Still Pond Photography's photostream |
Just an amateur photographer....I like to take picture of the things that are special to me...like my kids, my home, my garden...
I shoot with a Canon Xti.
I just use the plain old kit lens (18mm-55mm)
I recently added a 50mm 1.8 EF lens and I like it!
Sometimes I use an old manual Sigma Zoom (I have to hold it on because it won't fit)
I also love my little Argoflex Seventy-five
If I am in a pinch, I have a Nikon Coolpix!
When I edit, I use Photoshop Elements 6 and Lightroom.
I administer the no flower challenge group

"Mattie is a wonderful photographer. Her pictures seem to drag the eye into them. Some her pictures have a very country "home" feeling to them. I always look forward to what she will post next! Thank you for being a great Flickr friend!
