Oh, how sweet, would you like me to pre-heat the oven or do you want to just jump right in?

I recently purchased a new lens for my camera that is great for portrait pictures. In an effort to also enhance my photo taking ability, I purchased a "Nikon 3000 for Dummies" book. The plan is to read and retain everything in it.

A perfect time for reading should be while I'm on a plane to Hong Kong! I leave this Friday and I'm so excited. It's a much needed and well deserved vacation and I'll also be able to spend time with my family. Most of my family is there so I don't get to see them often. Hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on a computer and update periodically from there!

First two snapshots I took with my new lens

    I have been lusting after a new camera (I just roll with a simple point-and-shoot Samsung digital)... Good luck in your photography adventures! :)

    It is definitely an undertaking to learn all the fancy features of a dslr...I've had mine for a year and still probably don't work it right. I can't decide if I want to invest in a new lens or upgrade my camera....your photo is adorable! :)

    Love your first two shots with the new lens. I recently got a new lens too (Canon). Maybe I should find the Dummies book for Canon!

    Hope you had fun in HK! Cute doggie! :)
