Kids are wonderful! Twenty seconds - exactly twenty seconds - separated the main photo from the smaller one. In the first, they are turned to each other - I wonder what they are giggling about. In the smaller photograph, they are ignoring each other. Click on the smaller pic to enlarge it.Taken yesterday afternoon in Menton with my new camera: a Pansonic Lumix DMC-FZ18, which is a 'bridge' camera or an 'ultra-zoom.
I'd like to dedicate this post to Chuckeroon of Richmond upon Thames Daily Photo.
Chuckeroon has 'held my hand' over the choice of camera, he has answered endless emails and is still answering them. I have much to learn. I thank you so much for your time and expertise, Chuckeroon.
Happy Easter everyone!
Well, good choice. Lumix is a nice camera with a fabulous lens. I have one, as you know, but mine is a different model.
ReplyDeleteI like your photo and look forward to your new year with your SZ 18.
A very nice photograph with your post today.
Easter greetings from Abraham Lincoln in Brookville, Ohio.
A couple of great shots with your new camera.
ReplyDeleteYou have made a good choice - the zoom range is massive; mine is 12x. Their image stabilization really works, which means you can take great shots hand held. Enjoy!
Reminds me of my brother and me annoyed with each other one moment, collaborators the next. Nice tribute to Chuckaroon ... thanks for sending me to his site. I, too, have a Panasonic Lumix (12X) and I adore it; enjoy yours.
ReplyDeletethank god the fete du citron is over. i am so sick of those festival pictures.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. I am currently debating myself about getting a new camera. I hate shopping because sales people are so annoying.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your new camera...
ReplyDeleteahhh to capture moments like these...an ultra zoom sounds like something needful.
ReplyDeleteeven though in the second picture they are concentrating on their sweets, their body language still says they are very comfortable & happy with each other's company.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots, Jilly! Send the camera to me, I need it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Great new camera and great photos! Happy Easter to you.
ReplyDeleteNice and amazing photos!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter as well!
Very nice photos, Jilly! Have fun with the new camera!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
That is a wonderful candid photo, Jilly. Even in the first shot they are close, one can see by their body language that they are comfortable together.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to have a new camera! And the photos are adorable.
ReplyDeletelovely photo...
ReplyDeleteThis is a very touching photo ...
ReplyDeleteAh !!! Children are ever great ! A really good photo taken with help of a good camera even if, I'm persuaded, the best "camera" is your eye able to catch the moment. Best compliment to Chuck, best compliment to Jilly and Happy Easter to both !
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new toy,Jilly! I see you've mastered it already - those are super shots!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to more...
Gail bought me the same camera, only in the UK it's known as a FZ18. It's silver, would have preferred it in black. I've not used it that much, but I did take all the photos in Dubai with it.
ReplyDeleteYou got a new camera! How exciting!?!?!
ReplyDeleteAwesome photo and observation on kids and their focus/attention span.
Typo! It IS the FZ18. I'll change it in the copy. Duh!
ReplyDeleteFantastic photo. I love my Canon, but am STARTING to think about the next one.....
