olympus xa2

I bought an olympus xa2 35mm point and shoot at a thrift store a couple weeks ago and it works perfectly. It's a great camera just to throw in my purse. I really have to work on my focusing though.

Introducing Nino's younger brother Johnny. 

I'm kind of in love with him. He's twelve years old and plays baseball. When you ask him a question, he answers with a sound that is a cross between" HUH?" and "HAH?" He won't look me in the eye for more that three seconds. He claims he's shy.

Two things photojournalism has taught me:

1. I'm a pretty good interviewer.

2. I'm not that great of a shooter.

I see moments, but I'm not good enough to really catch them yet. I'm always seconds too late. I don't notice my edges. I shoot with little reason. I need to train my eye. There is so much more that I have to learn. I need to shoot, shoot and shoot until my fingers twitch because of touch memory.

I'm going to give my all to this project, 150%.
