Missing the camera

Sometimes I just want -no - need to take a picture of something. Like the yogurt with strawberry sauce I had this morning. Man, that looked delicious. Or the cafe latte I made from scratch. Memories, yeah? But no, the camera won't effin turn on no matter how hard I pound it on the table. I mean the couch. I mean my soft palms. Uh hey babe.
Speaking of, a few weeks ago I went to see the works of Shoji Ueda at the Tokyo Met. Museum of Photography. His photos are simple yet fantastic and a lot of times funny. Much chuckling going around. I loved the pictures of his family and it's so romantic that his most popular photo is of his wife sitting in the dunes
. I think everyone should have that at least once in the prime of their youth and beauty.
Time won't wait. So I'm now thinking this or this?

Nature has some of the most stunning backdrops. Don't care much for traveling on foot through the dunes but they are nice to visit and soak in on occasion.
I'm saving up for a nice Nikon. Don't know if I'll ever have enough for it. Everything likes to break down right before I get the money. Of course I know nothing of photography beyond pushing the button. But it looks so fun.
Me too! That's why I'm a big fan of point and shoots. Cheap (well, relatively) and easy. Can't be bothered with slr's. Way too complicated for me.
