Persephone:
I haven't done much art lately... I'll be checkin out your work Brooke.
But for all the other photography enthusiasts...
I've decided to save up and buy a Nikon D80. Half because I can borrow my best friends lenses! :D
But the hardest part now is waiting until I get the money saved... WAITING IS HARD!
Especially since I keep seeing deals online MSRP is $800. There was a site that offered a 3 day sale where I COULD HAVE gotten it for $309. GAHH!
I wish I had money NOW!

Hope you like 'em Persephone! I think the ones I posted the first time are better, but the ones I put on tonight are okay, I think.
As far as money... there is a mini-DV camera I want on clearance at target. I know it's a good camera because we have the same one at work, but even so, it's hard to justify spending $160 when I can just borrow one from work for the night. The still camera I used to take the pics on my FB page was a $300 one. The pictures are really good but it doesn't have the detachable lenses. It DOES have one hell of a zoom though, as you'll see from the pictures of the lake and its surroundings. I took those from about a half mile to three quarter mile away, and they came out pretty nice.

I love the pink orchid on the first page... Maybe it's not new, but I like it! :) That and I really like the waterfall at night. Where is that?
And as far as me getting an SLR... I'm sortof in the same boat, I have a pretty good Kodak Digital, zooms okay, and does surprisingly good macros, so I don't NEED a new camera... But I've always WANTED a DSLR. So in Hubby's words,
"If you're going to get a new camera, it better be something you'll live with for a LONG time. There's no point in spending $300 on a camera if its not the one you really want."
So that said... I don't even have 300 yet... It'll take me a while to get that much... BUT I HAVE A DREAM! I just hope I don't run into any major financial issues in the meantime.

We had an SCA event on April 11th and created another subtlety (aka solteltie, meaning food art) It was a castle, 100% edible!
