I tried to figure my camera out a bit this weekend - I think I am officially off of automatic mode now, though still with lots to learn. Here is a bit of what I captured.
Eating Ice Cream.
An obliging butterfly who let me take over 100 pictures before it flew off.
My niece, perfecting the art of being two. (Yes, that is a gift bow next to her - it was part of the decor for the cardboard house the cousins built.)
Hope you had a great weekend too!

Not to shabby! I guess all that stuff you went through to get the camera was well worth it, eh? I'm impressed with the photo's. As always you seem to be really good at that too!

Congrats! You do a great job of composing your shots. I love the facial expressions and the details in the nature pic. The exposure/lighting is excellent! Maybe we should go "play" photographers one day! I still need lots of practice.

These are fabulous! I want to lean how to use my camera in any mode other than automatic too!

The pictures look great! Encourages me to try and learn about my slr camera. I'm on automatic all the time except for the one setting I know to take pics of my jewelry outside. I know there is so much more it can do thought.
That picture of your neice is the best! The art of being 2...thats hilarious!

Love the last photo. :) It looks like you are making great progress with your camera! I'm still on auto with mine right now. I need to play around with it. I've only had it two weeks, though, so that's my excuse. :)
