I’ve been looking for old cameras for photography props. We were out antiquing and found this old Brownie Hawkeye camera. Cute, huh? Well, I find one for first for $23…and I was going to get it…then SuperGuy find this one for $10 !! He wins!! I put my find back and we bought his. Well, it’s not his camera, it’s mine…but you know what I mean. Don’t you?

Now, why it’s sitting out in among the tomatoes, I’m not sure. But the light was really pretty there.

SuperGuy, in his manly male way…immediately sat down and tried to figure out how it works… :mad2:

Men. Gotta love ’em.

Rewarding Bad Behavior

by Kay~Kacey on 5/18/2008

Nothing like rewarding bad behavior. So, as you know, I’ve been a real baby this week. Whining on and on about missing The Geeky One’s graduation. So what does SuperGuy do? He rewards my behavior. 😆 Good thing his parenting skills are better than his husbanding skills, or I’d be spoiled rotten 😉

I love this guy. :love: Today, on the very first day of the Canon Spring Rebates, we’re going out to buy me a new camera. A Canon 40D. Really, call me spoiled now, I can take it.

I love him doubly much. 😉

So, I think it has something to do with the fact he never gets to use the camera, it’s always in my hands, but whatever. I won’t look a gift horse in the mouth. You know? Besides, we like to do stuff together, and it will be fun to go on photo shoots with SuperGuy. I think he’s jealous of the photo shoots that The Photography One and I go on. Anyway, I’m a happy woman, and I’m considering being a whiny baby more often :rofl: Be back tomorrow with pics from my new camera!! Yay!

In the mean time, which black and white conversion do you like better? (you knew I’d have a reason for posting the same picture twice, didn’t you??) The first one is called the gradient method, the second one is the lab color method. Though I think both are a tad dark. Problem with using my very bright iMac to convert to black and white.
