January Eagle Hunt

Something I want to try to do more this year is to post more short and simple posts with photos.  This Christmas, Sarah got me a new Canon DSLR, which I love using.  But, along with taking pictures, I want to post some of my favorites.  So, today and yesterday, I went out in search of eagles, as they seem to be super active this time of year.  Below are a few of my shots from my eagle hunt.  I am just beginning to learn how to use the camera and need to get used to adjusting the shutter speed and aperture depending on what I'm shooting and in what light conditions. 

Using Picasa

So, I recently downloaded Picasa and have been experimenting with what you can do with it.  Among other things, you can edit, enhance, and change photos.  You can also make slide shows/movies.  Below is an example of a couple things I put together, including a video slide show from our trip to Mexico.
