Faithful friend, you have served me well....
You opened up a whole new world to me
You've taken me places I've never been
And shown me things I've never seen
You've helped me see old things in a new light
And you've opened up a world of possibilities to me.
Thank you, my trusty Canon Power Shot A1100 IS!
All the shots you've seen in this post were taken

Since my POST from two days ago asking for camera advice,
I've narrowed it down to two choices...

The previously mentioned Nikon D5000 and now the Canon Rebel XSi.
I never knew when I started blogging almost 9 months ago
that I would fall in love with photography to the extent that I have.
I knew that I loved writing more than life itself,
but this whole new, beautiful world as viewed through the lens
has been a huge, unexpected, glorious surprise to me.

I knew you were talking about a camera! I too have fallen in love... with my camera. I bought myself a used Rebel xti last year and I'm very happy with the pictures it produces. I think its all about the lenses.
Is that your Siberian Husky? I have one, too! Her name is Banshee Wayne. Aren't they the sweetest animals? I love mine dearly.
happy shopping! I can't wait to see what you get!
Hi Anne. I just woke up hungry and sat at the computer for a late night snack. I'm so glad I did because I've haven't been by in a while. You're a wonderfully talented photographer. You are an artist in every way. You have a wonderful minds eye whether your crafting, decorating, writing or photographing. Thanks for giving me such beautiful images to fall asleep with.
Hugs and Happiness....Tracy :)
Hi Anne,
I love all your wonderful photos and glad that you are enjoying your trusty Cannon.
Since I started blogging, I see everything in a different light too and there is so much beauty out there.
Thanks for all you share.

Happy Tuesday!
Hi Anne
A beautifull trip through the year, -your photoes are fantastic, and you arefinding beautifull angels everywhere.
Thanks Anne.
Hugs, Dorthe
Beautiful pictures!! Hubby has a Cannon Elon ( big sicker, non digital...but loves it and it takes gorgeous pictures...he needs a class about lens use though...since he bought the next size lens up, he wants to use it all the time, and I keep telling him he can't, it is for more far away things or for images that you want to blur out certain things to just focus on one. He's still learning...but hey what do I know I use a kodak easy share digi...but it also takes great shots.
Susan
Great pictures dear Anne! Love my camera too! Can't wait to see what you decide to buy. Enjoy your day my friend:) HUGS!
Great photos. Nothing could be more true than how the world changes when viewed through the lens of a camera. Good luck in deciding which one to buy. My first major camera was a canon rebel slr, now I have 3 nikons, not sure why the switch, but they are all great...so was the canon.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Take Care, Carrie
What lovely photos!! I have the d5000 and I love it! I really like your look and the chippy paint, antique silver, etc. Off to explore your blog and your etsy shop!

I adore my Rebel! I've never learned all the functions on it, but its got such a good lens that I am happy with the automatic features.
You take such pretty photos, you certainly deserve a really good camera!!

Beautiful photos, Anne! I have a hunch you could make anything look fabulous even with a disposable!
... meant to throw in my two cents... The C word rules at this house ... and then editing with the M word ... hehe

Beautiful photos! I know just what you mean... I drug my feet, not wanting to switch to a digital camera for the longest time. Once I did, I couldn't believe how much I *loved* and *enjoyed* it!! :)
A lot of beautiful photos ! I dont think I could pick a favorite ! I would love to get a new camera , on my wish list for the year ! Have a fabulous day !
Eunice
Anne, you're already a very talented photographer and I'm sure that you'll discover all your camera possibilities. No one will ever stop you then!!! I will enjoy your progress!!!
hugs Zaira
I feel the same way - Photography has become such a passion for me since I started blogging. I, too, had a little Canon and then moved up to a better camera. Isn't it fun?

Loving all of the photos, no matter which one you pick, with your eye behind the lens you can't go wrong! I really never gave taking pictures as much thought as I do now... another plus for blogging! Theresa
Gorgeous photos..thanks for sharing.

Hi Anne! I love the photos. Since I have started blogging I have paid more attention to architectural details than in the past. Isn't that weird or what? I was blessed to get an early Mother's Day present from my boys last Saturday, a Kodak Easy Share M550. I'm loving it! They felt sorry for me because my other camera was so old that my computer wouldn't even pull the pictures off anymore with XP! Thanks for the comments you leave on my blog. Have a good week and keep posting those great pics!
just finished viewing the photos and as i was digesting all of them, i was thinking, how do these bloggers do all this? have a full time job, set up all these thoughts in a photo for all of us? such talent and artistic ability. Wonderful! could i just mention someone that i have known for years through her business. Elaine at at-choo.com has a wonderful fairy like hand made gifts. and she has a brand new blog out there that could be checked out. check it out and you will see how she runs her life. it is at-choo.blogspot and her catalog is at at-choo.com you will enjoy! thank you, Bestest,Denise
Hi! I have wanted to comment for awhile, so I thought I would this evening...as I too am in Texas~Katy to be exact, and a kind of new friend of Theresa's =) I wish I would have visited you at the festival, but I am sure I will in the fall.
I too am a lover of photography, and use a Nikon P80 which I love dearly =)
Come visit when you can~

What a sweet tribute to a beloved friend Anne. I know we all feel that our cameras are truly our friends. I can't wait for the new pics we will be treated with here.
hugs
I've found photography to be one of the most FUN parts of blogging, too, Anne! I want to learn more!
Hi Anne: I'm right there with ya on falling in love with photography.....who knew? Love my Canon too!! Your photos are "magnifique"!
Anne ~ To think it was our dear Sasha that lead me to your blog....I just love it: your words, your images....it's all lovely. Thank you so much for the kind comments that you left on my last post. I wrote it to give comfort to my dad and daughter, but it has been the extraordinary words of other bloggers that have brought the most solace to them. I wish I could give you advice on cameras, but I am taking baby steps in that department....and loving an outlet for the beauty that I want to capture, beyond words. My husband gave me a Sony DSLR for my b-day and so far, I really like it. xx P&H
Thank you for dropping in, what a surprise! I love your photos I think that camera has done a pretty good job for you. Will see you again soon
Oh how exciting to get a new camera, I long for one,,,,photography is a grand escape into creativity. Have alot of fun!
