We got a really cool camera yesterday. It is a Nikon D40 digital. We have two lenses. A basic lens and a telephoto one. It takes some really great pictures. Last night we were experimenting with it using Rocky as our subject. HA HA. Good luck using a dog that sleeps for a living as your subject. He barely opened his eyes the whole time we were taking pictures. Silly dog. This morning as I was driving to work, I wished that I had brought the camera with me because there were so many amazing shots that I could have taken. I was driving about 7:30 down Rte. 11. It snowed a couple of inches last night, so the morning light was illuminating each individual branch and it was almost a surreal scene. I was paying more attention to the nature around me than the road. The sun was coming up as I was driving towards the east and the colors were roses, pinks, magenta, orange and varying colors along that spectrum. There was this spot of branches lower to the ground that allowed only a small patch of light through it and I wished that I could have captured it. Maybe another day.
