learning about my camera

There's nothing really noteworthy about these pictures.  Some are very similar to ones I've taken before.  I just wanted folks to see that I am experimenting with something beyond point-and-shoot. 

Having some extra time this afternoon, I set off to the cabin with my canine companions, with the new camera and the Camera User Guide in hand.  I'm learning what some of the various settings and modes are for, although remembering them is not easy.  I finally figured out how to delete individual pictures in the camera.  I never once tried to do that on my old digital camera.

It's fun to learn new things.  Now if only I can remember them.

Enjoyed your photos.  You are doing well with it.  Love the close up pics.  That's a great camera.  Love the self shot.  Cute.
That feature is handy.
Take care.
Oh, and your sky looks so blue compared to our dark tropical day.

You ROCK Mo!!  Great pictures. I especially like the self portrait in the lounge chair....good job !! I have a little tripod for my camera...it sit on a table or shelf or anything flat that I can find to 'perch' it on. Works great...got it at Wal Mart for $3.97 Keep up the practice...you are taking some great shots girl !  Nance
P.S.  Where is the setting for distant shots ?  LOL....I've never used that .
