Short Intro Bios

If you had to write an introductory bio about yourself, what would it say?

Mine would be:

A firm believer of simple pleasures and comfort food, Grace enjoys the exhilarating feeling of sunshine on a winter day and taking long walks in the outdoors. She aspires to become a world-class photographer and traveler. Currently she is pursuing a double degree in Communications and Studio Art at Santa Clara University. She hopes to meet lots of unique people and explore different cultures in the world on her photographic trips. Besides photography, she is fascinated with cats, reading, writing, singing, and exploring.

@DkWhut:

i use a canon rebel t2i. it's more about the lens, rather than the camera body, but i'd like to upgrade soon (not sure to what tho). the lens i have are the portrait (50mm, 1.4), the one it came with (18-55mm), telephoto (goes up to 250mm), a wide lens (forgot measurements), and macro lens somewhere...(forgot measurements as well)

it's not about the camera as much as it is about the photographer i suggest just start out playing around with the camera equipment you have already, just as practice, to get used to the feel of your camera

@remembrent:
It has always been on the back of my mind. Iv bought a few cameras (nothing too fancy) in the last 2 years or so and just sitting in my closet untouched. I really don't know how to pick out a modern camera with the newest widgets and what not for a decent price. Or how to actually make it a hobby to be honest, any insight would be deeply appreciated!
What kind of Camera/Cameras have you used?

@DkWhut:
you should totally take up photography! i'd highly recommend it (you may regret that you didn't later, and you don't want more regrets running through your head now do you?)

Since Basil doesn't have such a feature, you're only using hashtags because you think they're "trendy" or cool.

A very independent individual with a huge heart who you can rely on in the times of hardship and need. He likes to kick it old school and enjoys listening to 70-90's rock. (with an exception of Jonny Cash and Lana Del Rey) Doesn't quite know what he wants to do for his future career, wishes he could do something to loves and not something he wouldn't he able to support him and his family with. Enjoys painting, jogging, drawing, and meeting new people. Open minded but will stand up for what he believes. Enjoys food, and long walk on the beach. Always had a part of him want to take on a hobby of photography. Loves to travel, explore and learn new things. He was a huge heart and puts everyone else in front of him, he also loves to help people and make them feel wanted and important. Thankful for cats and Netflix on those long days. Living life with a lot of regrets that go through his mind daily, but no one is perfect right?
