I finally bought the camera I will be taking along with me on this trip. It is the Nikon D90 Black 12.3 MP 3.0″ 920K LCD Digital SLR Camera w/ AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens.
I have pretty much no knowledge of how to work it or much related to photography for that matter, but I was once told that I have pretty good composition and just need the right tools. Over the next two months I will be learning how to use this camera which will give me even more to display on the site. Hooray for progress!
