And, there is something else that I am super excited about...
My new Nikon D810! I still can't believe how much money I had to pay for this, but so far I'd say it was worth it. I had to wait to see it for awhile now. We ordered it during my Thanksgiving break, and then I had to go back to school knowing that my camera would arrive at my house while I was supposed to be focusing on final exams. It was very difficult.
But now I'm here, and I am so thankful that it wasn't anything like the first camera I bought (the 7100). I think there was issues with that specific camera. So, I ended up having to return it. I'm glad though! Because now I have a better camera.
Anyway, I'm afraid I'm going to drive everyone crazy during break with my picture taking, but I'm beginning to feel the passion and the love of photography seeping back into me.
