Beverly,

I hear you. I remember when I bought my first digital. I went crazy taking photos. Now, I think my library is approaching 75,000

As far as I remember I always liked photography. My first contact with the camera was when I was a little kid…. all I remember was that I opened my dad’s camera while the film was still inside. Let’s just say it wasn’t a happy experience … It took about 13 years, and finally I was able to buy my own Minolta X-370 SLR, with a 28mm f2.8 lens. I still have it. Took tons of photos with it, but the most memorable one was while I was traveling in Poland. It was a photo of the statue of Neptune in Gdansk. It was at night, right after a rain storm. I balanced the camera on a garbage can, and took a 2 sec exposure. 1 exposure. It came out perfect. The problem is that I might have lost it over the years. It’s been over 20 years ago… everything else is history.

I can’t remember a photo of mine – but I do know that the moment I picked up an Imogen Cunningham book I was hooked and just wanted to create. They way she saw things made me a different photographer.

Great post – fun to think about!
