Hey all, I just signed up to ask a couple questions even though I have been lurking for a while......I live in the Houston area (actually south west of the city border in a Missouri City) but was born and raised in NY state (part of the family in the upstate area and part in the city), I moved to FL and lived in on the Fort Myers side of the Sanibel Bay and spent a few years in Tampa (blah!!!!!).
Anyway, I like reading, writing, playing guitar, and romantic walks on the bea............. Oh wait, wrong window
My first decent camera was a Pentax ZX-7 that I bought for when my Wife and I went on our honeymoon..... Used it on auto settings but got great pictures and I knew there was something to this newfangled film craze......before this point it was just point n shoot, but a few years after the ZX-7 I decided to go back to basics with K1000, eventually got a digital point and shoot and then decided I needs an DSLR and decided on a Pentax *IST (and I like the fact that people do not know what to call it) I went with this because it had most of the basics and not a bunch of stuff I would not use, I wanted something that would force me to work on the basics and I did not (and still do not) want to have digital take over my photo-life.
Sorry on the length, I am feeling good and am rambling on.........and yes!!!! this is the crazy why I type with tons of ........... and (stuff like this in brackets) because I think my brains broken........or at least not wired proper
