I've decided the one thing I don't like about this picture was the fact that I couldn't fit ALL My cute little critters into the frame. Bill liked a close crop so I had to compromise and only show a handful of My friends.

I've discovered more or less the same thing, Wanda..and now collect..camera gear..fishing gear..*grin*..haven't found a stuffed animal I've grown that attached to yet. Keep chasing the light..both of you!

Coach John,

My passion for cute, adorable stuffed Moose has developed over the past 2 1/2 years. I suppose it started when My daughter got married and moved away and I redecorated her room. I selected a "Lodge" motif because I love that outdoorsy feel. Of course I needed a cute little decoration for the bed so I bought a bear and a moose. With time, and our frequent trips to Yellowstone National Park, I became very fond of Moose. I won't buy just any Moose either. It has to have personality!(grin)These adorable stuffed animals are the ONE thing that make Me stray from My minimalist attitude. I don't normally collect "things" anymore. I did away with that habit years ago when I learned that "things" just collect dust. (laffin)

That says a lot about how good Canon cameras are. I still get great results with the D30. I still love to look through the lens of a SLR. The electronic viewfinders on the "point and shoot" leave a lot to be desired.

Yeah...I got lazy. The 20D has the 400mm/5.6L mounted to it. Really either camera is great; so, I tend to use what ever has the lens I want mounted or I just grab what ever is closer.

You have been using your 10D the past several days. Anything happened to you new camera?

I LOVE it when one of the photos peels back another layer of Wanda's personality. Wanda...what brought you to such an interest in moose? Good portrait..and it becomes more and more evident why Bill has commented more than once about your eyes.

Wow! I love what that 10D can do! Well ok, a pat on the back goes out to the photographer too... :-)

No one will notice the moose with Wanda's eyes stealing the shot. Nice portrait all around.
