(Not a Paid Post!) Today I bought myself a new camera. I didn’t need a new camera, I just wanted one. Specifically, I wanted a camera I could slip in my pocket and just take with me everywhere. I read a bunch of reviews and then just ignored them. I don’t usually indulge myself this way, but I wanted a “pocket camera” and I wanted it right now! So I went to Staples and bought a Kodak Easy Share camera because it was the cheapest small camera they had. Then I went for a walk and snapped a few pictures like the one above. I am very happy with it so far. It isn’t much bigger than my cell phone and it takes pretty decent pictures. Plus it connects to my computer and charges itself with the USB port. My old camera didn’t. The camera has a bunch of settings that I haven’t a clue how to use. Later I’ll read the manual and try to figure it all out. But for now I have everything set on auto and it seems to be working pretty well.
The downside to buying the camera is I used up all my “pocket cash”. I guess I’ll just have to give up my skinny latte’s for awhile!
Some of the things I’ve bought in this fashion have given me alot of pleasure. Have a good time with it.
I like the photo. Let’s see more now that you have the tools.

in my opinion a camera isn’t as much a splurge as a necessity… how else will you remember the past? I have a Kodak, it’s not really a pocket type, but it takes really good pics. If I can’t have the $700 Canon I want, it’s not too bad! You can see some of what comes from it at my photo blog. (http://photosforthefunofit.blogspot.com)
BTW… looks like you have a very pretty place to walk!
