That's me. Remember the Olympus camera I got last month, the one I got instead of the Canon?
Last Monday, my Canon 40D was delivered. I got it on eBay, it came with some lenses and other stuff. I got it from the same seller who sold me my Canon Powershot Pro1.
I absolutely LOVE this camera (I’d probably love it even more if my thumb was normal). I ordered a couple of more lenses from eBay, got the Macro lens yesterday, still waiting on the zoom lens. The response time of this camera is phenomenal. Not at all like the other digitals I’ve had where there’s a lag time between hitting the button to take the picture and the picture being taken.
Here are a couple of pictures I’ve taken with it, there are more over on the photo album site, both in the Pets and Miscellaneous (yard) sections (check the EXIF information for the camera that took the photograph).

Ah, the part of my father that was passed on to me. The love of photography. One of the things I found during the cleanup at mom’s was his embosser for his little photography company. I kept it, it’s right here on my desk. I might use it in his memory.
Now, if my thumb would just feel better.
