New Camera

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!  After much deliberation, I finally picked up a new camera.  I'm so very excited.  I got the Canon Poweshot  SX20IS this afternoon at Best Buy and just had to try it out immediately.  Just a couple of close ups of my eyes, excuse the far from perfect makep- this was after a full work day and some time out in the rain.  I just used the auto setting for these shots as I have so much to learn about this camera.  I have a feeling I will be on a posting spree for a while!  Click below if you are interested in reading more detail about the camera :)

My new Camera


On my eyes I used a few colors from a MAC Holiday Palette... think its the royal assets palette :)





What do you all think of the photo quality?  I think its pretty great, I didn't realize I needed to pluck my brows till I saw these pics ;)

  2. These images are so sharp and precise! Makes me want a new camera too, 7.1 pixels sounds disastrous at this stage!
    Love the makeup too, BTW :)

  4. OMG, you just had it today and the pics are quite amazing ...When you will practise, what's it gonna be ???
    I must admit I am a lazy photographer : I always use the macro setting and clic clac...And I am often disapointed by the way the colors look ;-(

    Have fun with your new toy !

  11. Thanks Blix, I was almost talked into a sony by the extremely knowledgeable sales rep at best buy... but stuck with my gut on the canon. I'm quite happy with it. :)
