My Weekend in Pictures

Six years ago I reluctantly put aside my film SLR for a simple digital camera. Last week I took the plunge and purchased a digital SLR (Nikon D3000 with two lenses). This weekend I took it for a little test drive. Not my best photography, but I had a ball trying it out.

My weekend in pictures...and a few words.

surprised a pair of eagles. captured a father/daughter moment. reminded that the fences of the west are not the fences of the east. stopped in our tracks by deer. celebrated cinqo de mayo with a pinata hung from tow truck. spied on a rabbit hiding under a pinon tree. discovered a giant rock that looks like an owl.  experienced snow, high desert and a lifetime of history in an afternoon drive. witnessed our baby eating cake for the first time.

  2. Hey! Congratulations on the SLR. Really nice photos. We are not far behind. I have loved the camera we bought for this trip, but I am ready to take the plunge soon. And Nikon is what I will probably get too...

    Will you guys be back in Maine this summer? I hope so! Let's go camp on that island that David showed me one night. It'd be a blast!
