Crazy those are awesome photos. I love the way you captured her eyes and their color.
 
Here comes the "what a cute little boy squeal" in 3...2...1..


AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW How sweeeeeetttt! He is absolutely ppppreeecccious!

Can I have him? Please? :wub:


Seriously. He's beautiful.

Sure. I keep trying to sell him to the circus but they won't return my calls. :crazy:
 
What's your thoughts on a Nikon D90?
I'm looking at one.., and I need a lenses for sports actions shots with the kids..both indoor and outdoor

Hockey, Soccer, Gymanastics etc....
 
I think the D90 is overpriced for what it does. It's 12.8mp and only shoots 720p video. the canon eos T2i is a beast for around the same price. It's 18mp and will shoot 1080p. The Nikon does have a higher ISO capability, but canons are known to perform with less noise at comparable iso's. The key for you is going to buy a high quality zoom lens. the 70-200 4.0 IS L is the canon I would go with. It's a great lens that is pretty dang fast and works well with tough light conditions for around a grand. If you want to spend serious bucks you could get the 70-200 2.8L but dang, it's not cheap for someone photographing their kids.

I can attest to the T2i. I purchased it recently and have been really pleased. I am no expert by any means. I just enjoy shooting. The key is to shoot often. Get the biggest memory card you can buy and just experiment with the camera in all modes. Here is one I shot recently on vacation. I love this thread by the way, keep the pics coming.

Cards Fail, I wouldn't go higher than 4g even if your shooting RAW+JPEG

I should clarify. I wasn't suggesting that anyone should store all of their images on the card, just get a big enough one so you can shoot as much as you want each session. I use Lightroom to organize my photos on the mac and have been pleased with it so far.

ok, I'll agree with that. But you can get 800 jpeg images on a 4gb card. Lightroom is great, I suggest downloading totally rad actions. We use adobe bridge to organize.
 
The wife took this picture of our niece last week at the beach.

I have a Sony Alpha 330 with a Sony 18-55mm and a Tamron 28-200mm lens.

I took this pic last evening. Not sure how many here heard, but there were multiple tornadoes in southeast Oho, including a couple in Athens, where I am for college. I took this pic outside my dorm of a funnel cloud.

And here is an edited photo done by someone on a photography forum that really brings out the clouds and shape.

love the tiles and mixer pics.

So, I'm pretty sure I'll be buying a hasselblad next week. I'm pretty stoked.
