My wife has a Cessna 172. She got her instrument license last summer. It's an expensive hobby.

Nice color car. By the leaves I'm guessing a spotting from last summer, unless you are on vacation someplace warm.

I'm starting to get why DSLRs are so much better than my camera

It is amazing what all you can do with a DSLR, so is it time for you to get one?

About a year ago I was on the fence about getting a DSLR when I was getting a new camera. I thought having to purchase and change lenses would be a pain and the size of the DSLR vs what I was using, would I actually want to carry one around. I ended up getting the Nikon D60 and haven't looked back. I've bought several lenses and am still just amazed at what all it can do.

That's the main reason I haven't gotten one, and I won't until I get a job

I'm adding my mix to the table, these are all a little old but I like em

the mountain was St Lucia, the cut off road is Dominica. I thought some of you might get a kick out of the sign on the light pole haha. The puppy is my baby Dachshund I got in February. And a picture from the day I got my car and a rolling shot from a few weeks ago

Thanks. That is the Hard Rock Cafe in Nashville, TN with the Bell South (or is it AT&T) building in the background.

H2 Stretch at one of my best friend's weddings yesterday. My pictures of the actual wedding sucked

Again reminded of how badly I need a DSLR. My camera's actually worse than normal point and shoots for stuff like this because the flash takes 10 seconds to prepare while cheaper cameras can flash instantly

some tulips and lastly trying out some editing on an LP640 pic from Chicago

Hey Andrew, the picture of the tulips is very cool. I am actually a little surprised that you had that much control over the depth of field with a point and shoot. It came out great!

DSLRs are so essential for indoor events. You have so many options with hotshoe flashes, fast lenses and high ISO that you just can't get with a point and shoot. I am actually taking mine to a rehearsal dinner for pictures next weekend. It should be interesting because shooting pictures of people is not something I usually do.
