new camera

I got a new camera recently, in anticipation (can anyone say that word without doing it Rocky Horror style? sorry... tangent) of our trip to Ireland at the end of September. We wanted a better camera with a better zoom, and more options. We settled on the Fuji FinePix S700, the same camera that mom and dad got. So far I'm really happy with it.

So far most of my favorite shots are macro (although I do have two zoom shots here), just because there are so many power lines and ugly houses where I live that it's hard to find something great to shoot that's far away!! Click on the pictures to see them bigger.









On a random note, that picture of my eye is very cropped... because honestly no one should ever see my pores that close up. It was scary. :-) As you can see, I actually have brown and green/grey eyes.

Also, I downloaded these by sticking the memory card into my old camera and downloading them from there since the new camera requires a software download from a CD and our CD drive is currently broken... so they might have looked even better if I had downloaded them the proper way. Hopefully we'll be figuring that out shortly.

Okay, enough rambling. Enjoy the pics.

xoxo

I really love the quality of the pictures with this camera. Drew took some great ones using the macro as well. I will try to post, but our connection is so slow it takes forever. Meg, where were the pics of tomatoes/flowers taken? And in regard to your eye color, I always thought it was like having a combo of your Dad's and my eyes. In fact, though, your eyes are the same as your Grandpa Herbert.

I never knew that about Grandpa's eyes... I like that.

The tomato/flower shots were taken at Travis' aunt's house... they have a big garden. We went there for a BBQ, Labor Day weekend, so I figured I would take the camera and play around a bit.
