All I got is my bike, a beautiful sunny day and a new Nikon D40!

I went for a bike ride to downtown yesterday. Words can’t describe the beauty and energy that was in the air in Portland yesterday.
I did my part to jump start the economy and bought a nice camera. I’ve always loved taking pictures with my point-and-click and decided I wanted a serious camera.
I really believe that the best way to enjoy any city is by foot or on a bike, so that’s just what I did yesterday and I brought along my new toy. Below is a gallery of some images that I’ve taken with this thing.

Bought my son the same camera for his b/day … takes awesome shots! Now, if I could only teach him to point it in the right direction …

It really does take awesome shots, especially for the price. The D40 kicks butt. And I really like how small it is. It may be a beginner’s camera, but the real value is in lenses anway.
My hope is to ‘cut my teeth’ so to speak on this one, then upgrade to digital Hasselbot, $40K. (just kidding, I can’t even spell the damn thing).
