@cotton4me  Now, you must be a professional - very nice, indeed!  Thanks for sharing!

@tends2dogs  You're very kind to say that.  I only started a few years ago after I retired. It's been trial and error for sure, a lot more misses than hits.  However, I feel like I've found my passion so I keep plugging along.

Beautiful pictures, everyone.

@cotton4me I am in the market for a new camera and don't know much about them. Would you be willing to share the make and model of yours?

I don’t know much about cameras either so I use a point and shoot.  I wanted something compact and easy to carry on walks.  I also wanted good zoom to photograph wildlife.  I’m using a Sony HX90V compact camera, but the Sony HX80 has all the same features, except GPS, so it’s a little cheaper.  I don’t use the GPS feature but it might be important to some people.

Thanks @Miranda1550.  We are a bit limited on topics to post about so I thought what the heck, let's look at pictures.

Cottonball - Thank you so much for the information.  I am also retired and enjoy picture taking.  I stick to a point and shoot for the same reasons you do - it's easier to always have with me on walks and for when I'm out and about and a photo opportunity comes up when I'm not expecting it.  I will definately check out your camera.  Again, thank you!

@tends2dogs

Forgive me, I realize now I may have hijacked your thread and I apologize.  This is a great thread and it's so nice seeing everyone's pictures.  Thanks for starting it!
