I have been wanting a new point and shoot camera for some time now. I have a really nice little olympus, but it is literally a point and shoot. There is nothing creative that you can do with the camera only after the picture is taken. That being said, as much as I love to think of my self as really creative and a photographer, I know that I am such an amateur when it comes to creating and taking creative photos. I now have 4 digital cameras and 1 film camera. When I bought my first SLR film camera, I decided to get a Canon Elan 2E. My husband was into Canon's and a friend of mine also recommended Canon's. I then moved on to a 7E, also film. Later I got a very cheap Canon that did me well, but it was sloooowwww! My husband bought me one of the first Canon Rebels SLR. I then went on to buy a 20D SLR. After My older son was born, I decided I needed a new point and shoot and bought the Olympus. 3 1/2 years later it is still going strong, but I wanted something that I could do more with the settings of the camera. This weekend I was at a wedding and was talking to a table mate that my husband had worked with and he recommended the Canon s95. The next day, I went out to the camera store with my husband and bought it. I really didn't want to spend the money, but I really liked the camera. We took the kids to the park and I played with the camera while they played at the park. The best part was that I actually used the manual setting and never once used the programmable settings that I had always found myself using. These are just a few of the pictures I've taken since yesterday!

Oh, and I played with taking black and white, sepia, and color photos too! I had lots of fun with my new toy and got to get some cute pictures of the kids! Now I just need to learn more about photography and take better pictures!
