Can you tell I got a new camera?

I got a new camera on Tuesday, a FujiFilm T190, 14 megapixels, 10x optical zoom. Definitely not a professional camera, but way better than my last camera, and I’ve been having a lot of fun using it the past couple of days.

This little guy was hanging out in my boyfriend's backyard.

This camera has a much better flower setting than my old one.

I love how much the colors on this marigold pop, and how crisp the petals look.

I was so happy with the way it focused perfectly on the butterfly flower!

I'm not sure what kind of flowers these are, but they photographed well.

I seem to be drawn to the oranges and yellows.

The poor flowers need rain.

I was excited when I saw this iridescent beetle on such a pretty flower.
