New toys...

POTD - Hands. Well, not really. But paws are close enough! Haha. I'm sorry, I can't help it... I'm obsessed with Chloe's cuteness. =)

I love this time of year... Christmas in June. My company pays partnership now so I decided that I needed some new toys. I got myself a sb600 speedlight, Tamron 28-75mm 2.8 and a Tamron 90mm 2.8 macro lens. Granted, I know nothing about macro... but I'd like to learn! CC is always welcome, especially macro advice because I really need it! Here's some of my first shots with the new toys...

My first shot with my speedlight and the Tamron 28-75. Keep in mind, this shot was taken at around 10:30pm in my house, which is usually too dark to take any photos even during the brightest time of the day. So I'm excited about it! I don't think I've ever posted her on my blog before... So meet, my parent's obese pug Angel!
And the monster. I guess it was after all the pup's bedtimes...
The Tamron 90mm. A flower bud...
