The horizon is off in the first one.
Wow.
I've been considering the SX10 for a while now, but I've been debating whether or not to go right into DSLRs, since if I get one camera, I won't have enough money to get another for quite some time.
These are definitely some impressive shots.
Have you been having any trouble with the auto-focus? That's also a worry of mine for close-ups.
Ahhh - I love the squirrel picture! The rose is very appealing too. The only thing on the rose picture I would change is the thing off to the right - I think it is a lantern. It doesn't add anything to the pic & is a bit distracting from the beauty of the rose. If you have photoshop I would crop out the cabel in the sign photo. Also either straighten it or tilt it even more. As is, is not terribly exciting. As for the beach pic - the first thing I notice are the colors. Good job. Again, its slightly tilted - your beach goes up hill. I know you can't always control these things, but the picture would be so much better without the trash cans & beach sign.
Overall - enjoyable.
Donna, you could get and learn Gimp for free in the meantime. Tutorials are all over the intertubes.

Everything about this camera I just love. Coming from an A630 and shooting in just the Auto/Mode for almost three years is a challenge for me with the SX10 IS. I have been studying the manual and exploring some of the settings out of Auto! It seems to focus incredibly. I can 20X zoom and get an nice crisp shot! It took me 6 months of research, reading all over the internet and finally deciding this camera had everything I wanted and more. The reg. batteries (which was what I also wanted) should last 6 months if you get the right ones. They are Energizer Lithium (silver ones)(number on the batteries is 2021) They are 10 bucks for a 4 pack. I buy two packs at a time so I have them for the year. Amazon has the best price on the camera right now...no tax, free shipping! Again, auto-focus works great!
