         I don’t own lots of material things really precious to me, but to be honest I have a special affection for my camera. When I was a child, I had a toy in form of camera and I took pictures to play all over the house, in the garden, at my grandparents' house, in the yard of the house, in the garage, etc... In my mind, it was very funny and exciting, to can capture everything with my little fake camera. After, I have the memory, that I tried to take the camera of my parents when we were on vacation, and I took lots of pictures of landscapes, plants, my brother, the ocean, etc… But it was a very expensive material, so they were not really enthusiastic to lend it to me. Later, when I was in middle school, I had my first camera, a small camera that was very easy to use but very valuable to me. I was offered it because I had a one-week school trip to England with the school. I took good care of it during many years. But with the time, taking photos has become more important for me. Therefore, for my 15th birthday, I asked another camera more developed and who took better pictures. I was so joyful, with this new camera, I spent hours walking around taking pictures of flowers, organizing little shootings to train on my best friend, making little videos of the places I visited. I enjoyed taking the beaches on vacation in the summer as much as the snow that fell in my garden in the winter. This camera is very important to me, even if today with my studies I have much less time to use it than before. Since I've been in Murcia, I've been trying to set aside an hour on Sundays to take some pictures of the city. Especially as here it is (almost) always a bright sun, so it is easier to have a beautiful light. I think that all my life, I will be interest in photography, but even if I could change my camera, this one, which was the first “important”, will always stay in my mind.
