Canon needs to step it up!

I found this interesting article today while surfing the net. Nikon has just came out with a line of mirrorless cameras...sounds interesting! Canon needs to step it up!

Almost fall

Just some pics I snapped tonight of Rocky being harassed by that darn squirrel again!

Found this little guy scratching at my back door window...

The squirrels seem to be doing a lot of this over the last several weeks. This one was scratching at my window this morning...so I took his pic of course!

Fall...already?

Where did the summer go?? I'm not ready for this just yet, but the cooler temps are very nice. Caught these leaves on the patio this evening.

Amazing pics!

Great examples of architecture photography.

A Beautiful IN Sunset

Took this one on my iPad while traveling between Brazil and Terre Haute on our way back to Missouri. The sky was just gorgeous with color!

A Big One Year Old!

People who take pics of small children, I take my hat off to you! This was some serious work to get my grandson to show some kind of happiness...and from the pics you can see he was all over the place in his moods, but I like it this way...very natural and not stiff. These were taken with my external flash on camera...had to shoot straight up and bounce light off the ceiling to avoid harsh shadows. I just purchased a white background/support system from B&H...you do what you can with what you have! I'll do better when I have a couple 430EX flashes. =)

Our beautiful Dalmation of 14 years

Today's pic is dedicated to our dalmation, Oreo. Ms. Oreo, had been having more physical difficulties in the last year. She had arthritis, was going deaf, couldn't see very well...and just in pain many days. Oreo was the most loving, loyal companion. She loved her family greatly as we did her and we will miss her dearly. She brought much joy to us in the 13-1/2 years we had her. ♥
