35mm's Worth of Love

I bought a 35mm camera from Walgreens today. It was a really good deal, too. It came loaded with a roll of color film with 24 exposures (400 speed). And, if I get it developed at Walgreens, I won't have to pay for film ever again since the camera comes with a lifetime worth of refills!

It's been ages since I've handled a 35mm camera. The last time I used one was during my trip to Europe seventeen years ago. I took pictures casually then, for fun, and didn't care at all about good composition. Sad to say, but after seeing the pictures I took today, I don't think I've improved much. My new camera from Walgreens has revealed a lot of my shortcomings and surely, I have plenty of room for improvement. Of the 24 shots, only 4 turned out okay. But, that's alright I guess since I'm still learning. I really want to become a great photographer one day. So I registered for an intro to photography course at City College next semester and I'm feeling optimistic and excited.
