Hi there
Mids are over and i am feeling relaxed. Thought to share an image that i took when i went on my 1st shoot out when i got hands on my 1st camera in late 2004. Here it is



I also want to share an interesting story about how i got my 1st camera:huh

I completed my intermediate in computer sciences in 2004. This was the time when i was ready to enter Pakistan's finest art college (NCA) it is in other city about 5 hours drive from where i live. When i put my decision infront of Mom and Dad long conflict started. Dad was not comfortable about scope of arts(:rolleyes) Mom was not in mood of sending me away from her:lust.Conflict continued for few days until they asked me to leave the Art college thing and get a camera ! i openly accepted the deal and in few days dad purchased me "DSC W1 Sony"

Then i started to discover what subject will give me most free time so i can spend more time with camera. Math no , computer sciences No there is math in it too. Some stupid gave me idea of Accounting and more stupid i was and got admission in Commerce:rolleyes. It was totally opposite of what i wanted to study.

Was remembering and laughing at past lol

Howdy Awais,

I too have really enjoyed seeing things through your eyes and have enjoyed seeing you grow and mature as a photographer. The World is a wonderful place, and having someone like yourself show the rest of Us your part of the World is a true treat, and always so interesting.

So glad your Studies are over for a while, relax and enjoy yourself.

Kindest Regards,

Craig
