photography is effing hard and I don't know what I'm doing with a camera

(Someday, some magical day, I will own a prime lens with autofocus and a flash, and that day will be awesome in the true sense of the word.)

For someone who doesn't know what they are doing with a camera, you certainly take a nice photo.

Also- a real saddle :)

ha! I was thinking the same thing ;)

I just feel like it takes me SO many trash shots to get even one that's worthwhile, especially of things that move, like animals. So tricky. :| And then trying to do anything interesting/artistic with composition is totally out of the question, since "in focus?" and "adequate light?" are such big "ifs," still.

Hah! That horse is actually learning to be a vaulting horse, so soon he'll be wearing a rig instead of any saddle. :D

So beautiful. What are you using?

Thank you. :) I have a D50 and the first two were with a 50mm lens (oldtimey E series, so no autofocus and no light meter with the D50) and the last is just an 18-200mm kit lens.
