Loving my Camera Again!




I have been enjoying my camera lately, to distract my mind from some difficult things that are going on in a family members life. 

Recently I had signed up for a basic course in how to use my manual settings on my Nikon DSLR camera, and think it was worth every penny of the Groupon price I payed for it.






It is really challenging to use the different Aperture, ISO and Shutter Speed settings, so much to learn.

I thought I would post a few of my recent shots... what do you think?

My favorite is the hummingbird, he was almost asking to have his picture taken, as he kept buzzing around me. 

I haven't posted in a while, so please comment to let me know you have come by to visit!

  1. I just bought a Canon DSLR a few weeks ago and haven't really learned to use it yet. I am planning to take a University course on digital photography this summer. I never bothered learning the controls on my point and shoot cameras because automatic is so easy.

  2. I adore your photos and the marvelous ones of humming bird and bee! I admire the heaer on your blog as well, an old barn? I am content using my simple cameras, Samsung smartphone and tablet & pocket size Nikon Coolpix that goes in my pocket. Seeing your photos could inspire me to go return to more artistic and more complicated cameras

  4. I have never succeeded in getting a picture of a hummingbird. I try every summer when I visit my daughter, Loved it and the bee.

  5. Super shots. I have just bought myself a Nikon, nothing as sophisticated as yours, but I could still do with a course! I'm taking it out today to get to know it better.
