All were taken on my new camera, a Canon Powershot A720 IS. Click on the photos below for the unobstructed version.

I think the biggest way my new camera has improved my picture taking has little to do with the camera itself. In researching cameras and, especially, reading the manual for my new Powershot, I have learned alot about photography in general, and playing with the manual and semi-manual settings has helped me understand how each affects the resulting image.Yeah, I might be the next Ansel Adams. We’ll see.


Can you help me identify this snake?
