First week with the Canon EOS Rebel T3i (600D), C&C Please

[Austin Greene]

Hey everyone,

Brand spankin' new here, so I figured I'd post up some photos (chronologically) from my first week with the new camera. Before for a number of years I was using a Sony Cybershot DSC-H50, a great camera, but I wanted to take the plunge into DSLR photography and interchangeable lenses. Unfortunately, its been very gloomy around here lighting wise, from the past week we only had one day of sunshine. All of the photos were taken with the kit 18-55 lens. Tell me what you think! The telephoto is coming soon, and wildlife photography is more of my area, so I'll post up plenty of photos once I give it a "shot"!


Regards,

Toga

P.S: I wish there was a way for you to see them full size...

Haha, yup! His father was full, and he is 90% wolf, 5% akita (curls his tail when he's happy), and 5% husky (some coloration characteristics, like his forehead). He's just as much a member of our family as I am, and an incredible animal to have around! Plus he's a sweetheart (from his mother, his dad was a bit touchy) and a great guard-dog. Needless to say, we tell people he meets that he is "just a husky," it takes down the anxiety level a few notches

Holy cow. I wouldn't have guessed wolf by looking at him, at least not without a body shot. I definitely see Akita. Good "first" pics. Keep shooting!
