Nature Photography

Like most people, I enjoy looking at superbly taken photos.

Earlier today, I saw one which impressed me enough to share it with a few friends. Sensing my enthusiasm for such photos, one friend went on to suggest that I invest in a particular lens.

The problem is, although I take photos once in a while, I have minimal knowledge and no interest to learn more about photographic techniques or equipment.  So being told of terms such as “AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8” seriously means nothing to me.

However, when I think back to our visit to the Singapore Zoo last month, I remember wishing that I had a camera that could capture close-up shots of the lovely flamingos - which I think are the loveliest animals in this zoo.

I know that with the right camera, lens and know-how, I could easily fill up stacks of bluray CDs with pictures of nature - not to mention my kids in action.

I should learn more about photography.
