I have a passion for photography. My little brother went and got himself a fancy-shmancy degree in photography, but as I'm broke, I just do it for fun. Here's a little taste of my recent work:

I use a digital camera to take my photos, a Kodak M863. It's kinda old and tiny, but it has a lot of functions that I love.I use a variety of photo editing software on my PC, because each one has something I like. I use:
Picasa is probably my favorite, because it does almost everything I need. Plus, it's free. There's nothing like free.
Kodak EasyShare is another good one, but I don't think it's free
MS Paint (a wikiHow article on how to use it)
Over the years, there have been lots of programs I've loved but sadly lost when I did a necessary OS upgrade, like Adobe Photoshop. I just don't have the money to update my version.
