New Camera

I love my new camera...Olympus Epl1...It is a great  point and shoot camera with a large sensor..I bought an adapter for it that allows me to attach my Nikon lenses.  Here is a photo of a rose I took with my Nikon 50mm1.8 lens.. I used Topaz Software to give it a painterly effect..The soft background is created by the Nikon 50mm lens. (Click to enlarge)

Bobcat Cubs

Two weeks ago I was taking a walk and spotted a mother bobcat and her cubs..Since I almost always have a camera with me I captured a few photos...I went back 10 times and only got two opportunities to photograph them....Here are three of the best photographs...They are cute and their behavior is very similar to house cats..
