Canon 5D Mark ii

I was reading an article that filled me with pride about my choice of cameras.

I knew, long before now, that the Canon 5D Mark ii was a great camera. When it came out in 2008 I couldn't wait to get it. I was the owner, at that time, of a 20D and using a 5D at school. I was almost done with school and wanted to make sure I had something that was a good quality and reliable. I have loved using my 5D Mark ii for the last 16 months because quite honestly the camera kicks ass!

Today I read the article, which started this whole posting off, that the season finale for House was recorded just on the 5D Mark ii. What a great statement about a great camera!

When I am out searching for flowers there are so many things that I think about when picking them out. I think about the colors that are available and remember what I photographed last, texture, the way that the flower opens itself up.

Since I brought up color - there are so many beautiful shades and yet I seem to draw to some of the same ones over and over. Green is my favorite color but not the typical color of flowers. The other day my husband and I were watching an episode of Friends, season 9, where Ross and Rachel were in their apartment and there was a vase full of green goddess calla lilies as well as another vase of calla lilies. I had to go back and search through my green goddess calla lilies images and worked this one up.

I also updated my etsy shop with a few of the smaller images of mine. All of these images are on photographic paper and in an edition of 200. I will be adding more soon so check back for updates. http://www.etsy.com/shop/AnnaChipman
