light and shadows
on monday i received my awesome "mother of one-year-old-twins" present - a nikon d40x digital slr! wow, what a difference a camera can make! i've only been able to futz around with it a few times with all the activity going on here (grandmas in town, etc). but i can already tell i'm going to have A LOT of fun with this camera, especially when i get the right lens. right now i'm using the "kit" lens, which is a zoom. it's lightweight and actually does pretty well, but has a very small maximum aperture. so i'm crossing my fingers for a sigma 30mm fixed lens for valentines day! the sigma is fairly affordable and has gotten good reviews.

Oooh! New camera?? Oooh!!! Beautiful.
Oh! I'm so jealous. Those pictures are amazing!
Yay for Abel!
You twin parents and your cameras! Those are amazing photos! I just wish I knew the language you are speaking! Case in point: Aperature???
Congratulations on a great first year!
yay, tracey! the pictures are great and i look forward to seeing more. we have decided on the canon XTi and a fixed 50mm lens, we tried it sunday and our test shots were awesome. tim and i have been pretty into film photography for awhile so shooting is going to be awesome when we can change from p&s. work those shots, your boys are beautiful (as boys can be...cute does not cut it at this age).
What a perfect "eye" you have behind that camera...Tracey, you are truly a gifted photographer and one day I can see you earning a living, generating income - following your passion for photography!...Of course, you have two phenomenal subjects in my Abie and Oz-man!!...I miss you all!
