-## Why Photography?
-
-I've often wondered why photography is as enticing as it is. You can
-see billions of people around the world taking photographs every single
-moment of the day. New technology often boasts about their photographic
-capabilities, especially smartphones. I would even assume that we live
-in a world where there is never a moment in which a photograph is not
-being taken somewhere on Earth.
-
-As for myself, I would simply say that I enjoy preserving a memory in
-physical (or digital) form. I've never had the best memory when it
-comes to recalling details of places and people gone by, so it helps to
-have a frame of reference lying around.
-
-Regardless of the reason, I think most people would agree that you
-simply cannot have too many hobbies.
-
-## Older Cameras
-
-I started playing around with the idea of photography when my family
-purchased a Fujifilm camera for family-specific events. I don't recall
-the specific model, but I do recall it was a point-and-shoot camera
-without an interchangeable lens. However, it was of great value to
-someone, like myself, who couldn't afford any other camera. I took
-about 10,000 shots with that camera over a 3-5 year span. Most notably,
-all of my trips to California were documented through this camera.
-
-When possible, I would borrow my sister's camera, which is a Sony
-SLT-A58. This camera was great and allowed for some of my best early
-shots, especially those taken in Utah's and Nevada's parks.
-
-## My Current Kit
-
-I've finally come to a point in my life where I have the disposable
-income to invest in a solid photography kit. I played around with the
-idea of a lot of different cameras, different types, new vs used, etc.
-Finally, I settled on the [Sony α7
-III](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_%CE%B17_III). This camera is
-mirror-less and uses a full-frame image sensor at 24 megapixels. I
-don't create large prints, and I am mostly focused on preserving
-memories in high quality for the next 5-10 years with this camera, so
-the specifications here are just perfect for me.
-
-For lenses, I decided to buy two lenses that could carry me through most
-situations:
-
--   [Vario-Tessar T\* FE 24-70 mm F4 ZA
-    OSS](https://electronics.sony.com/imaging/lenses/full-frame-e-mount/p/sel2470z)
--   [Tamron 70-300mm f4.5-6.3 Di III
-    RXD](https://www.tamron-usa.com/product/lenses/a047.html)
-
-In addition, I grabbed a couple [HGX Prime
-67mm](https://www.promaster.com/Product/6725) protection filters for the
-lenses.
-
-As I delve further into photography and pick up more skills, I will most
-likely go back and grab a lens with a higher f-stop value, such as
-f/1.8. I toyed with the idea of grabbing a 50 mm at `f/1.8`,
-but decided to keep things in a reasonable price range instead.
-
-Finally, I made sure to buy a photography-specific backpack with a rain
-guard, and the zipper on the back panel, to protect the equipment while
-wearing the bag. If you've ever had to haul around a DSLR (or camera of
-similar heft) in a bag that only has a shoulder strap, you'll know the
-pain it can cause. Putting all my equipment in a backpack was an easy
-decision.
