I’m considering the upgrade, so if you’ve done it yourself please tell me what you think. :)

Here are some of my latest, I’m really loving the XSi (and dreaming of a 60D, one day…)

I met a little snail in the garden the other day. He looked cool, but the first photos I took didn’t have enough colour. I tried moving him for different backgrounds, but no matter where I put him the focal point was something else. The pictures were boring.

Then I saw this flower, and to my surprise the combination of the two worked really well. The flower pulls the eye in and then pushes it over to the little snail. Separately I don’t think the snail or flower would have made for great photos on this background, but they do make a great team. Check out the rest of the photos on my Flickr.
