Moving to Holland is not easy, but it's worth the effort. This blog tells the story of shifting from American life in Pittsburgh to Expat life in the Netherlands,
and all of our European adventures that follow.

She's 1 year old!

One year ago this month, we made our big DSLR camera purchase: the Nikon D5000. (Along with a two of her close companions, the prime and wide angle lenses.)


It took hours, no days, of researching our options, and a lot of help from our great and experienced friends, to make a decision. Now that we have this camera, we really don't know how we lived without it.

Here are a couple of the websites that we used, maybe you'll also find them helpful:

http://www.dpreview.com/

With all of the practice we get during our traveling, we're getting better and better at both framing and post processing the pictures.

I look forward to capturing all of the exciting things to come in the future!
