Busy Being Aggravated!

I am ready for the weather to warm up and plants to grow their leaves. I’m tired of taking photos of the cold, “dead” plants. These images are often powerful but I’m so bored with it! I love bright colors. I think I’m also just tired of the weather; I'm ready for spring! I want to get down to the St. Louis Zoo for some cool photos! I'm also thinking taking a Saturday and doing my own Lincoln tour. I’m really looking forward to my summer camping trip in the Smoky Mountains . I need to make sure I get a better tripod by then. I have a basic tripod now, but depending on which lens I am using, the tripod has been known to fall over. It also doesn’t have any height. I know I should invest in something that will be usable for years to come but I’m a poor college student! My camera is only a year and a half old but it’s probably outdated… Why does technology have to change so quickly?! It’s so aggravating but so cool, all at the same time! I also need to find some stuff to create a background. Thick, white sheets always work but I want to come up with something really unique but I don’t think I Have time for that right now. But my shopping list includes a tripod and some new sheets! Here I go!
