Playing with the camera

So I love taking pictures and while I am certainly no professional, I enjoy it. I don't aspire to be a fantastic photographer or start a side-business, rather just have fun with it. My dad and I bought the same camera a day a part and we have been emailing pictures back and forth. Here are a few of the pictures I've emailed to him. You can click on the images and see the detail.

The most recent is of a spider. And not just your ordinary garden variety.....I interrupted his evening meal. [note: I should have changed lenses, but the 55-200mm lens was in the car so I shot on the basic....really, really close. And I REALLY hate spiders.....]I monitor the tomato plants daily and one afternoon, I caught a stow-away sunning himself in the bush. He must have just jumped on the plant because I watched him turn colors....I don't know why I only have critter pics, but I am really going to try to get some pictures of deer when we head up to the cabin next. For now, I am certainly having fun!
