Eeek, I'm so excited!

I just bought my first DSLR camera, a Nikon D3200 24.2MP. It is my graduation gift to myself, a year and a half after the fact. I cannot wait to get it and take it out to practice. I've never taken a photography class before, so it will probably take some trial and error to figure it all out.

Hope y'all had a nice Thanksgiving.
