My first post using the Canon XS.

This week we welcome a Canon Digital SLR into the family!
I realize that I have an unnatural creative mind.
No, not an unnaturally creative mind, an unnatural one.
I tend to grab a creative idea, obsess over learning about it and trying my hand at it,....then find something else and therefore either forget about the prior idea or (even worse) forget how to do it. I can even see this by looking back at some of my older posts. The 3D animation for instance. I focused on it for a few days, learned alot of the shortcut keys and memorized what the important confusing buttons and menus did.
...then I focused on something else...
...and now I have forgotten everything that took me hours to get used to and learn....
Then we have the shirt idea, something that I would still very much like to do but haven't been able to focus on yet.
And the list goes on.
So what am I saying?
Out of all my creative ideas and attempts, one in particular has successfully stuck with me over the years.
Photography.
Emily and I are both very interested in pushing our photography skills further but haven't had the means to.
Until now!
My super awesome aunt has decided to give us both the gift of a Digital SLR!!
A Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS 1000D...to be exact.

This sexy devil will finally slap the face of our old (and falling apart) Canon point n' shoot!
I predict there is a creativity storm coming...
You've been warned!
