Meet my Girls [first post since I was MIA]

When I was a child, creativity was synonymous to my name in Marie Earnestine School. Although I am not aptly endowed with artisan skills, I'd like to think that I am artistic. Although, today I would have to admit that I am slowly loosing the child in me, I won't loose it without putting up a fight. After countless nights of working and just plainly getting sucked up in the rat race - I have decided to take a stand and finally reward myself by buying my very own DSLR camera - impulsively.

Meet my Lily, an Olympus E-420. I would like to believe that Lily was meant to be mine - the last stock before the unbelievable promo ended.


For the price and it's capabilities - I would have to say that it was a steal, a definite must-have. Whilst this is an entry level camera, among its features that I love are: the anti-shock, live view, AF points of up to 11, good photo quality, it's currently the smallest DSLR camera, impressive continuous shooting mode, and it really does offer you value for your money.

Before I finally caved and decided to buy Lily, I first bought Holga, my lomo camera. I wanted to try film first to test my love for the craft, and boy does it test your love. From my first film, only 6 were not underexposed and from that, only 4 looked okay. For the second roll of film, let's just say I forgot to take my lens cap off and have ultimately missed out of a potentially lomo masterpiece.


Anyway, its getting quite late. I will definitely post pictures soon.
