I noticed much later, I needed to adjust the width in order to post these. A little about the name of my dog: I was going to name my dog Neville after Neville Longbottom in Harry Potter, but my mom couldn't really pronounce it. Then after watching Part 1 of the final series, the Deathly Hallows, I wished I named him Dobby. Then again, when I got him, I had wished I named him all sorts of names. Instead, Porkchop came from a cartoon I used to watch when I was younger called "Doug."
Anyways, my new toy came in the mail. The first lens I've bought for my camera. And thus, came Neville, whom I have decided to call my camera. We've had each other since around the beginning of summer. It was partly a gift from my mom and myself when I graduated college. Although he is quite clunky to tote around, I'm having fun with him. And now that I got this new lens, I'm going to have even more fun! Especially this weekend, where it's December Nights (formerly Christmas on the Prado, until the term Christmas became politically incorrect) at Balboa Park. I hope I'll even get to go. It's really fun, and I haven't been there since maybe middle school.. From what I remember is that it's mainly the museums in Balboa Park are going to be free. There's food and hot chocolate. And from what I remember, a beautiful sort of Christmas type of procession where everyone stopped just to watch.
My first picture using my new lens
Being excited, and taking pictures of aimless things
Having started the Christmas decorations, and unoriginally, learning to bokeh
