My husband gave me a guide by Darrell Young that looks quite good too. <br /><br />Kay = I have a Nikon D90 with a 18-200 mm Nikkor lens. It was a pretty major purchase for me but oh! I've been happy with it! I did a fair amount of research -- used a friend's D80, listened to what Merisi (see above) had to say and after several months of dithering, bit the bullet and slammed plastic.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-34157837972101289292010-04-16T18:49:37.765-04:002010-04-16T18:49:37.765-04:00We are of a like mind today Vicki.

My tulips have lost their petals too but they were gorgeous while they lasted and, in pots, they lasted nearly two weeks indoors and made a nice splash of yellow on the Easter table.<br />Blessings, StarStella Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699491230987143490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-71409165327033197122010-04-16T18:47:04.132-04:002010-04-16T18:47:04.132-04:00All gone!

I'll have to post it eventually.<br /> I've been staying away as much as possible from the computer, trying to do late spring cleaning and finish some poems, so it's good to come back for a visit.Kathryn Stripling Byerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867152753841610044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-56881875977883306442010-04-16T12:03:29.881-04:002010-04-16T12:03:29.881-04:00Roses are still a long way off here,

Then again, with sunshine and warmer temperatures now, this weeks spring rains may just give them the necessary jolt. ;-)<br /><br />--<br /><br />O/T<br />I am almost through with my Ken Rockwell user's guide (supplemented by a field guide by DD Busch my daughter brought back from her US visit). It is as if I got a whole new camera! You do format your SD card each time you use it, do you? (Sigh, I know, I am preaching .... too much knowledge ... *giggles*). <br /><br />Looking at your photos, you must be so pleased with your camera. I am so glad you have now the tool to show your artistic talent to the fullest (do I see a photo book in your future?).Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-91058356436392683532010-04-16T11:13:34.721-04:002010-04-16T11:13:34.721-04:00Ah, sweet mystery of life!Ah, sweet mystery of life!Catalysthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03804837416104556928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-50616526999051464882010-04-16T10:00:01.818-04:002010-04-16T10:00:01.818-04:00Our weather has been so warm that the tulips have ...Our weather has been so warm that the tulips have been looking tired by their second day.
