Greetings steemies!

I hope you had a fine day today as I did. This is my second shot on #upfundme. The first one was used to fund my Mother's eye surgery last May and June and it was successful thanks to this community. Now, I'd like to try my luck again starting a new fund raising.

This photo collage was made via canva while the pictures inside where downloaded via kimstore. Basically, this photo describes my next project.

I love wandering around and it started from 8 years ago. I was amazed with nature trips, landscapes, the different cultures, churches, beaches to underwater views. From then, I began my love of photography. It is one of my biggest dreams, to have a decent camera to show the world how beautiful the things around us are. I use to have a digicam before but unfortunately it is not with me anymore. Photography isn't about how you point and shoot the camera, but it is about how you see what's infront of you that makes the pictures meaningful. I actually have written my plead before and you can read it here To Infinity and Beyond: First step in Achieving my Goal.

About the Camera

At first, I really planned of buying a DSLR but it is kind of bulky and big so that's why I opted for a mirrorless camera which pointed me to Sony A6000. It is a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (MILC), which has a smaller body form factor compared to the traditional DSLR. It was actually released around 2014. The brand also, Sony, is one of the trusted brands especially for cameras. The reason I chose a mirrorless camera is because it is easier to carry around especially when you're travelling. It has also the same quality of DSLR's when it comes to the output.

My Goal

So here I am knocking again on your kind hearts to make one of my dreams possible, to have my own camera. Whenever I travel I just borrow the camera of my friend or use my phone. In weeks time I will be celebrating my birthday and your help to achieve my goals is pretty appreciated. But I really don't expect to achieve this goal on the next month which is my birth month so I'll be running it just in time for Christmas then. :)

Target Amount:
Php 28,800.00 / $ 533
In SBD - 531 / Steem - 626
(As of Sept. 23, 2018 rates)

Target Duration:
3 months (Sept-Dec)

I look forward to take more photos and share it to everyone! By the way, here is another photo I edited on canva.com which showcases one of my first adventures outdoor.

I took this photo using a Casio digicam but eventually I dont have it anymore. It was misplaced by one of my friends.

Thanks for reading and dropping by! If I can achieve my goal, I can refuel my passion thru photography and share positivity and good vibes to everyone including this community! :)

Love lots,
