I have a new toy.  It is called the Nikon D40.  Everything I have read so far says it is a great SLR camera for beginners who know nothing about photography.  Yeah, that would be me.   So, as I am wont to do when I am beginning from scratch, I am making my way through the Magic Lantern manual with the camera in my lap and exploring as I go along.  Including participating in the latest Shutter Sisters’ Superhero Photo Challenge on weather (see photo above).

It might be awhile until I get the hang of it all, but I am definitely enjoying the process.  Thanks to my sis (the former owner of the camera) for all her support so far — I am definitely running straight to you when I have questions!

Gone are the days when I feel limited by my point-and-shoot’s inability to take the photos I imagine.  Watch out 2009, here we (me and my D40) come!
