Thhe $50 body cap

Another Photo related link. Truly this does seem as if it's something easily done at home, and reminds me of being a kid and building my own pinhole camera with cardboard, silver tape, and a 126 film cartridge from an article in the kids magazine World. Not worth the $50, but it seems easily done at home!

The Bokeh

Now I was well aware of this technique, although I never hear of the term bokeh before, I most likely first encountered it with those Cokin filter kits from the middle age of the chemical SLR era. This seems like a nice inexpensive fun way to spice up your dSLR photos. Bonus, the camera used is the same body I have. Check it out, $25 is not that bad a price, and I like that you can get creative and make your own cutouts if you have the talent and/or motivation.

Hmm

So, I have decided to blog. I have given the idea some thought for awhile, but what really tipped me over the edge was when my pal Wordsy decided to set his own up. So here I go and wish me luck!!
