In the garden today...



Poppies (well, almost), geraniums, daisies and honeysuckle.

Lovely!

What camera do you use (if you don't mind my asking)? The closeups are gorgeous. I've got a snapshot digital camera, but am thinking of upgrading - since I never use my good (film) camera anymore.

The camera is actually quite old (by digital standards, anyway!). It's a Nikon Coolpix 885 that DH bought in Japan on a business trip. He did his homework before he bought, and it was quite a good model at the time, but it's starting to seem a bit creaky now. It takes good pics, but it's not very fast at taking or at processing the shots.

DH has a share bonus coming in next month, so we're thinking of blowing it on a digital SLR so that we can play with different lenses again :-)

Ah yes, technology outdates *so* fast now! Thanks for reminding me of SLRs - that's really how I'd like to go anyway. I miss some things about the 'old days' of film - multiple lenses and no parallax error.... *dreams happily*
