My New Toy…and another goal accomplished!

For a number of reasons that I don’t need to get into here, I’ve been dying for a DSLR camera. I don’t really need one…really. But I love what they can do and I also love the idea of having a very high quality camera to capture life. And that falls right in line with my hobbies of scrapping and blogging. Anyway…we saved up for a few months and we made the purchase this weekend. Very exciting and very cool. I haven’t had much time to mess with it…and I know I’ll never be able to do everything the camera does…but my best friend has a camera just like this and she was my initial inspiration for the purchase. So I’m hoping she’ll teach me the ropes and a little of her photog creativity will rub off on me!  This also accomplishes half of my goal mentioned here…and the other half is a class. That is still in the works!

Here are few of the first pics I took.
