Exploring with our new camera

About 4 days before Christmas at a family party our beloved camera took a fatal fall. We replaced her pretty quickly and splurged a little on an SLR camera. Well we haven't done much with the camera because the weather's been miserable and even in the snow the pictures were bright and funny.

Anyway we had some pretty nice weather the weekend and headed out to Abby's favorite place- Shaker Lakes. Ernie is a budding nature photographer and had lots of fun with the camera and the cool super zoom lens that came with it. Here are just a few of the pictures- there was just a small family of ducks and 2 geese. We actually saw 2 of the male ducks fighting for the attention of a female. It was lots of fun.







Also we probably need a cheap camera Abby can use- she was sad she couldn't take pictures with the new camera. So put the word on the street we are long for a decent inexpensive digital camera for Abby (but not a kid camera).
