Just Call Me Wes

Remember the guy who videotaped a bag in American Beauty...

Ya - I feel like him today.

Why?

Well, after owning a sweet DSLR camera since Christmas and taking lessons, today I finally had a chance to bust that baby out and practice taking pictures. There's not much that I cared to photograph in my neighborhood.

So after walking around annoyed at the lack of photo-ops, I noticed a chip bag in the grass. Maybe it was the influence of Wes' character in American Beauty, but the bag called to me. Heck - at least I could practice Aperture.

So, the first picture I am officially sharing with the world is this shot of a chip bag:

I have a lot to learn, but with the upcoming adventures Joe and I are going on, there will be lots of chances to practice!

And I'll aim for some more exciting shots moving forward ;)
