Old hobby, revisited


My father gave me a SLR camera in 1987, it was an old second-hand Olympus. I can't even remember the model anymore. It gave me a lot of happiness, even with the limitations it had - it wasn't a high-end model, and I could not afford to buy all the extra gadgets, lens included - until I lost it two years later when my apartment in Chicago got broken into. I was sad, especially when I couldn't afford to replace it. So now, 22 years later, I bought myself a DSLR. Again a basic model - the Canon 1000D, but it has given me a lot of happiness again. This time around I managed to buy a couple of extra lens. So here are some of my handiwork.
