So beautiful, calming and serene. So glad I found you. Your post about the wide angle lens was fascinating.

Thanks so much for your generosity - information we can all use!<br /><br />Now - I have to really get to work making my house extra neat.

Great way to 'try them out' if you will. Also when he videos weddings, he will rent the very expensive tools like a steady cam and things like that. Huge budget saver!<br /> <br /> Looks like you are having a great time with your new camera.<br /><br />Janet xox<br />http://theemptynest-janet.blogspot.com/Janet Metzger, Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06004040279820041203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-41253664947486432032012-01-04T22:59:51.106-05:002012-01-04T22:59:51.106-05:00loves me my wide angle!!

Neat idea!

The best part about it was the attachment that came with it that allowed me to take ever closer, close ups. A macro lens. It's fun to see what you are doing as you go along.
