<\/a><\/p>\nYou would think that would be enough, but when some of those dishes get used as serving dishes or aren\u2019t all clean, it\u2019s not always enough for company.<\/p>\n
Thanks to the generosity of my parents, we now have enough dishes for 12.<\/p>\n
Before, we only had 1 camera.<\/p>\n Since Brian and I wanted to buy ourselves a Christmas present, we now have 2 cameras.<\/p>\n Before, my photos could only be so good. After the new camera, the quality is much improved. I took both these photos on auto, with no flash. I didn\u2019t do any other tweaking and I took one right after the other. The old camera is on the left, the new on the right. Even without knowing what I was doing, I\u2019m impressed with the improvement (which is increasingly apparent when you enlarge the photos, which you can do by clicking). I can\u2019t wait to learn how to use it properly, which I suspect is going to take a while. If anyone has any good advice, I\u2019ll take it!<\/p>\n The new camera also takes much better photos of our Christmas tree, both with a flash:<\/p>\n and without a flash:<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
