New Camera! (Guess I had a good pout going on)
Oh ya! I am one happy camper and doing the Snoopy dance.
My wonderful hubby suprised me with a new camera this Monday past. A Canon Power Shot SX100-IS. Course it is going to take me a while to discover all its bells and whistles, so don't expect any fab pics just yet.
Comprehensive review here http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canonsx100is/ "The SX100 IS comes with a 8.0MP sensor, a 10x zoom, optical image stabilization and a comprehensive range of manual photographic controls"
Quite handily, EDM has a challenge right up the new camera alley! Every Day Matters Challenge # 164 draw a camera
And this is also going to double as EDM # 16 draw your favorite tool, as I nearly wept kittens when my last camera died.
So here is my new camera : ) (Reverse psychology or wishful thinking? Draw a blurry camera, get crisp clear photos! Time will tell.)

Every Day Matter Challenge # 161 the perfect smell
2008/03/26 Hmmm...I'm not sure if I'm done with this one yet. And I scrubbed too hard. Really it is overworked. But here it is, a perfect smell. Well, fresh out of the bath anyway!

Every Day Matters Challenge # 160 draw a trophy
Tough one! Tough one to find anyway. That kind of stuff is currently packed away in our house for one, and well, I personally don't have anything that warrants displaying . . . except for . . . my Karate belt. That counts, I believe. Orange belt is my highest level. But is has been awhile. Truth be told, I would have to start over.

Every Day Matters EDM Challenge # 159 draw your favorite kitchen tool
These EDM challenges are great for experimenting small scale. Here's EDM Challenge # 159 draw your favorite kitchen tool
Ok, I took liberties with this challenge. I think it was supposed to be draw your favorite "cooking" tool, which would of course be my super large George Foreman! (Blowing a kiss to my sister-in-law). But I just didn't feel like drawing a big square thing. So...the wine de-corker it is!! A kitchen must have. Seriously, if you don't have one of these then you have to slink off to the basement...or garage...for a screwdriver...then you get cork bits in the wine... not cool folks.
*gasp*. No. How dare you suggest? I did not draw this directly after using it, even thought it may look like it. I do not often drink and draw.
