Wish I Had a Better Gear

Hobbyist often said – it’s not the indian that matters but the “pana.”  Meaning it is not the camera that matters  it’s you and your passion to take photos is what matters most.

Yesterday i saw a very breathtaking transformation of the sky and as always i love sky features so i shoot and shoot.  But at the back of my mind, i know that if i was using a better camera then i could have captured the beauty of the moment better.

See this for yourself -

Photobucket

This is really a beautiful site and everyone of us who saw this loved the view but it was only me who took photo. The others who have good gears were still on the way to our spot so they sort of missed a beautiful sky transformation.

I am not satisfied of the outcome of the photo.  I missed some detailed features of what i saw yesterday but as i mentioned in the previous post — this is better than nothing. right?

Oh well ive been using an N73 for these past months as my camera.  Macro wise it takes good photos but for panoramic purposes i am not satisfied with the result.  But still thanks to my sis for feeling nauseus if she uses this unit but now that she is over with her pregnancy i am scared that one day she will take this away from me.

We were away on a medical mission trip yesterday and check out some details with photos here.

    Arleen, you have the values of a good photographer. Worry not, you soon will be able to use your other camera.
    Nice capture.

    Know what? I felt that too when I was taking photos of my daughter during her cheer exhibition (you can visit my post). I just bought my DSLR cam but now I am salivating to have a more powerful lens so i can take a closer photo of her while on the mat. Well, still saving up for that!
    Nway, your shot is not that bad!

    it’s still nice, Mommy. I like the upward rays. Hay, I miss watching sunsets na.

    @ Kerslyn – why man sis, layo na ba ka sa sunset karon? Go to the seaside again to shoot them!

    i love the shot! i totally agree with you. minsan you really don’t need to have the most expensive and the latest equipment. with a little knowledge and proper timing, you can turn it into something great. :D

    sorry for the late reply, i just retrieved your comment from my spam folder. :D

    I think it’s a lovely shot. I also get mesmerized by the transformation of the sky.
