Hi Michael
Excellent post on photography and I totally agree with you about the value of lens.
Success and good luck.

Michael, I have a fairly good eye but I still get so confused on the different settings. Your post helped quite a bit. You explained everything in reasonable terms. I've been wanting to take a photography class that would probably help me the most.
I saw a great shot today but my daughter had took off to the Brazos for a photography shoot with ALL my lenses.
Michael, I never thought of the pawn shop avenue. Do you take your camera with you?
Good you put that great brilliant photo at the bottom of your post, it inspired me to read the post twice!
Hi Michael, I upgraded my Canon P&S to a Nikon D80. I was concerned about the interior shots we all see in the MLS. Recently I added a Sigma 10-20mm wide angle and a speedlite . What an amazing difference . People actually comment on how well the pics turned out.
Michael...
Another thing about flowers ... if you are using long shutter times you need to make sure that there is NO wind!
Great shot BTW!
Michael - thanks great pointers. I am on my way to learning and testing what different things shutter speed, aperature etc. can do :) I have always heard that the lens is what makes it. ~Rita
A tripod can help tremendously, too. And if one just got a digital SLR camera but has been gone from serious photography for a couple of decades, practice, practice, practice! LOL
Michael, Your dedication shows in all the great pictures you post on your blogs. This was a great primer on photography, thanks.
I followed your previous post and ended up here Michael.
What a beautiful cornflower, the species I planted are more of a lighter shade. Very nice indeed your photograph!
How funny - digital film is cheap! These are good tips Michael - thank you.
