Welcome, Paco!

Brought home a new camera tonight, a new Canon EOS 50D... oh. my. word.
He's beautiful.
I have dubbed him Paco.
After Pachelbel's Canon in D.
Get it?
He's gorgeous.
I love him already.
I'd marry him if I could.
His battery grip, extra battery, and 8GB memory card arrive tomorrow.
Sigh.
All I need is something interesting to take a photo of.

Congrats on your new baby!
My dog's name is PAco....too funny!
hooray for you - that is a beauty! it is so exciting to get a new camera - he's a big'un! love the name!
Lucky lucky you! Maybe if I hadn't been forced to replace our water heater last week I'd be able to have a new friend too. I guess I'll just enjoy yours vicariously. Enjoy!
Paco is GORGEOUS! Have fun taking pictures. :)
It's beautiful.
Love that you name your camera!!! Enjoy and congratulations on your new "baby"!
Seriously one of my favorite pieces of music is Pachebel's Canon in D. That makes me love your new camera even more than I already would have.
So.Cool.
Reminder to self: Thou shalt not covet.
Amen.
Hi!
Congrats on your new Canon!! Great name, Pachebel's Canon in D is one of the pieces of music I play with my recorder orchestra/band and I love it so very much!!
Have fun!
Oh sweet!! Congratulations!
Aaw, congratulations! I know the love, have the same to my Nikon :P
Hugs, Daniela
Congrats. Just create some more of your stunning creations and you'll have some models at hand ;)
Lucky girl...I'm drooling with envy!! Please keep us updated on everything that baby can do.
I LOVE your blog...and this entry is just another reason why! Not only are you super-extraordinarily creative, but you're sooooooo funny, too! I'm repeating Kristine's prayer, too. (I don't think it's helping!) Enjoy Paco! :)

Congrats on your new purchase. I, too, love your BLOG!!!! I wait every Monday and Friday for you MACs love them....How come you can get cards done in 4 minutes and it takes me forever!!!! That is my goal to start stamping faster.
Back to Pacho.....let's see some really great photos soon and tell us how he works...my husband just got me a digital and it is taking me forever to figure it out and it is nothing like Pacho that's for sure!
I also am repeating the prayer from Kristine!! Maybe instead I should just ask for forgiveness!! I love that he is a he and that he has a name -- I'm off to name my camera!
now that IS true love!!
congrats!!!
I just bought a super fast 50mm lens for my 40D and can't wait for it to come in the mail! Aren't new toys fun?
he does look like a beauty.....how about taking some more pictures of your stampin' space? I love to see how others keep their stuff rounded up.....mine gets all over the place!
Beautiful Kristina! :) Can't wait to see more pics with it.
I shall not want.

I walked down the aisle to that piece of music. :-) (Or, as my dad said, "Hey, that's Paco Bell... we need to walk slowly." What did he think, that we'd run for the border? ;-D)
Congrats on the new baby.

Awesome! Happy for you. That is one of my nusic favorites Pachelbel. I luv your videos. Have a great week. Can't wait for Fridays now.
Congrats on the 50D :) I've been playing with a 40D for about 6 months now... there are ALWAYS interesting things to take photos of... sometimes it's just a matter of perspective (and perhaps personal interest).
How cool!!
You and Paco should run away to the canyon and take some fall pictures before is snow again.. Maybe Gardner Villages and visit all the witches...
I was hoping to run into you today at SU I was visiting with Angie B. I got to play around in her room.. OH MY WORD! what a cool place that is!!! {heart thump} maybe she will have me back really soon.. Fingers crossed and I can say hi.. I got to hug Linda.. I haven't seen her sence convention. She won't be at Pam's Meeting this week-end either..
HAve fun with PACO!!
Hugs

Oh... I'm so jealous. I've wanted a good Digital SLR for years and still haven't gotten one. Your photos were always fantastic before getting this, can't wait to see them now!
What made you choose this camera? Just curious, since I haven't done my homework on digital SLR's (yet)?
Brycia
I just got this as a gift today!! I'm still learning how to use it as I've never taken a photography class before. Do you follow any good websites or blogs for this camera? I would love to take pictures that look as good as yours. =)
