Photos with New Digital SLR Camera

Recently, I ordered a new digital SLR camera. Inevitably, I immediately took numerous photos once I received it.

Here are some of them (all pictures from my backyard):

Snow & Cat Photos

I took these photos about a week or so ago when it had snowed pretty hard, but haven't really had the chance to post these:

My backyard



Tree in my backyard (My sister's in the background)



Branches of the same tree



My cats fighting (Digital cameras aren't the best at capturing motion)



My cats (Right cat is making a weird face)

Snow

It's been snowing in our area on and off, although today it really hit us. These are a two photos I took of snow in my backyard:



Some snow falling in our backyard during the night a little less than a week ago. All of it pretty much disappeared the next morning.



I took this one this morning. The snow had been falling since last night, and obviously this one is not going to be disappearing anytime soon. In fact, we are supposed to be getting even more snow mid-week!

Photos 1/27

These are a few photos I recently took:



This is my cats' new "nursery". The blankets in the last photo were my sister's, and she had to take them back to her dorm (washed, of course), so my mom and I brought new ones for only $1 each! My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy, but my cats are my babies :)



I took this one today of a historic place near my house called The Three Arches. This is the same building as the one in the B&W photo I took a few years ago shown at the beginning of this blog.



This is the sign of the building. It states it was established in 1684, but I read it was 1712... oh well. Hmm-- wonder if it's haunted?

Pics 1/18

Here are a few pics I took at my house, also taken with my digital cam:

Squirrel in a tree in my backyard



Another one of the squirrel. Like this one better as more detail is visible, color is better, and more of the squirrel's face is showing. I wish the branch that cuts across its ear wasn't there, but that was the best I could do.

Here are a few more pictures I took with my digital camera:

A few more photos for today!

I scanned a few more photos to post for today!








This was taken of my Aunt's cat. I like her eyes, though I wish I could've got some more of the tail.

This one's a bit crooked, but I thought it was pretty cool. This was a Face assignment, and I think the "face" in the design of this chandelier is pretty obvious :P

Here is a Halloween-themed photo! And yes he is a little bit off-center, though for the most part I think it turned out all right.






This was taken of The Three Arches near my house. I think this was my first photo taken on my SLR.
