Cool Pix

We've had our old faithful Sony Cybershot for alotta years ~ takes super photos, but a few months ago I noticed the battery door refused to close completely.  

 
Even more notably (and costly), it began zapping batteries after only a few uses.  But I was making do.



Last month I turned 50something, and was elated when Mr. T surprised me with a camera for my birthday! 

This is the Nikon CoolPix L810, 26x zoom.

I love that it's blue!  And also easily held, thanks to the bulky battery compartment.  

Enjoy a reminisce with the music of my youth, while viewing these photos shot with my Nikon:

I named this one "Cardinal Cyn".

See him eating!?  The Carolina Chickadee with his cute little black cap.
I didn't know we had this one (@right), Purple Finch.

Come back tomorrow ~ I'll have a finished quilt top to show you!

  1. I found a new camera when I was just window shopping - now after seeing your incredible photos I really want one. And yes, I noticed the seed in the bird beak right away. (See that camera is the best!)
