Courtesy of my wonderful Mother-In-Law I have an amazing new camera to take all my shots with. I already own a Minolta Maxxum 5 35mm SLR but find I don’t use it very often; there’s something about developing photo’s that turns me off. Plus I don’t have a great lens so I can’t really get into the nitty gritty. I end up taking all our shots with a 3 or 4 mega-pixel generic, but this is going to be fun. My new Nikon D70 Digital SLR is a 6.1 mega-pixel takin, 3008 x 2000 makin machine. The thing is feature rich and comes with a mind boggling instruction manual that’s going to take some time to weed through.

I’ve started playing with it and have uploaded the first set of shots of the kids and around our home here: http://mike250.com/gallery/v/year/2008/august/

Mum; thank you! This has renewed my energy to keep on taking and uploading photo’s. I haven’t been doing such a good job over the past year. I think that’ll change now.

Oh, there’s also some golfing shots with mates Markus and Riley; our last hurrah before Markus and Nina move home to Germany
