Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.

HAhAHA, funny! I have taken many many photos before I get ONE that is good. A good camera does help. I usually use my Canon EOS 20 for most shots, my Blackberry is horrible at pictures. I do find that having the flash on does help capture the picture but you have to watch for the Lazer eye effect. Also, check your cameras settings, set it on the little runner guy if it has one. Dont set the ISO to high then it will wait to long for the light and the little four legged subject will be gone.

Chris, you can't tell the difference between your photos and mine, including the "invisible dog" shots! It's not us, though--it's the camera, it's the camera!! Yours probably has that stupid delay, too. A neighbor gave me his old but good camera, but there it sits: "Whatta ya mean I gotta read this 500 page manual first?"

You'll get some good, crisp shots--and then you'll celebrate...heavily. Even pros (Ansel Adams, too) admit that they may only get that one good shot after taking 100 photos.

I'm with ya on the blackberries being in pies!
Though I can only hope to become the person who my animals believe I am, the things that they have taught me have made me a better human being. ~~~Sharon~~~

ISO - International Organization of Standardization (I know...the acronym doesn't fit - because of translation). They set the standards for many things. Ever hear of ISO 9000 for manufacturing?

With photography it harkens back to the dark ages of using film in your camera ... GASP!!! The ISO set the standard for worlwide production of film so that it would be easier for everyone. So, it set the "speed" of the film.

Wikipedia has a decent article on film speed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_speed
