Back in college, whenever I go out with friends such as hiking or just hanging out at the Freedom Park, they would bring food and drinks, as for me I just bring my camera. When we were required in one major subject to make a compilation of plants - which includes pictures, I used it as an excuse to be able to buy an SLR.
When phones started to have built-in cameras, I saved up for a phone which is quite pricy because the camera is good. And even though it's really expensive, I hope to be able to buy a full-frame DSLR, someday.
I know I won't be able to do it professionally nor will I gain anything from it. Yes, I do take decent pictures but not the kind which would make people stare in awe. I just do it because it is fun.
Anyway, I really love taking pictures. Especially of landscapes and plants. When I take pictures of people it's usually candid ones.
I hope I took more pictures of people though. How I wish I took more pictures of our family - of my brother as he grew up, of Mama as she took care of us, and of Daddy while he was still with us. I had a camera with me most of the time but I didn't use it. It's too late, those moments have passed and there's no way of bringing them back.
