Perfect shots, true colors, couldn't ask for more. Exposures were taken in Program Mode, recorded at 1/2 and 1 second for the first four images, and 1/25 second for the sky shot. in the community park just across from where I lived.

Not a planned night shot, but rather an impromptu "Program Mode" handheld twilight session. I am still all excited about having the vintage digital Canon EOS 300D, a 6.3-megapixel entry-level DSLR camera. When launched in 2002, the EOS 300D camera was the first DSLR to hit the market with a price tag of below US $1000.

My take? Find an alternative to the ever-spiraling cost of continuing the hobby, as I have been doing in the past, in film photography. Am I getting what I am looking for? I am warming up to it, and it looks like it's going to be a big Yes. I will have to forgo my love for film, though, and work on other challenges instead.
