Wow - my favorites are pic 1 and pic 2! :)

Hey, and I finally got my little digital camera (only a couple of years after you sent me a great site to compare options). It's a Canon PowerShot A590.

Nice choice. I bought Lorelei the 570is for her birthday last year. Have you posted any photos from it yet?

[tn-grrl.livejournal.com]

I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't yet taken any photos (ok, one of dariens_haircut that he immediately made me delete).

I'm going to make myself go outside tomorrow and see what looks interesting! :)

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Cool. Want to go shooting next time either of us is in the other's neighborhood?

[tn-grrl.livejournal.com]

Sure thing! If you don't mind being out there with a complete novice. :)

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Well, it's more the "being out with a friend" part I was looking for. The cameras are just an excuse.

[tn-grrl.livejournal.com]

*smiles* You know I'd love hanging out with you with or without cameras.

[tn-grrl.livejournal.com]

Also, dariens_haircut informs me that my camera is hackable. ;)

[misterx.livejournal.com]

wonderfully so. There is free aftermarket firmware than can replace the factory firmware, giving you additional abilities. The "see through clothing" hack is one of my favs.

...and for those telephoto shots.....

I wouldn't mind one, as long as it came with a crew of three to man it.

The words that come immediately to mind are whimsical and magical. Lovely.

Glad you like them. :)

Jeez Louise!

I thought I couldn't be more jealous.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Oh great, what did I do now?

[ruethee.livejournal.com]

Took awesome pictures with awesome equipment. Not like "I hate you" jealous, but "OMG I wish I were him" jealous.

I suppose my pictures are good, considering what I take them with (a Nikon Coolpix 4800 point-and-shoot that's almost 5 years old).

They are all really great, but I absolutely love number 2. ^_^
