We got blue sky....and we are headed out for the second Sunday in a row for an afternoon off. This day we are taking GiGi our Golden over to our favorite park by the Sacramento River for a walk and a photo shoot with my new camera. My husband surpirsed me with a new camera like "the big boys"....well sort of. We never buy the current "top notch and latest" thing but wait for the new model to come out and then buy up the old one everyone's getting rid of. We save a ton of money that way.
Believe me I have more than I can possibly every learn with this new SLR camera (Rebel XTi). Anyway...excited....I'll share a photo when I get home.....
Space saved for photo take today. See sometime later today. Having fun now!
Things did not go well yesterday. The Winter River is not very pretty and my shots are so big that computer can work with them easily. I ran out of time. So here is a shot from months ago in Lassen Volcanic National Park. I love this! More for later after I buy a new computer to work on my photos!

Have fun out there! Our blue sky was replaced with clouds moving in - boo!
Have fun - and how nice that your husband got you a new camera. I am in the market for an SLR also, and have been looking around.
Jeanean- I'm laughing! It is pretty obvious how excited you are ! Can't wait to see your photos!

Hi Jeanean,
Good for you, hope you've had a good day out there. Got a new toy myself, a new camcorder to upgrade from my little flip. I just hope I can learn how to use it effectively, I'm so much on overload nowadays when it comes to technology.
I love new cameras looking forward to the photo contributions.
Hi Jeanean! How sweet your hubby is to get you a new toy! I'm in need of a new camera but, would REALLY like to take a photography course and get better at taking shots for my listings and Localism posts! My shots are 'okay' but, definitely NOT where I'd like them to be.
Can't wait to see your shots you take with your new camera.
Have a great week...
Jeanean
Nice photo, have fun.
Good luck and success.

Jeanean--Those dang electronic toys!! Your earlier shot is beautiful...I am certain when you get it all figured out, the photos from your new camera will knock our socks off! :)
Gee....Your comments did not show up on my Home screen. So sorry.
To all, thanks for the support. I was so excited to go out and do a photo shoot. Winter was dreary. i must learn to see art in all things! Seasons do not provide art....but the artisit. Thanks for the support. I'm a work in progess.!
