrudell/. With a photographer like that in the house, I've never felt the need to play around with a camera much. Always preferred being in front of the camera to behind it anyway.

Nonetheless, I took the camera out and played around with it some. Since I used my husband's fancy Sony DSLR-A350, the results are pretty much proof that it is the photographer, not the camera, that makes the picture.
