Peter and I pooled our allowances for a few months to purchase a new camera. I can’t even tell you what all of the features on the camera are because I am quite clueless. I know it is made by Canon. It really is Peter’s new toy. The first day it came he was out at night taking some pictures (it just happened to be the evening of a rocket launch). Here are some of the first pictures from our new camera:

Here’s the rocket launch (Peter had some fun with photo software after taking the picture)

This is the moon.

This is the smelly dog (but you must agree that it is a very good picture of the smelly dog).

Now I just need to work up the courage to figure the camera out and not be intimidated by it! I am so used to my point-and-click version that takes crappy pictures.
