Now, thanks to the wonder of belated birthday presents (thanks mum!) I have a new camera. Buying it was refreshingly easy... I went into a couple of camera shops, said "I like the look of this, what else should I consider that's similar". The answer in both cases was "That's the best one, you needn't consider anything else". So I got it.
I tried it out in a few places today... first on the dark and dank North Shore where I managed to take a not-totally-blurry photo of Jacek. This is quite a feat in itself. Then this evening I went to the park up the road and took photos of the conservatory, a sculpture, a flower, etc. I'm really pleased so far, and will hopefully take a few photos tomorrow skiing in the backcountry near Mt Baker. My photo experiments can be seen on my Flickr page.
