Oh yes I am, lovin' my new camera lens, that is!
My altogether spiffy, maddeningly complex,
worth every penny ( lots and lots of pennies! )
worth every penny ( lots and lots of pennies! )
Nikon AF-S 50mm f/1.4G lens.
Say that fast three times!Just took a little tour around the farmhouse a couple of days ago,
and snapped a few quick ones...
Crisp, clear, bright and beautiful!
Wanna know what else I'm loving?
See my lovely collection of enamelware pitchers?
Love 'em, can't get enough of 'em.
Which is why I was beyond THRILLED to win the pitcher on the far right
in the amazing giveaway over at Buckets of Burlap.
Thank you SO much Becky, I'm crazy about it!!!
I'll be back next week with more pics of the cottage,
and an upcoming giveaway, too!

Love your pitchers!!! Isn't that great when you love something and you WIN one for free!! Love that!
That lens is on my wish list. I just bought the camera and now I have a wish list...how's that for the "wants"...shame on me!

Lucky girl. I'm on the hunt for a camera :)
Enjoy that lens. The photos are great.
Actually, I thought your photos were pretty amazing before! And now, we get to see even better pixs? What more could we ask for? Well, actually next time your out my way, you are welcome to stop by Country Roads and take some photos. We've got some great backdrops for "said photos"! Have a nice week-end.
Take care, Sue
I'm glad you're loving your new lens! And the pitchers look great together! So glad you are getting moved in and settled.

OH MY Anne, you get all the good stuff:) Love the pictures, the detail is awesome! Congrats on the new lense! HUGS!
Gorgeous pics!
Maybe that's what
I needed...that lens.
I took a D5000 for a
spin but didn't feel
I did it justice.
Back to square one.
Hope you are having
a wonderful weekend, Anne!

Your pictures are just beautiful! I'm so glad that you got your wish!
Love the picture. I have the one you won as well and I love it! It's filled with greenery and berries right now!
XO,

I love your new photos. Looks like a great lens! Oh enamel ware pitchers are so cool. Have a great weekend.
It does a great job! Fabulous images! Time to upgrade to a decent camera again. Had an SLR that was fantastic for years but went back to a point and shoot digital and have never been happy. Just need the $$$$'s now. Its on my list!
Must have a look at 'yours'.
Wow! The pics are stunning! I found this professional photographer dude's site online that has lots of great info about Nikon DSLRs...That's what he uses. He works in the film industry with lighting and photography, so I've gleened alot of info just for my own wee canon :)
Always fun to visit over here....always loveliness.
love your new lens!
I have a NIKON...still don't know a ton about it...mine is a NIKON D5000...
Did you just sit down with your manual or did you take a class?
Super photos!
Love my enamelware collection too...it's timeless!
Bought my copy of Romantic Homes today...couldn't wait to show my sister...my friend Anne's feature!
:)
WOW..those pics are so clear, so real...like 3D. I'm so glad you splurged! Beautiful enamel pitchers too. Congrats on the win!
Aren't new toys wonderful!!! :-)
Hugs,
Diane
Congrats on winning the giveaway - you deserve it!! Love the pictures with the new lens :)
love the enamelware! the pics are gorgeous. I can't wait to see more pics next week.

It would be so wasted on me, but one of these days I will get into it. Maybe after a class or two. It is something I used to do in high school, even had my own dark room down the basement. Of course my dad set it up and I used his. Anyway congratulations on the pitcher and it all looks wonderful
Blessings

Hi Anne,

hugs
Sissie
Yowzers! Can't wait to see what all you create with that new lens! Lezlee
Ahhh your new lens is already busy at work, those shots are incredible Anne! I love the old enamelware too, but much prefer the pitchers to those nasty old "pee" pots. Oops, did I just type that?!! Yep I'm old enough to remember them first hand. xoxo ~Lili
Looking good! Nice that you won~you really needed to have 3 on top of the cabinet! Can't wait to see more pics of the house!
Jody
Your pitchers are wonderful... your pictures too! I'm dreaming of a new camera... watching for sales and reading reviews! The sharpness of your images is great!

I was looking at lenses tonight...and yes they are a pretty penny, but your pictures prove that they are totally worth it!
Love your pitchers too, and lucky you to have won another one!
Kat :)
I bet you could even make this old gal look hot with that new bad boy!
Debbie
Congrats on the giveaway win...and have FUN with that lens!
Oh my goodness - beautiful shots! I splurged on that lens last spring and haven't taken it off my camera since! I am addicted to it! Haha!
The photos you share us are beautiful, have fun taking more.
I really, really, really want a new camera, but I don't know what to get and I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to operate it! The lens makes all the difference in the world! Glad you got it! Can't wait to see you in Jan. at the Red Barn. Are you coming before opening day?

Did I hear you say that you were giving away a Nikon camera lens......?????
Your photos were always so awesome, Anne - but now they're even better. What kind of camera do you use with this new lens?
Oh, so you've got "FBPO" (french body pitcher obsession) too? lol! Between my FBPs and my grain sacks - I'm very easy to keep happy. lol!
