When I first joined this site it was just to store my pictures and to make scrapbook pages of my family for myself because family pictures are important to me. Those memories only happen once especially when someone you love gets sick and those memories are all you have later. I never had a lot of those earlier memories because my husband did not like his picture taken at all. When I knew I was going to loose him he made me promise to keep working on my photography because he loved some of the accidential pictures that turned out pretty good. I found this site but didn't know what I was getting in to. I have made many tabblo friends here, gotten good advice and encouragement to try something different. I'm learning and expanding and really starting to enjoy photography as a hobby too. Thanks to everyone here for the encouragement not to give up.
