SNOW!!!

This morning brought snow & the children listening intently to the local radio to see if their schools were closed - but to no avail - they were open booo!

Anyway I took the opportunity to try my camera out in "snow" mode....

Camera arrived



My new camera arrived today, so I've been trying it out. Not very good results yet. I have a lot to learn! It wasn't very good indoors taking the children as either they kept moving, or I moved the camera. I tried to take some shots in the garden, with limited success - lets hope we see some improvements over the months!




I tried to get the berries in focus , but not the leaves! Didn't work, did it?

In the beginning ...

I am waiting the arrival of a new camera. I have the bag and the memory card, but not the camera yet. Hopefully by the weekend I will have the camera too. I hope to learn how to take good pictures, instead of just point and click. Amongst other things this blog will track the progress of my photography skills.
