My New Camera!

My New Camera!!

After a lot of deliberation, I finally purchased my new camera. Thanks to everyones birthday contributions, I was able to buy a Canon. I am very excited (and somewhat intimidated) by all the things I need to learn, but I already played around a bit. Below are some of the pictures I have taken so far. The pets were good sports to be my models!

Hugo looking guilty about something...probably getting ready to jump on the table.

Nothing great about this one but I love Sophie's tail being right in the picture.

Sophie is hard to get to stay still. But she finally let me take one.

 Chomsky was standing there nicely...what you can't see is the tennis ball below his feet. He is hoping I would stop taking pictures and play! I began to experiment with blurring the background on this one.

 Trying to get a good shot of the pond. I used the "action" feature on this one.

 I didn't have my zoom lens out yet...but I liked how this one turned out. Weeds can be pretty right? :)

 Flowers are already blooming...crazy weather!

 Otis is not thrilled with the camera in his face. He thinks he is the boss.

 This was for Jonathan and his obsession with birds.

Thanks to everyone for helping me get my new camera. I love it! I will post more as I learn how to actually use it!
