new camera and field trip day!

Over the last few months I've been debating purchasing a digital SLR camera. I've always wanted to learn more about photography and being here seemed the perfect time to do it. I finally settled on which model to get, and my brand new Canon 1000D arrived this week.

So far, I am really enjoying it. I was taking so many pictures the other day at work that my boss said "somebody's getting obsesssed." Timing worked out perfectly though, because today held a great photo op: Kindergarten Field Trip.

The foreign teachers didn't have to attend the field trip and had the morning off, but I still got myself to school at 9:30 to take pictures of the kids getting ready to go. For this field trip, they all wore Hanboks, traditonal Korean dress. The kids loved posing and I took over 100 pictures in about 20 minutes, moving throughout all the kindergarten rooms. Here are a few of my favorites:
