i mentioned before that i was able to upgrade to a dslr from a point-and-shoot. i'm learning every time i use it and have found a couple of podcasts (mainly knitting related) and some blog posts that have inspired me in my ability to take good pictures. i'll talk about those resources in a different post but i wanted to put some of the photos up for you all to see. these are all from our recent trip to Alabama a few weeks ago.

i've been focusing on shooting in aperture mode (Av on the Canon dslr) and learning how to adjust the aperture and let the camera work. i think it's a great way to get some great pictures.
