I had my first introduction to a DSLR which I had borrowed in December 2019, a Canon EOS650D with just the 55-250mm lens. I have enjoyed using the combination but I also experienced the challenges of it. I wished there could have been a wider lens for the landscape pictures. In January, because I was ready to start this amazing journey, I laybyed my own camera, I upgraded to a Canon EOS800D and I only received it last week.
What a wait it has been but I won’t lie, much of my curiosity was about the 18-55mm lens. I just couldn’t wait to try it, so I tried it this past Sunday and it felt strange. Also that it was getting darker but I just had to try, though my settings were all over the place. My son kept pointing to the moon and the two stars that accompanied it and I stopped to take the following pictures. Not my best work but I am sure it will get better with time.




But now that me and my new camera plus the new lens have finally met, the journey promises to continue being more fun.
