Using the New Camera

I went out today to practice using my camera. Unfortunately the weather was overcast in a very flat way. I like bad weather days, I like overcast days. But today it was just...flat.

In any case, I was primarily getting used to the camera, settings, and how to use it.



Camera Shop at Namdaemun



Good Man

After I'd finally decided to purchase the camera and was allowed to use the lens, Good Man enjoyed his free can of coffee.



Michael

Michael was playing with my camera. "But how do you take self-portraits with this?" he said. Apparently like this.



Owl Amanda

The elevator jolted to a stop just as I was taking the photo. I took a sharper one but liked this one better.



Deliveries Korean Style

Not the shot I want, but I've wanted some sort of shot of the autobai delivery men here for a while. Love the sandals and helmet in the basket.



One Man Twice



Watermelon

I was walking past the 7-Eleven and the watermelon in the window caught my eye. Unfortunately, the clerks inside were glaring at me, so I couldn't quite compose the shot the way I wanted to. Instead I decided to crop it down to try and highlight how much green is in this photo.

Your going to have so much fun with that camera. I have the Nikon D50 and love it. Right now though I just can't justify upgrading...

Good choice on a camera! I'm using a Canon 400D that I picked up in Namdaemun 6 months ago. I still use my P&S but nothing beats the controls of an SLR!! :)

An American educator moves to Korea, presumably to teach English. Instead she discovers that learning Korean one taekwondo class at a time is a more captivating activity.
