A stumble... and a restart

I admit that lately I haven't had much practice in taking pictures.  Personally, the last good pictures I took were when I was still with Pixela.  And even before that, I've always been proud of my skills and knowledge in using an SLR on manual settings. Either with natural light or with flash, modesty aside, I know I was good.  I was good because I took the time to study my SLR and photography in general.  I took the time to compose pictures.
 
Right now I am "recalibrating" and would be studying this camera more and studying photography techniques which are significant or specific to the camera.  I am not happy with the pictures I've taken so far.  It would take me some more time to get used to this.  Maybe another 100 pictures, and with constant practice.  I have to be patient and learn to compose pictures again.
 
The learning continues then.

Some days I just want the time to pass me by.

Changes: from words to graphics

I am planning to steer this page from one end of the spectrum to another:  from words to pictures.  Hopefully, I would be successful enough to show something for it.
 
Next!!!
