There are some members that commented on my post. One of them is @jkr88 . From his profile he lives in Austria. It is a part of the world that I have never imagine how beautiful is the country in Europe.

I have a dream to have a camera. On his comment he asked me How much is a camera?

Then I answer for beginner photography is about $300. That is a just a camera for me as beginner. I think you have an better ideas what a camera for beginner.

Two days later he said in the comment

I would like to send you 300 USD worth of Bitcoin. Would you give me your Bitcoin adress?

I was so amazed with him. He was so kind. He doesn't even know me before. I just say I can pray for him and his family to be in abundance and happy life.

I received $300 in bitcoin from him. Then On Thursday , 4 March, 2021 I decided to go to a camera store.

Unfortunately, a camera store is rare in my country. In a center of business and mall, I searched around the shop. I found one and asked to shopkeeper. Oh my god, photography is an expensive hobby. The cameras there ranges from $500 to $2000 . I thought I went to wrong shop. I read reviews on the photographers from some websites nights before.

I should look for other shops. Then I walked a along the mall, from one building to others. When I was tired. I was stuck by an advertising board on a mall. " Canon". Yeah there was a small board "Canon' on a small counter. Then I went there. I asked the shopkeeper. He was a good guy who answer politely. I asked the spec of the camera I want. Then he answered with two options. First, Sony then Canon. First time he explained about Sony, that the battery is not rechargeable. Then I decided to see canon.

Canon Powershot SX430 IS is a digital camera with some features. For me the camera is enough. The price of the camera was about $200. So I still have $100. I decided to use the rest of the fund to create a website for my photoblogging hobby.

In the next few days, I will tell the story how to set up photoblogging blogsite with minimum budget.

This the first camera I have. I still zero knowledge about photography but I like to learn. There are many things that I should learn from photography but I enjoy this hobby. In the future, photoblogging is my dream job. I can make money from photoblogging.

This are the first best shots that I took.

This is a leech. It sticks on an old tree. I use macro setting for the photo.

This chicken photo is from 15metter distance.

Those are two best photos that I take.

I just say thanks to Joseph. He is a great man , and a great father. In the future, I will join photography communities in hive so I can learn from other members that have great skill in photography.
