My First Camera

My first camera was a Kodak disposable camera that only had 27 shots. There were no display screens that lets you see what your pictures look like, which can prove to be a challenge if you are unsure of the camera settings, such as ISO, Aperture, Shutter Speed. This was a perfect practice device for beginning photographers. It was affordable and it really makes you think carefully about your shots because you only have 27, so you better make it count. As much as I wanted to purchase a professional camera, I had to work with what I have and what I could afford. First shots were not so great, but as time progressed my shots were getting better and creative. Looking back now through all of my photos, I can see the evolution of where I started to the here and now. I can't recall how many camera's I have gone through, but I do recall through my photos of the many adventures from beginning just why photos are so important for both memories and storytelling no matter how they are captured.
