Hello and welcome to Canon Blogger. So, what is this place really all about? So glad you asked! Canon Blogger is all about sharing. Sharing insights and experience from a photographer, blogger, an IT Professional for nearly ten years now, and most importantly, an educator! My name is Jason Anderson and I am the host of CB. I have been working with photography in various capacities for about seven years now.
As the name of the blog suggests, you probably know that my gear is based on the Canon family, specifically the EOS line. Don't worry though, as I have dabbled with Nikon, Pentax, and dating back to my youth, even the Vivitar line (specifically a 110 film camera), so content here is designed to be as device-agnostic as possible so everyone can get something from what I am sharing!

Awesome!
As Memorial Day comes to a close, I can honestly say that it has been a thought-provoking day for me. The day started out at our small cemetery for our annual day of remembering those military people buried there. For a small town of 500, we have a big turnout, easily over 100. It is a time-honored tradition that is very respected. I was proud to have my daughters & their children also with us honoring those who have served.
This is the first Memorial Day since our son passed away so it was also kind of a sad day for us all. Although he never served in the military, we could not help but also think of him. We have a new respect for parents & families who have lost loved ones in the line of duty. The heart-wrenching feelings that they go through to see their loved one snatched away from them has to be one of the hardest things for them to bear. Our respect & appreciation to all who serve in the military was heightened today. All I can say is “Thanks & may God be with you!”
Thanks so much for sharing Ann – spot on, and so touching to hear your perspective…my condolences on your own loss…
