I'm surprised he doesn't do more with black & white. I'm looking forward to doing more B&W, perhaps because I so admire my dad's photos.<br /><br />I'm sure you're enjoying that camera! Good for you (and Santa). Do you feel a lens addiction coming on? I do. My Amazon order hasn't even been processed, and already I'm contemplating my next lens. Fortunately, I can be happy staying in the contemplation phase for a long time. Thank heavens I'm frugal.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03880145777347900626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12721167.post-43692763038226576782009-09-28T07:57:27.871-07:002009-09-28T07:57:27.871-07:00You know -- I had nearly exactly the same process ...You know -- I had nearly exactly the same process getting my DSLR. I wanted a Nikon D60, but talked myself out of it and purchased a point-and-shoot that was recommended by a photographer blogger from my hometown (http://pointsoflight.blogspot.com). Then I looked at his photos and my photos and changed my mind and begged for a Nikon D60 for Christmas and Santa Claus figured I was a good enough girl this year and sent me one.<br /><br />I'm still only using the automatic settings on my DSLR though -- I need to take a class in photography.<br /><br />Enjoy your camera (and check out James' photographs.)Donahttp://dponline.org/weblognoreply@blogger.com
