One day, I started looking at the new Nikon camera, the D300. I shouldn't have. I have owned my D70 for four years now and have absolutely loved it. I didn't think I needed anything better until I looked. Shouldn't have looked. Shouldn't have looked. My brain started obsessing over how I could get it. Sell my first born, sell some stock, sell my camera. Well, I did two out of those three and now own the amazing D300. This camera is leagues above my other one. Technology has come so far. I need to spend a lot of quality time with it and learn all the ins and outs.
This morning I did just that. I took Preston and Paige out to some wheat fields just West of us for a photo shoot. Preston wasn't fond of the sticky, poky things, so it didn't last long. Still, I got some pretty cute shots.
After the field, we headed over to the Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District. Great place for photos and best of all-it's free! We walked all around. The kids liked the stepping stones. I got Paige to sit in front of this rose bush for this picture. I am loving the new camera. I had a few glitches that I have to figure out. I look forward to spending lots of quality time with it! Preston was ready to go to receive the promised bribe- lunch at McDonald's complete with a Kungfu Panda happy meal toy.

Oh I love it!!!!! I got my camera out today for a few minutes and I just loved holding it again... I need to get together soon.... You still amaze me with your talent!!!
WOWZA!! That's an awesome camera. Your kids are adorable, by the way.
Wow. Wow. Great work. How fun. I can't wait to just hold your precious camera. I'll have to try those wheat fields-awesome!
Do you still want to do the photoshop class? I think a friend and I are going to sign up for the July 9 class. Let me know.
I'm so jealous! Those pictures are just gorgeous. I think once I have kids I'm gonna have to invest in a nicer camera--though I don't think I'm skilled enough for this one you just got!
