Cameras

New camera arrived yesterday. I am a bit overwhelmed at all the buttons and slowly learning how to use it. When I woke up to the rain I thought the magnolia flowers outside looked like teacups, all standing pretty and catching rain. All I want to do is take pictures and play with my new camera... there is not enough time in the day! That is frustrating. But it is so wonderful, I coo at its capable lens and sheer potential.
Everywhere I look there is something fun to snap a picture of - Tony made an origami snail out of a dollar bill.
I thought this dyeing tulip looked like abstract art... I like the colors and the way the petals folded on themselves as they dried up and shriveled.

And kitty is always fun to take pictures of... although yesterday he wanted to be pet rather than have his picture taken, he is giving some love to the legs of a folding chair here in this picture.
