Trying out the new camera gear

Written by Lynn Sessions on January 31st, 2008

I received my new Olympus E-510 digital SLR on Wednesday evening so Thursday morning I went AWOL from my job and spent the morning in Provo Canyon testing its capabilities. So far, I love it!

 

 What do you think?

  "As you journey through life, choose your destination well, but do not hurry there. You will arrive soon enough. Wander the back roads and forgotten paths, keeping your destination in your heart. Seek out new voices, strange sights, and ideas foreign to your own. Such things are riches for the soul. And if upon arrival, you find that your destination is not exactly as you had dreamed, do not be disappointed. Think of all you would have missed but for the journey there, and know that the true worth of your travels lies not in where you come to be at journey’s end, but in who you come to be along the way."
