Oh What a Beautiful Morning!

I finally got a chance to test drive my new D-300 today. I have to tell you I’m lovin it! I is extremly fast and I’m getting used to the controls. I took my kids and a friend to Westside Park today in hopes of getting some shots of the girls playing. I am really happy with the shots I took of them. I will post them tomorrow. As I was leaving the park I noticed that the Dogwoods are already starting to bloom. I just aimed up and shot these pictures. I used my 50mm 1.8 on these shots. There is no color enhancements at all. This is what it looked like SOTC (straight outta the camera). I love the colors!

    These pictures you took straight out of the camera makes me want to go out and buy a D300. Although, I don’t have the money at this point…this is my dream camera. Maybe the next version of the D80 will be similar to the D300 and be a lower price in which I can make an upgrade. We shall see.

    Great job and look forward to more of your work.

    Laurel,

    My D300 arrives on Tuesday! Unfortunately nothing is in bloom, and the skies are gray and dull where I live. I’ll have to read my manual and find other things to shoot! Nice photos.
