Playing With My New Camera

Well after much whining on my part and research on Bryan's part...  I (we) got a new digital camera.  It's new, but an older model that has been getting rave reviews online - Canon EOS Rebel XS (or 1000D, depending on what site you read).  It's our first DSLR and I have a lot to learn but love it so far (I've had it for 2 days).  It's pretty slick and hopefully won't be too hard to learn (I want to get off the pre-programmed settings).  But I think I need a zoom... :-(  Maybe Bryan will forget this is supposed to be for my birthday and I can ask for it in September.  haha

Here's a few random shots from today as the sky darkened and the winds blew.  Nothing fancy, artistic or particularly good but...
