I was pretty blown away last night when my family presented me with my Father's day gift.

Well, it's actually on it's way.  :)

As many of you know I love to take pictures, and up till now I have had to borrow the cool camera that I take them with.  I don't really take it out of town or anything, cause it belongs to work.  Well.... with the little bonus I got for ten years on staff and my kids and wife chipping in... I ordered this kit last night.

This is a really big deal for me, and I am just about as blown away with this as I was when I got an ipod a couple of years ago!  SWEET!  Now, watch out, I may be a postaholic pretty soon.



I am so excited!  I am already planning some photo trips and researching how to take pictures of the night sky!

It should be here by Wednesday next week.

Do I sound excited?  :)   :taz

I got my camera yesterday.  17 pound package from UPS.  It made it from New York to Aberdeen in less than 24 hours... pretty cool.  I've been going through all the packages.... nice!

Can't wait to get out there and take some pictures!

Ok, here we go!

New pictures with the new camera and lenses. 

I'm still trying to get used to it.. but it is very cool.

Check these out- and please tell me what you think!















This isn't the best quality, but I almost got the bumble bee in focus! He was very thirsty...  ah nectar! AHHHH








This one just struck me like it would be a good photo, don't know why, just unique I guess.

Vibrant colors, great detail.  Good depth of field, and it looks like you have plenty of good source material.

Yes, I live in a very beautiful part of the country.  In fact, I'm going out to take a walk right now!  It's still nice out!
