I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. In fact, a man stopped me today in the antique mall and said, you're smiling (mind you I was alone). I replied, "Yup, I just found a phenomenal place to get my camera repaired!"
For those of you who know me, you understand when I say that I am obsessed with 'capturing the moment.' I often stop to offer to take pictures for other people when I see one not able to 'be in the picture' because someone has to take it. They are usually quite appreciative once they realize that I am not trying to 'take' their camera. A couple of our friends have been telling me that I should get into the business of photography and they have a lead or two for me.
So....... that means that I really need to take action to get my camera fixed because it has a pesky couple of marks in every pix that has a light background, such as the sky or a white wall. I let my ESP (Extended Service Plan) lapse (that was $200 for one year), so I took my camera into Wolfe to see if they could fix it. The lady was so very nice and helpful. I showed her prints so that she could see exactly what I was talking about. She immediately said that the camera just needed to be cleaned and gave me the name of the shop to take it to. (the same one that provides the ESP service)
So..... I proceed to Peachtree Camera Repair shop, which btw is right near our place. The guy was so nice and indicated that they could have my camera and both lenses cleaned by 4pm the SAME DAY and that it will only cost $60. Yeah! I am so happy now!
I also mentioned that I have a Nikon N60, but that it probably isn't worth much right now. He told me about a camera show that will be taking place next weekend that I may be able to trade it in for another lense or accessory (I'm also thinking speed light)
He also told me about a group named Women in Focus who is comprised of both professional and amateur photographers. They meet once a month on the second Wednesday at the Emory Conference Center. I plan on attending the meeting this coming week to see what this is all about. If you check out their site, you will find some phenomenal photography. I can clearly see that I have so much to learn from them.
So..... if you have a camera that needs to be cleaned or repaired, check out Peachtree Camera Repair as you can also ship your camera to them. I am going to keep a permanent link on our site just in case you need to stop back.
Now..... off for an exciting weekend with a group of girl friends. I am sure we will have lots of opportunities to 'capture the moment'!
