Canon Locked and Loaded

So I just purchased my first Digital SLR camera tonight, and am super excited to start using it (in 2 hours time when the battery is fully charged, yawn). As a photog student at high school, I have missed photography a great deal and have finally decided to take it back up as a hobby. Lack of funds prior to this buy have always landed the ever wanted DSLR on a wishlist, now thanks to family and friends who spoilt me with money on my 21st a few weeks ago, the Canon 550D is now my most prized possession - second to my macbook pro of course.

I can't wait to start taking pictures, will upload some photos I take up on here as soon as I get the hang of this new bad boy. Happy snapping!
