I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner but I have a really good camera at work that I need to learn how to use (this will be great for my review at the end of the year). It used to belong to our Graphic Designer and he left the company and they didn't replace him. I've been trying to learn Photoshop because I may be asked to do some basic things with it for some of our photos we use in our presentations. I asked my boss if I could take the camera home for awhile and learn how to use it. YAY...the answer was YES! I've been playing around with the camera at my desk today and took a picture of my new coffee mug I just bought at Marshall. $3.99 can't beat that! The camera is a Canon Rebel XT...and I'm loving it! This may spoil me and I may not want a crappy camera after this! I'm going to take some more pictures of my chandelier with this camera. I'll post them tomorrow.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI am Loving the cup! I collect cups and that is a really pretty one...the camera you are trying out takes a really clear picture! I look forward to seeing what else you capture with it.....

Well Cindy, I don't even know where to begin with the CONGRATULATIONS: chandelier up (and beautiful), the dimmer switch replacement, the steal of a deal on the pretty mug, or the camera delimma solved! I will say I was veeeeeery impressed you rewired the chandelier AND replaced the dimmer switch by yourself. (Look out Martha Stewart! LOL) You are one truly amazing woman!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful coffee mug, Cindy.
ReplyDeleteThat's the camera I'm considering. Hope to have a new one in the next couple of weeks.

Cindy glad your back! If this helps you have better photos we may not be able to take it lol...they were always great. Your cup is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to learn to use the camera for work. And you might just end up liking it so much that you buy one for yourself. I have two friends with this same camera and they LOVE it! Their pictures always turn out well.
ReplyDeleteYour chandelier does look beautiful...but after seeing that coffee cup, I want to see another shot of the chandelier! The little coffee cup looks fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteYeah! I'm glad you have a good camera to use.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see new pictures of your chandelier. Wow! You rewired it and put in a new dimmer switch.

Beautiful cup! I love the teacups and saucers at Marshall's!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see more pictures from your new camera. I'm looking for one myself...I've worn my out!
I love your coffee cup, it made me smile because I just took a picture of my favorit coffee cup.
ReplyDeleteThank-you for such a beautiful I enjoy reading it and looking at the beautiful things.

That is the most beautiful cup. i want one. You can find me at Daisy Bouquet. I have only been posting about a month. I like visiting with you.
ReplyDeleteWOW...that is one good camera...I never realized it could make that much difference (my daughter the photographer would cringe if she heard me say that)....Great picture of your pretty new cup...can't wait to see the new chandi pics...I thought the other ones were pretty good...so I'll be really happy to see new clearer ones from the new camera...hey...if the boss lets you use this to learn about work...shouldn't you be getting paid to learn, too?? Just an idea...well...I wouldn't want to push it...now...don't listen to me...I'll probably just get you in trouble.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your new post...
blessings...

Cindy, I asked Mr. Lisa for that same camera for Christmas!!! I have heard really great things about it! You are already a talented photographer! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteYour chandelier looks beautiful. I know you must really be enjoying it. You're doing great with the new camera right out of the box, too! Oh, I want to get back to Marshalls now just in case mine has that mug. It's a beauty!
ReplyDeleteNice picture! My camera is so inferior...lol. I collect odd and end cups as well so of course I really like this!
