Picture of the week - Thailand

I have always had a love for capturing beautiful pictures.  I used to work really hard at the technical aspects --- fully equipped darkroom included. But lately it is more of a shoot and click experience.  Whatever type of photographer you are there is such joy in capturing an image that tells a story.  This is a photo taken in Thailand of a group of girls from a local orphanage. We had spent the morning in a village church with them and did not realize until after that fact that they were walking home because their transportation had been diverted to give us a ride.  Had I known, it would have been a joy to saunter down this steep dirt road with them, surrounded by the laughter that comes from knowing they had found a safe and loving refuge in a harsh world.

As I anticipate my next journey I am thinking it is time to return to my technical photographic roots.  Having researched cameras I have seen great reviews of the Nikon 3200   No, it is not a professional camera but it has many features you would find in a high end Nikon at a surprisingly affordable price.  I will keep you updated if I take the plunge and highlight some of the pictures for you here.  Check it out and let me know what you think. Nikon 3200.
