Got a new toy today

My old camera has been acting up for the past year or so, ever since I made the mistake to check it during an transatlantic flight.

After over a year with basically no DSLR, and a year since I photographed people, I bit the bullet today and bought a new camera. I am glad I did, I missed taking photos.

My wife was kind enough to allow me to practice on her.



And a more faded look on this one, as per her request.

Congrats on your new toy and great results Chip, but I think Mrs. Chip would look as beautiful if you shot her with this:

You take incredible photos. The colors are beautiful in the first photo of your wife, the colors in her hair and eyes really pop. That's the kind of detail a real good camera can capture.
