Florence - Yes, we are having a lot of fun with the new camera. It's one of those combination camcorders/cameras and my daughter has been make all kinds of "documentaries" and even a garden tour. Garden 2 Garden - I'm liking the color more and more myself. I remember last year I was a little worried the color would be too strong or too dark, but it seems to fit in very nicely with the other roses in my garden. Organic Garden - I'm sure your Pretty Jessica will start doing something soon. You'll love it once it starts performing. Mine are grafted, and although I'm usually very hesitant to buy a grafted rose in my climate it could possibly explain the difference. Labrea - I love the alyssum too. It's so easy and common, but you just can't beat it as a companion for roses (in my opinion). It blooms non stop from spring to hard freeze and always looks good. Krista - I agree, Austin has some wonderful pink roses. I purchased Eglantyne last year on your recommendation and I really love it too. It was just a tiny band last year, and it's in a bad spot completely shaded and crowded out by an encroaching "The Fairy" but it has given me several exquisite blooms this summer. Randy - I agree, the perfectly shaped blooms can't be beat. It's so old fashioned looking to me, yet blooms non stop. Okay, I'm starting to sound like a commercial for David Austin roses so I'll stop now. I usually do not cut my flowers for bouquets, but since there were so many I went ahead and cut five for the house. My daughter took this picture with her camera:

Looks like it will be super! Now you have to do the boring chore of reading the manual. I hope yours is written clearer than mine is. I do not understand why Canon can't get writers who can explain it to the ordinary user!

Thanks again everyone... Some of you I responded to in the other post...and some here.. C/angel..I know the cartoon character you mean..and I laughed because that was definitely the case here! jeanne..luvs...wish you were there...wish you were there!! Glad you liked it all.. Shee..thanks for the compliment...I've seen your pic..and I feel 'You' are the adorable one!! Punk...glad I didn't let you down. I know what you mean about buying it then think about it later...I try to do that..but this time around...I think I was so overwhelmed...I got 'Stupid' !! :( As far as putting it all away... I really had to work hard at it today...finding places to squeeze things in. I'll have to go back to rearrange and change where they went.. that's the hardest part...and it's getting harder. Gosh, I feel one day when I'm gone, they're gonna say.. This was one 'Sick' lady...with all these dishes!! jane

Comments (11)
I do it on all my cameras after I upload the pics to computer I check them out that they are on the computer and what they look lik then I go back to the drive where the camera is and delete all items then I right click on the drive and eject. Tht way it cleans up tht drive (read tht somewhere) I end up with n empty camera disk. some times I putthe disk in the computer sometimes I upload with a cord from computer to camera works the same both ways

You're a terrific photographer! I LOVED the photo of Flowergirl, esp. since I never used to like singles all that much. All are gorgeous. :0) Phyl

Being partial to yellow labs, I'm lovin' Rookie! Being partial to GREAT pics, I'm lovin' yours! Is your Canon the digital Rebel? I have one and love it but I'm too blonde to use it well! You certainly didn't have that problem! Brava!

Thanks again! Its just a Cannon Power Shot "point and shoot". Not anything as fancy or expensive as a Rebel.
I didn't adjust any of the optional settings other than the super macro. Good advertisement for Cannon! Not the photographer! But thanks anyway! Sure is fun!
