New Camera!!!

You can't stop me now... I've just given up on my increasingly tempermental Canon A70, and have bought a Canon S3. Ha. All the better to photograph the autumn, which is dancing its way in with cool crisp evenings, leaf-scented winds, and rich oranges and bronzes.
Beware my trigger-finger. :--)

Barbara Sunday, my highschool art teacher, used to encourage us to draw the "naughty bits" of the flowers, as she called them. I still think of that every time I photograph or paint them. So here are the nasturtium's naughty bits.
