It really made me sad, because I was just figuring out how to compose a decent photograph.   So as soon as I got back to the United States, I bought a new camera.  I decided to upgrade a bit and I purchased  the new Sony NEX-5N which is a new type of camera that gives SLR style photos but the camera has no mirror.  It is also is a lot smaller and lighter than the big honking SLR&#8217;s that we see people carrying around.<\/p>\n<p>So this is my first photo shoot with the new camera.  I am still  getting used to it, because it is a very sophisticated camera.  We went to Brookgreen Gardens which is a beautiful and elaborate garden just south of Myrtle Beach.  It was a beautiful fall day and I have always wanted to do a photo shoot of my beautiful wife, Solange.  I also think she was curious to  see if she could model for the camera.  So this is her first attempt at being a model, and my first attempt with my new camera.  Some of the shots are a little over exposed but over all I think it turned out not too bad for a first effort.  Leave us a comment particularly if you know a lot about photography.  As always, the photos look much better in full screen mode.<br \/>\n<iframe scrolling=\"no\" onload=\"this.style.height=(this.contentWindow.document.body.scrollHeight+20)+'px';\" style=\"border-style:none;width:100%\" src=\"\/php\/badges.php?desc=Brookgreen Gardens\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When in Rio, my good old Panasonic Lumix camera broke.
