Duzzy

Not one I took today, but a couple of my favorites pictures from my cruise.

Took this on a helicopter tour of George Town, Cayman Islands.

That's awesome, boeckli!

no macro lens for me.. just wide angle and a 30mm 1.4 prime :)

I have a 50mm 1.8 that I love, as well as a 18-200mm 3.5/6.3 that I like. They'll be coming with me on the cruise. Every time I drool over new lenses, the Hubs doesn't get it. I compare it to his wanting new hunting gear all the time. ;)

Awesome photos!

Makes me want a wide angle and macro even more than I already do!

My husband's Dad rents some of his property to some Amish down the road. Their horses look like that, all those burrs (?) in their manes and tails. Just makes me want to cut it out and brush them.

More fall photos ... From yesterday in Ohiopyle PA State Park

Happened to catch some kyakers (sp?) and a rafter going down the rapids, as well as a couple of crazy kids riding the natural water slides. I couldn't imagine how cold it was. That water's cold even on the hottest days!

On to Ohiopyle ...

I LOVE this! Love them all, but this is my favorite. :)

One of my favorite subjects ...

Leaves are already all over the ground. :( I love fall, but I hate to kiss summer good bye.

Went to a local RenFair this past weekend. Here are just a few shots. Wish I'd been able to get closer to the fire dancer or whatever you'd call her ...

My nephew doing I don't even remember what during the jousting. Throwing grass, maybe? His look makes me laugh ...

Duzzy - Your first attempt a fireworks? Are you sure? They look great! A good fireworks image contunues to elude me.

Thanks! I've wanted to try for so long, but either I don't have my DSLR and/or tripod when I see fireworks or I miss all the fireworks. So, I've had plenty of time to read and test settings on my camera. When I set up the other night, I was pretty sure of what I wanted to do. The first few shots were iffy, I changed a couple things until I felt satisfied. They looked fine on the display and I was pleasantly pleased when I pulled them up on the computer.

The next time I'll just wish for open space. My location ended up being between a group of trucks, trailers, and other vendor tents. Though, there were no people. So, I felt my camera was safest there.

Just some shots from the local fair over the last couple days ...

Finally my first attempt at fireworks!

LOVE the fireworks pictures!!

Not something I've had the opportunity to try my had at enough.

Absolutely stunning shots everyeone! I can't wait to get my hands on a D60 or a 7D, preferably a 7D. Not sure I'll have the patience for it though. ;)

A few shots from over the last year with my XSi ...
