Finally....

I FINALLY did it.  I braved 34th street to go to B&H yesterday (love B&H, hate 34th Street) and bought myself a DSLR camera.  I didn't want to spend a ton of money on my first DSLR since I'm pretty much a beginner so after some research I decided on a refurbished Canon EOS Rebel T3 with a basic 18-35mm lens.  I am in love.  Why oh why did I wait 6 years to do this?!  I think I was afraid it was too big and bulky to carry around and I wondered if I would really use it.   But the image quality is so fantastic just on auto mode, and I can't wait to delve into manual mode.  And the camera is really not that heavy (at least not with the lens I have).  Here are a couple pictures I took yesterday afternoon with my new DSLR... Um, the quality is soooo much better than my Canon PowerShot A710 or my iPhone Camera.
