It makes that much of a difference in the picture quality while shooting in low-lighting and while trying to capture things that move really, really fast -- like little boys who switch activities faster than I can blink.
{By the way, Maegan wrote a good post about knowing when to make an equipment upgrade.}
I tackled my photo project this week with zest ... until I felt mastitis coming on full force about mid-week.
Instead of full-speed rushing through the illness and pushing my body, I mentally argued with myself and decided that in keeping with my life-encompassing word for 2011 -- be{ing} {as opposed to doing} -- that I should really listen to my body and just heal.

So a few of my days remain pictureless... and I'm OK with that.
Because this project isn't about perfection; it's about growth and expressing creativity and documenting our days.
And I finally feel like I've found my groove -- less pressure equals more fun and more knowledge and all of that equals better captures.
This 365 Photo Project was inspired by Maegan.
