this was what was in my box.... i splurged... i went for it.... the big D50! good for my work, right?? [part of my justification] i was lucky enough to get a zoom lens... so far so good. there are so many settings i can't get over my choices. and the clarity .... mmmmm.... i had a dream that i was using photos in my art... that someone saw the polaroids and wanted to have a show of them [yes, wishful thinking but isn't that what dreaming is for??] i've been taking more polaroids too! i think it's because i'm feeling so OUT of my studio that i want to be doing something where i'm looking. something creative. something where i'm searching.... 
the ranunculas are starting to open... so wishing for spring... although i have to say this insane weather we are having is entertaining... hail, rain, sun, wind, thunder, lightening... snow in san francisco?!?! all in random order.... drawings tomorrow!

and what is up with the weather - we had snow, then 72 degrees - its like mother nature is having an arguement with winter!

liesel... yeah... i was super happy w/ my canon, but the clarity w/ the D50... it's really striking! the lens does matter!!
mav... :) sure seems like you have it figured out!
shari... thanks....re: the polaroids too... means a lot!
