ORION THE HUNTER

This is my first night time picture of the stars with my 'new to me' Cannon Rebel DSLR camera with a 28-80mm lens. It is set at 15 sec elapsed shutter time with an ISO setting of 100. A million thanks to Mike P for the crash course in DSLR settings which made this picture possible. The pictures taken by myself on full auto mode did not turn out at all.

My battery died before I could get more shots. A new battery is on the way, so I'm hoping that the quality will improve with lots of practice.

TURN OF THE TIDE

These are some of my first pictures taken with my new Cannon Rebel DSLR camera.

This is the Saint John River at the Reversing Falls just above the bridge. The Tide is changing from high tide to low tide.
