I've been studying the manual, and reading literature about the D80 and watching UTube video tutorials... little by little I am learning how to use it.One big hurdle is learning to use it with my indoor photo light setup... I used a paperweight from my grandma Bergstrum's old collection... the glare is pretty bad but it was a good process of not using the AUTO funtion and setting the apperature and shutter speeds manually... then I tried to set the white balance... this I will have to spend some more time studying, becuase I am not sure what I did :)
Then I went outside, it was lightly raining, so I took the tripod and an umbrella and the lens hood...
The glass discs hanging from my tree looked so pretty dripping and spinning in the rain.

These are great photos! Learning a new piece of equipment can be frustrating sometimes, but it can also result in some spectacular new discoveries. It looks like you're getting the hang of things quickly!
Grandmother Moore actually (her married name). But I know you are thinking of Evangeline Bergstrom whose home you visited. The photos are super! What a cool camera. Must be digital?
I'm jealous! That looks like a wonderful camera, and the photos are great! Enjoy the learning process!
