Lots of News

I haven't blogged for nearly two weeks and I am missing it.  I have so much news to tell and all of it makes me feel so very grateful.

The sale of our other house finally came through and I was spoilt by Logan for our anniversary last week.  One of my biggest dreams has been to get a DSLR camera and Logan bought me a Nikon D3100 with three lenses.  I have always known that a camera doesn't make a photographer and I realise that I have a lot to learn in this department.



My laptop has been dying a slow death and this week it gave up.  Luckily Logan also organised a new laptop for me - all the way from America.  It is beautiful.

We have had anniversary celebrations, Orin's 4th birthday, planning our first proper holiday in 4 years, Aidan changing schools.  I will try touch on all of these things in later posts.

Here are a few of my photos with the new camera.  I took 671 photos in the first 5 days, practicing to shoot in Manual.  Don't worry I won't post 671 here :)

  1. Ruby that's wonderful! I agree that a good camera doesn't make a good photographer that's why I don't bother.
    But you're a naturally great photographer and the camera is a helpful tool.
