Woo hoo!

Excuse the excitement.  Santa has been early and left me my new camera, my Canon 7D and I LOVE IT!  It is seriously impressive and the cats and Ben have already had their patience severely tried by me shoving it in their faces and taking their pictures.  I also took David's when he was asleep but he refused to allow me to post it.  So what I want to know is now I've got this to play with, who's going to cook Christmas dinner?  Beans on toast anyone?  :O)))

Posky.  His photo was the first one taken as any new camera

has to be first given The Blessing of the Grey Cat if it

is to take successful pictures.  He's beginning to get

a little vexed with me here.

These images are seriously grainy because I bumped up the settings

to the highest ISO (I think it's 6400) to try it out, and also because the

light was rather dim and I didn't want to use the on-camera flash.

  Anyway, I still like them, and I love that you can 

see my reflection in Mrs Pod's eye!

Pepper - who was very co-operative and rolled about with her

paws in the air in a winsome manner... 

Charlie - 'You point that thing at me one more time

and I bite your knee-cap, capiche?'

Happy Bunny with new camera - image flipped

so it says Canon and not nonaC or something similar.

As I'm now off to work and then meeting Cath for coffee, I expect there'll be quite a few photos taken today, probably of people shoving their hands in front of the lens and telling me to 'GO AWAY!'.  More later...
