Photography and new camera

Bought a new Canon camera on Black Friday.   So the logical action was to get out there and use it as soon as possible.  Being the dead of winter, it is harder to get out and photograph, especially if you live in a place where the air hurts your face.  But I did go.  First I went to an indoor butterfly garden in Ames, Iowa.  The second place I drove to is called "The Ledges."  It is a fantastic place to see carved out rocks and large ledges filled with trees and walking paths.  Unfortunately it was closed when I got there.  This often happens when the area fills with water after a rain or if the roads are icy.  Sadly, I was forced to turn around, but I had the opportunity to photography the horses living around the area, and my favorite silo.

All in all, I don't think it was a bad day for photography.  I do however want to go and buy new lens for my new camera now.  A wide angle and a macro.  Mmmmm.....how delicious would that be?
