Day 3 - A favourite photo that you have taken yourself and explain why



This is a photo that I took when I was about 17 or 18 years old. I was on a family trip in the summer of 2003 in Kelowna, BC. This was during a time when I did not even have a regular point-and-shoot digital camera, so I bought myself 2 disposable cameras for the trip to take some memories along the way.

I took this on the very last day of our stay in Kelowna at the nearby dock by our cabins. The scenery was just absolutely beautiful and peaceful and I just had to take a picture. What I didn't know was how beautiful the picture would turn out by just a simple disposable camera. Ever since I got this picture developed, I fell in love with it and right away, I framed it and it hangs on my wall in my room.

This picture is what started it all; my love for photography and capturing the beauty of the world around me with a simple action of a finger. When my boyfriend and I started to get ourselves into the world of photography, I looked at this specific photo in my room and told myself, "wow ... look at the potential I could have for taking the most beautiful moments of my life". It was this very photo that made me realize how precious photography was and it was this very photo that started my love for taking photos. It didn't even matter to me if it was a point-and-shoot
camera or a crazy DSLR or even a phone camera ... just taking a photo of a specific moment that would last forever in my mind (or on my wall) is just an incredible thing to me.

That's why I LOVE this photo and is one of my absolute favourites (if not, my ultimate favourite). Even though this wasn't taken by my Nikon DSLR, it still came out beautiful and it proves that it's not the camera that you use but the person who takes the picture.

I really do miss my D70 though ...
