Long Time No Blog!

OK, not gonna apologize for not blogging lately... I am just gonna jump in here to show you a few pictures I have taken with my new Baby! Yep, that's right, I got a new camera! It is the Olympus SP-565UZ. It is a 10 MP, 20X optical zoom camera... All I can say is wow! I like what I have seen so far!!! Here's a few photos I just took playing around...

The first one is taken with just the zoom.... this is my bleeding heart, I can't wait for it to get bigger and bloom!


This was taken with the macro and zoomed in. (I talk so technical huh? LOL) It is the red bud tree, which actually has purple blooms.


The last 2 were taken on super macro setting. I love these oh so close up shots!!! My poor pitiful hyacinths only half bloomed this year, I am assuming cause of the crazy weather!

Beautiful pics, wonderful clarity! I'm getting ready to get a new camera myself and this just makes me want to quit with the shopping around (done enough!) and just DO IT!!

Oooooooooh a cool new toy! Your photos are fantastical! I love the one of the hyacinth, even though it's droopy. You are going to have so much fun with your new camera. WOO HOO!!!

Great pictures Linda. I'll have to see if my camera has a macro setting and see if I can figure out how to use it.
