Writer’s Workshop: Just Go For It-A Picture Pefect Dream
I have been having a dream. Not so much like when I dreamed a dream nor my long term dream of being debt free and getting my dream car. A smaller but more attainable dream. Something which I can have in my arms. A physical entity to add to my collection of fancy toys. A tool which I can use to document the growth and milestone of the kids. Something which allows me to capture all the happy and sad moments and build up long lasting memories for the kids.
It would be an item which I need to do extensive research on as it would be a long term investment. There should be room for potential upgrades and keeping up with the latest in technology. Even though I do have a similar item in my possession it doesn’t deliver the quality and speed which I require. R was not that approving of this big ticket purchase but it didn’t bother me as it was going to be my purchase. Something which would be fully funded by my online blogging efforts.
I set it as a goal since the start of the year and was happy that it has taken me half the time I estimated to reach this goal. The dream has come true and this little baby has been added into the family.
Welcome my latest addition- Canon 650D
I can already seen an improvement in the shots I take ( see the collage above)
What dream do you have?
Has it come true for you yet?

That’s a beautiful camera..It’s also my dream to get one, but I should be happy with what I already have 🙂

Congrats! Wish I am knowlegable as you in photography

Congratulations! I’m eyeing that camera for my next birthday, but I might settle for a 550d instead. I’m working my way to a Samsung S3, too. Haha! 🙂

@Rebel Sweetheart,
Those are good cameras too.. for me my next aim is getting a better zoom lens and a marco for this camera.

@Willyn,
Hope that your dream comes true soon.
July 26, 2012 @ 5:57 pm
I’m impressed you bought that with blog money! Good for you!!
July 26, 2012 @ 6:55 pm
Awesome gift, and I can see a difference in the picture, she is so cute!
July 26, 2012 @ 7:49 pm
Congrats! I wish I had a camera like that. Now you just have to create more picture perfect memories

VERY nice addition! I need to consider upgrading myself… 🙂

My biggest dream is to get into larger home. This is all I can think of at the moment. We have long outgrown this place, as you can imagine with 33 years of marriage/possessions. It would be nice to have space for our children & future grandkids to gather in comfort. We paid off the mortgage to our current quaint home, so I’m digging around in hopes of finding our dream house soon! That being said, then no my dream has yet to come true.

@Cathy,
Hope that you will be able to get your dream house soon. I heard that prices of houses in USA are not as expensive as it was before so there maybe some good offers around.
July 26, 2012 @ 10:06 pm
oohh, nice! I love the camera! I’m still w/a point and shoot and hubby says it’s long overdue for us to upgrade. I think he’s right but they cost so much money! I bet they’re fun to experiment with though!! Have fun. 🙂

That’s a beautiful Cannon! Thanks for sharing the pics of the little cutie-pie. Coming by to visit from Katherine’s hop!
Cheers,

I always have dreams, what is life without the dreams? Most of my dreams came true, the ones that haven’t, wasn’t meant for me to have. Smiles.

What an adorable daughter you have! Your new baby is a nice one too. I have a Nikon D60 right now which by the way I bought there in SG. But I’m now on the prowl of a camera that has fast speed since I want to take picture of my children durin their events and competitions in Dancesport. 🙂

@Mom Michelle,
This Canon has a really fast shutterspeed and should be able to capture your kids in motion. That is one of the consideration when I was looking for a camera. Maybe you can consider it. 🙂
July 27, 2012 @ 1:38 am
Congrats and Enjoy ! 🙂 And what a little cutie the model is! 🙂

hooray for you!!! I’m still dreaming that my new Nikon D800 will arrive soon… heehee.

Drooling! I love “borrowing” my dad’s dslr when he visits. The difference in photo quality is amazing!
July 28, 2012 @ 3:35 am
Ooh yes that is a very nice tool! Glad you have realized it.
1. I have many dreams. One hasn’t yet happened. Right now, I want to have another baby. It’s closer. Others I do not know when they will be realized.
2. It has not yet come true. I hope soon.
Have a lovely weekend!

I dream of being debt free but like you I would love to add a new lens to my camera! I need to play with it more as our youngest son is a runner and heading off to college on a scholarship! I love capturing him running b y me!
I really enjoyed visiting you here today!
Have a great weekend!
