Kansas City Art District

Last fall, me and my friend went to Kansas City on a Wednesday to go to a concert. We drove to KC at noon and spent the afternoon just wondering around in the city and we ended up at the art district.

We saw many graffiti there and I really like graffiti. The afternoon light made me feel lucky that day.

First Roll

I finally bought a Canon AE-1 this spring. I had been thinking about to buy a real SLR in the past few years, but never thought that I can handle one. Plus, it is so expensive in the secondhand market in Taiwan and in the camera retail stores here in the U.S. In Taiwan, an excellent body and a standard 50mm would cost roughly $200, and the retail stores in the U.S. would be more than $100. I decided to give eBay a try, since I haven’t had any bad experiences buying cameras from eBay. So, I got a quite nice AE-1 body with a standard 50mm and a 28mm lenses that cost me around $60 or $70. Good deal!

Here is my visit to the Soulard Farmer’s Market in St. Louis with my AE-1’s first roll!
