More Reflections, More Playing!

I couldn't have entered a photo challenge at a better time; this is doing wonders for learning my new camera. The girls and I woke up this morning at went to one of my very, very favorite parks. They were able to feed the ducks, geese, and squirrels while I played with the D80. The sun was torture, so I boosted the colors in the camera with the "vivid" and "more vivid" features, as not to wash out the pictures. I learned that this does the exact same thing that a polarizer does. Pretty cool. Not so cool for skin tones though. Oh well, I will get there...someday....when I get the D300!!!!! Oh yeah, and I WILL be buying a new lens; this 18-55 is just not making the cut!!!!! Remember, Wendy, what they don't know won't kill them!!! LOL!!!!!! Poor, poor husbands......
