She couldn't stop smiling the whole time she was in the pool. She refused to get out of the water, too, even when her lips turned blue.

For a long time, I was an admirer. I loved photographs -- all kinds -- nature shots, landscapes, still lifes, portraits, simple shots snapped of a street sign. But I never thought I could take cool photos. I was lucky if a photo wasn't blurry or didn't have my thumb in the frame and the subject was somewhat in the center. But sometime last year, armed with a Nikon D80, I thought I'd give it a try anyways. I promptly fell in love. And now I'm more than an admirer: I'm a doer. My photos are still sometimes blurry, and yes, I have more than one (or ten) photos where the edge of my thumb made it into the picture, but I'm slowly learning and growing and trying more. It's so exciting, trying to make the simple and the ordinary look beautiful, unique, and artistic. Even something as regular as, well, a picnic basket.
