I got a new toy!..

No..It's not a speedy new bike. It's something I've been craving for a while.
..because I wanted a different perspective.
Something I can experiment with.
So hold onto your hats.


...this could get ugly!

I'm holding my hat as tightly as I can but I can't help wanting to reach out and fiddle with your new toy. What fun!

What? What?

Hat-I am really havin' fun!...and the fidling is an added bonus. ;)

lorraine-Well it's a new camera,silly!
It's faster,and sharper and takes better close-ups,and comes fully equipped with white sidewalls,and factory air conditioning,and it's just way better than my old one...I just wanna post better photos.
Now all I have to do is figure out how.

Oooo Sling! I likeee your new toy. My digital camera is real basic but I'm so glad to have it. I love perspective shots so the sprinkler heads is my favorite. I was paid as a teen to take pictures of other teens doing clean-up work in Boston and worked with a pentax k 1000, a manual camera. It was so fun learning the process from beginning to end. I never could get the hang of it completely, though.
I guess we are in for photos, photos, photos.

As always...

new camera or new program?

danielle-I like the perspective shots as well.
I've got a lot of work to do,figuring out exactly what I can do with this.

Citymouse-It's a 6 megapixel Nikon camera doll. :)
I have Photoshop CS8,and Corel 12 programs to play around with.
My old camera wasn't able to capture stills of moving subjects very well,and took poor pix in low light.

Well, ding dong. I guess I just assumed those were pretty pics you kyped from Google images to lead us down a primrose path. Nicey nice!

i need a new one too. my old junker doesn't word very well with vista.

a bike would have been a good second choice for a new toy.

Well done images. The action shot of Blaze's tongue is classic. I may ask to borrow it.

Rube-I showed Blaze a pic o' ruby..She wants to be friends!

Hat-That tongue is her most deadly weapon.
I'm off to read your blog now.

Blaze called Violet and asked that you retake the picture and please take that eye bugger off his/her eye. The poor dog is embarassed. Great quality pix....I want a new digital but Steve is not budging at the moment. I may have to use a barganing tool.

um ... [brushes tear away, takes deep breath] maybe it's my camera, reincarnated. It got broken yesterday, and I'm just crushed about it. Great pics and great effects.

rosemary-Au contrere!(sorry...it's bastille day),Blaze is most proud of her eye bugger.
It's nice that you have a bargaining tool..Mine's not such a bargain anymore.. ;P

M.Cowbell-Oh No!!..A Friday the 13th Camera tragedy!
That just sucks.

Noce set of photos. Nothing like a new camera - they are great toys. In the last photo, it loloks like Blaze is licking her lips in anticipation of snapping up thta strange glowing thing in front of her.
