And a shot of the east portion of the Grand Canyon:

Beautiful!
I'm about to order an Xsi...did you take these with the 10-22 lens?

Those are awesome! Man...I'm so close to a USAF base, I really need to make it out to a show.

Thank you Charlie, I had a lot of fun taking them. Ever since I got my camera, it's one of the subjects I've looked forward to the most. I just got back from seeing them again so I'll be posting a few more here later on. Had better lighting today so I hope they turn out better.

BTW, great shots from Antelope Canyon! Looks like a photographers dream .

Thank you desertfire. The shot from Antelope Canyon was with my 17-55mm and the Grand Canyon shot was actually my 70-200mm if I remember correctly. I needed a little range to get the rock outcrop into the foreground. The 17-55mm was great in Antelope Canyon...the wide aperture and image stabilization helped me get way more shots than I thought I would. Almost everyone else was lugging tripods or monopods with them.

That flower actually has those green dots on the rim of it's petals Matt? That is so CUTE !!!
And charliec, that second Antelope canyon shot is AB-so-LU-tely GORGIOUS !!!!! I am blown away by that one !!!! WOOOOH no I wanna go too !

Oh another one of these.

those Antelope canyon shots were without a tripod ? ! the 17-55IS is a good lens

I have far too much fun with this camera.

nice night concert pic - with the 55-250IS ?

From today's 5 mile (roundtrip) hike to the site where the show MASH was filmed at Malibu Creek State Park .. not much left to see, but the park rangers have recreated the signs pointing to different cities. The water lillies were shot at a nearby lake in the same park.

Hello everyone. I came here a while ago... maybe back in Feb/March while I was waiting on Dell to send me my camera! I got it in, and I didn't take it out for a while. But I am starting my 365 day project w/ my husband on August 1st, as well with a lot of other ladies in another forum I am apart of. I just wanted to share an image for critique, and I also wanted to know about which program do you use for editing? LR 2.3 or Photoshop (full version or elements?) or both? Right now all I have is LR 2.3. I am still very unfamiliar with it, but I am thinking I need elements or the full version of PS to go a long with it. What are your thoughts?

Ya. Strange combo but I did not have a low light lens to hand.

Self Portrait, I was just testing my speedlite here, I have no idea how to use it so much to learn.
