My dearest readers,
This is my 111th consecutive post, and I realized yesterday that I don’t want to be posting on Sundays anymore. So I hope you will still visit me if I stick to six days a week instead of seven.
And ValleyGirl, you asked about what lens I used to take those bird pictures:
Last November when I decided to start a blog, I tried to get the best camera and lens for wildlife photography. After doing some research, I bought second-hand equipment on Ebay: a Canon EOS 10D camera, and a Canon Zoom lens EF 70-300mm 1:4 - 5.6 IS USM. The Canon EOS 10D increases the effect of the zoom lens, and the lens itself has an image stabilizer so you don’t need a tripod. When you consider my lack of background or experience in photography, it’s obvious that I’m using stellar equipment. Plus I Photoshop everything–I started using Photoshop Elements, which came with my PC, and got the full Photoshop program about six weeks ago. Ah, technology.
I hope you have a lovely Sunday,
Alice


















Enjoy your Sundays (and I think we’d all understand if you took Saturdays too), but it will just make Monday’s postings even more fun to read! Enjoy and Happy Weekends.
Don’t blame you.. and I really enjoy your blog btw.
Thanks for the info!! Wow, 111 CONSECUTIVE posts?! No wonder you feel like you need a break! Lots of bloggers I visit don’t post on Sundays ~ many not at all on the weekends ~ so I’m pretty sure no one will mind if you follow suit. Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
Blog when ever you feel like it. It’s your blog to do as you choose. I’ll still stop in.
I enjoy your Sunday blogging but understand why you might like to keep the Sabbath … a day or rest, even for bloggers.
It is so enjoyable to have a window into your life and environment that most of us will be satisfied with only six posts a week.
I really enjoy your photos and am considering upgrading my camera and getting photoshop so I can replicate your success. Spring is finally creeping into Iowa, the daffodils at the edge of the woods started blooming yesterday. It won’t be long until the iris and hostas fulfill their promise.
Enjoy your Sundays as much as we enjoy visiting Beside the Stream.
