I saved my money and bought a Pentax ZX-7 35mm. Again, I never got past the "auto" mode - but loved it. Well, I did play around some with the macro feature without any outstanding results. But the landscapes were awesome. The camera really made me want to learn more about photography because I knew this camera was capable of so much more than what I could do with it on green "A".
About this same time, out of the blue, I started receiving a University Professional Studies Catalog in the mail every semester. I had never taken any of their classes, but loved looking through it. Every time it would come I would scan it from front to back and dog ear the pages with classes I'd like to take. The one that ALWAYS got turned down for sure was the page on photography classes. There was always an excuse. My job took a lot of my time, I was married and had kids so didn't want to be away nights, and finally money. It seemed like such an extravagant thing to do when we needed so many other things. I really did not see myself ever being able to take the classes, but I'd dog ear those pages just the same.
