My Photography

Postby Trinity » Thu Apr 03, 2008 8:07 pm

I got my first digital camera for Christmas in 2005. It's just a simple point and shoot but I've had some pretty good shots with it.

Like the St. Louis Arch

I really love the portability and quality that my little camera gets me. However, this past Christmas I added a digital SLR into the mix. I can't believe how much fun I'm having now just taking pictures. My favorite local 'shooting gallery' is Fred Meijer Gardens. In March and April they have a very impressive butterfly house and it was the perfect place to test out my new gear. Here are a couple of my favorite butterfly pics:

Anyone else out there play around with photography?

Thanks for the comments.

Those first pics were taken with a Canon SD550. The butterflies I took with my Rebel XTi. Ace is the proud owner of the 40D though.
