still getting used to my new camera

Posted: April 15th, 2008 | Author: | Filed under: Picture Geek | 2 Comments »

I love my camera, I really do, I’m just not used to using it yet. I’ve been trying to snap a few pics every day to try to get used to the settings and the flash and all the goodies. But, like always, my memory stinks and I usually forget. Or you end up with a lot of pictures of the cat because he’s the only thing that will hold still long enough other than a piece of fruit….

without flash:

without flash, but it was sunny:
zoned out....

lights out and candles lit:
happy 11th birthday Dylan

fidgety squirmy little boys give me blurred pics like this even with the image stabilizing feature:

So…. I’m not quite a pro at taking pics yet obviously! I need more practice so there will be much snapping of the shutter and lots of pictures of inanimate objects in the future. Please point me towards your photo blogs, tips, and other photo taking goodness…

    the monkey plate is cute, but the pics of the boys are cuter :)

    Isn’t it fun playing with new toys?

    Very fun! I need to remember to take more pictures. I’ve now got two cameras on my desk charged and ready to go daily that I always forget to turn on and actually use!
