Fresh off the Assembly Line!

Well, here it is... my new camera and isn't it a beauty? I guess it's brand new and the latest in Sony photo technology. All I know is that I like the zoom capabilities. I used to carry a Nikon EM that had an 8 inch zoom lens until I bought my first digital. This is my second and I really like it!
So lets see what it can do shall we?
This little guy was sunning on a twig in the front yard and not at all afraid of my peering over the fence at him. He even did a couple acrobatic moves for me.

Isn't he just lovely!

The colors look pretty accurate.
This is some fabric I plan to make a table cloth from.

Elmo, who is usually shy of the camera for some reason decided to check it out today. I think he wonders why does his mom have this thing attached to her face. He's my serious child.

Looks like someone had a little bit too much fun last night!

AH! The roses are still blooming here in our lovely little hamlet of Anasleim...
Oops! I meant Anaheim. This is my English Rose, Abraham Darby. Beautiful isn't it?

Hey there! What a wonderful camera you got! Those photos are to die for! I need a new camera. I should check out the one you got. Is it hard to learn to use?

Hugs,

How exciting, and it is taking fantastic pictures.

I adore your babies. I have always had a soft spot for little dogs, and yours are gorgeous.

Abraham Darby has always been a favorite of mine. We are still having blooms, too.

WoW! Your new camera takes crystal clear pictures. Beautiful! And that fabric is gorgeous, it reminds me of Marie Antoinette(the movie version with Kirsten Dunst)
