Canon EOS Rebel XS

I just recieved my new toy…I mean investment!  This is my first big investment into my new company, Next Mountain.  Even though the main impetus for buying a digital SLR is for design and photography, my main subjects will most likely be my family.  I mean come on!  Look at how photogenic they are!

I guess it’s not all bad.  I know the grandparents will be happy with the improved photo quality!

I’m really looking forward to further developing my photog skills (pun!), and I think that the ease of use and the high quality of the Rebel XS will greatly help.  Though every time I think of the Canon Rebel line of cameras,  I remember the Andre Agassi commercials when he was at the height of his ridiculousness.

So here are just a few of the 200 pictures I took within the first 6 hours I owned the camera.  Enjoy!
