Well, so I caved and I got my new camera. I’m loving it…of course I dont get to play as much as I want and I know I got more camera than I need, but I can already tell it takes better pictures and that was what I wanted it for!
Introducing, Reba….my new Rebel T1i ( I kinda like Roxie too, I’m still trying to decide. Which would be a better middle name? I like to call people by their first and middle name, so why not do the same with my cameral…plus Roxie reminds me of my show I love Army Wives…anybody?)
I will admit, she is a little high-maintenance already. I forget that when you buy a new camera, you have to get a new bag, special memory cards, lenses if you want to do anything, filters, etc, etc, etc! So, Reba and all her extra friends have moved in. We will see how it all works out…we are still getting used to each other.
Here are some of the things I’ve been able to document in our first week together:
the books on my coffee table
one of my “left over pork loin” creations…it was so yummy…toasted bagel, spinach, pork loin, peppercorn Harvarti cheese, sliced pear, and asian salad dressing..with pringles and chips…its just doesnt get much better
Another creation, this time salad with strawberries and pears..that dressing will change your life
my basil seeds started doing something
and my marigolds are still alive…cross your fingers!
and, since we have to be honest, I found this guy in my window sill, I finally picked him up…with my fingers!
then there was last weekend…I woke up and found this in my side yard
(that’s a busted water main..that had been spewing for 12 hours)
and led to this..yes, if you had a canoe, you could have used it
then there was this…
and this in my yard when I got home from church
all because my stree got struck by lightening…
yeah, I know….fun times…so, those are my first few days with the new camera
At least you had a cool new camera to document those fun moments!
congrats! i'm totally jealous!
