About Christie
I am a Mom to a 12 year old Boy, who is such an angel...when he wants to be. I am in my mid-thirties. I am currently working but laid off due to the job being seasonal. I love my job! I enjoy scrapbooking and gardening. I've been doing both now for over 10 years. I have also been dating my Boyfriend for about 6 years, he has asked me to marry him but it will have to wait....too soon. Only been divorced since 2000. Not in a hurry to remarry.
I "USED" to work for a HUGE hardware store out in the Lawn and Garden center as a vendor unloading annuals and perennials. I loved my job, I loved seeing all the new plants and helping out the customers who are just learning how to garden. In my spare time, which is often. I have enjoyed taking pictures. I've been doing it for years, just never really wanted to invest in the accessories and a nice camera. So this year, I decided to buy myself a nice camera. I had my mind set on buying the Canon Rebel XTi. But the price stopped me. I noticed how much the lenses were and holy cow, I don't think so. So this nice gentlemen at the electronics store showed me the next best thing. I bought myself a Sony H9, its a point and shoot but it has the option of a very nice zoom. I surprised myself. I got some great shots of eagles. I can buy add'l lenses for my camera if I want. This is my hobby, will never do professional. I believe that photos come from the heart. There are some photographers out there who do a wonderful job and have since taken their hobby to a professional level. I applaud you. I just enjoy doing it without the expense.
I would love to be able to have more opportunities to review cameras, I am always seeing lots of different cameras with different options now. And would LOVE, to review some without the expense.
