Happy and healthy 2011, everyone. I hope this year is full of wonderful things for us all.

I am soon to be the proud owner of a Canon T1i. Oh, and eagerly anticipating a vacation in India–and why, yes, the dSLR is coming with me. I can’t wait to go and see what there is to see. Here’s hoping this trip will be the first of many to such a wonderful country.

(The above photo? Not from a fancy camera in the slightest. Rather, from my cell phone. Amazing what you can do with the tools all around you.)

I have this dilemma — I really, really want a DSLR but it has been over 8 years since I’ve used a SLR at all, and I am not really sure which DSLR I’d want to get in the first place. Thankfully I have generous friends who let me test-drive theirs–here’s me trying out the Canon Rebel XT with a 85mm lens (portrait lens).
