Oh, yeah.
You're lookin' at it.
Sometimes it pays to whine. ;-)
I've been experiencing a three day bout of nausea,
so I plan on spending the afternoon curled up in bed
with my brand new, Nikon D5000 User's Manual.

After perusing it and taking a few test shots,
I suddenly feel very, very blonde.

Warning, steep learning curve ahead!

just taken with the new D5000...(click to enlarge)
Wow!
Havok's eyes have never looked so blue!
And no fancy post-editing either, like I usually have to do.
I think I'm gonna like this!

ReplyDeleteGo to the Pioneer Woman's blog, and click on her photography archives, with Miss Booshay...You'll have it down in a knack, techniques and simplicity you'll not find in the manual.
ReplyDeletewoo hoo! that's exciting! i just got a new sewing machine and i'm feeling a lot like how you are right now!
ReplyDeleteI think the nausea is worth it if you got this camera! I must not be whining enough because I am still dreaming of a Canon Rebel T2i. Tell me Anne, why did you choose the Nikon over a Canon?
ReplyDeleteHappy picture taking!
Congrats on the new camera! Can't wait to see the spectaciular photos you are going to take with it!

WISHING YOU LOTS OF WONDERFULL JOY WITH THIS,---

HUGS, DORTHE
Okay, I am usually very good at not envying my peeps, but I have to confess on this one! You are one lucky gal!!! I was hinting at a real, grown up camera for Christmas, I got another point and shoot. Not quite the same as I was thinking...
ReplyDeleteI know you will have many wonderful things to take pics of! Have fun and enjoy it enough for the rest of us!
Kate
Congratulations! so happy for you. You will enjoy your new toy! I hope you get to feeling better soon. Be blessed. Cindy
ReplyDeleteAnne, I'm happy for you, I have a terrible time taking good pictures, I don't know if it's the camera or me~~~ but I'm pretty sure it's me. Blessings~~~ Daphne
ReplyDeleteHurrray!!!!! Yes! I am all for getting what you want/need and you did good grll. and hey, its a tax write off....so you go .
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Glad you got it. Enjoy yourself!
ReplyDeleteYES, I KNOW that "blonde" feeling with something new. I am NOT a manual reader, but instead, an experiential learner.... and some things I intuitively "experience" faster than others! I received a camera for my b-day and am still crawling along with it. I am going to enroll in an on-line camera class that is for beginners like me. I HOPE that you are feeling better soon, but glad you have something fun to play with while you are under the weather : ) Take care of yourself! xx P&H
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new toy!
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better!

So happy for you! You'll have to let us know how you like it because I suspect that I'm not the only one out here that's dreaming of a good camera...enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSorry you are feeling icky. What a beautiful fur-child you have and yes those eyes are over the moon. Happy photoing...
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! I've been thinking about a new camera, too, but haven't started saying it out loud yet. My birthday isn't until August, so...
ReplyDeleteAt least you have something to concentrate on while you are laid low. By the time you are up and about those 'blonde' moments will be forgotten in your excitement at using your new baby.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the market for a new camera, so I'm glad to see this post. I'll take a look at this one. Love the shots. ~ sarah
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! We will all probably reap some benefits!
ReplyDeletePam
I sure hope you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteLove your camera. Hope you have lots of fun with it.
Been thinking about you.
WOW!!! Lucky girl, it is fabulous. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteDebby
