Lots of Scottish immigrants here about 120 years ago! :) <br /><br />And, I'm all for arty but I gotta get the workings down first before I can get arty! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02776482696203224923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30560632.post-8825919920358255712006-12-10T22:22:00.000-08:002006-12-10T22:22:00.000-08:00"Bonny Doon"...sound so very Scottish.
Pot roas..."Bonny Doon"...sound so very Scottish. <br /><br />Pot roast, Manhattans...sounds wonderful. <br /><br />And I think that you will find that controlling the flash will allow you to get arty...mine is the same way. When the flash is down, it allows available light to fill the shot and a lot of the time, that's all you need.<br />Have fun playing with it!Susan Gets Nativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00216170589750418861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30560632.post-57552734688171779412006-12-10T21:57:00.000-08:002006-12-10T21:57:00.000-08:00I'm pretty sure that our tree is a Noble Fir.

I love the way I can LOAD it with ornaments way into the interior and you can really see your ornaments. <br /><br />As for the camera. Again, I have to get familiar with it. I don't like to use flash unless I have to but I'm finding that I'm very used to the camera making that decision and flashing for me when it needs to. This one requires that you pop the flash up if you think you'll use it. So, I have to get used to that. I'm taking too many blurry pictures! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02776482696203224923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30560632.post-25255943884088650292006-12-10T19:15:00.000-08:002006-12-10T19:15:00.000-08:00yea, I don't much like using flash either.
Sounds...yea, I don't much like using flash either.<br /><br />Sounds like a busy day and I love your tree! Have a hard time finding ones like that here - do you know what type it is?LauraHinNJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08329387562570495570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30560632.post-66941970394657971652006-12-10T10:46:00.000-08:002006-12-10T10:46:00.000-08:00Ooh, sounds like a fabulous day, especially the Ma...Ooh, sounds like a fabulous day, especially the Manhattans. My grandmother's favorite drink, I have a soft spot in my heart for those.<br /><br />About the flash, what I've been finding with pix taking and all, is usually no flash is better anyway. I've been learning how to work this thing just by taking as many pictures as possible and looking at what I get. I'm sure I'm reinventing the wheel in that others have learned/know these things, but for me it helps to just do it myself. And no flash is often a much nicer picture. It is harder inside with people moving around, though...BEGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301965824694092800noreply@blogger.com
