Doesn’t the sight of a postman (delivery person) heading towards your door with a parcel make you heart beat that little bit faster with excitement? Even more so when you’ve a good idea what is coming and your awaiting eagerly? Well it does for me anyway 
Wednesday saw the arrival of my lovely new camera, a Canon 50D and two lenses, one of which is a macro that this fabulous blog recommended in a fabulous photography hints & tips post.
I must also say thank you to the lovely people (Dan in particular) over at Talk Photography, a forum I’ve joined recently in the hope that with a bit of gentle guidance and support my photography skills might improve dramatically. I’ve only been a member there around a week and already they’ve given me loads of top quality advice and have been incredibly patient and helpful towards this novice photographer.
Hopefully you’ll all be noticing a difference in quality very soon

Rosa it won’t be long until there are many pics to be seen
Happy Cook I had a point and shoot camera for years before I even considered a dSLR; so glad I did though.
Brenda I’m having so much fun with ‘my friend’, and have even bought some more lenses already. Plenty of pics on the way soon.

I’m glad I’m not the only grown woman that still gets excited waiting for the postman!
I must admit you’re very brave buying a new camera, I’d love one but haven’t a clue where to start! It does look very posh though
Look forward to seeing your pictures xxx

Very nice hardware. The macro lens really allows you to make mouthwatering pictures.
Good luck with the new gear.
