We crawled out from under our rock this weekend and decided give ourselves a photo assignment. We recently upgraded Miss Avril to a SLR from an old point and shoot camera, so we headed out early to grab some photo practice.
First we landed at Marin French Cheese where we not only took some scenic photos but grabbed some good grub for later lunch consumption. They open a nine a.m. and the sun was perfect for photos.

Looks like we added "competitive" photo taking to our list of fun weekend activities. I can not wait until our cruise to Alaska! I hear there are great photos to be taken there.

Quite the photo phamily! Those are really nice pictures.
(Isn't the Marin Cheese Co. a hoot? All those damn geese!)
cookiecrumb-Thanks! It was an enjoyable weekend adventure. I forget how much fun there is close to home.
Fun family outing!
I saw you guys did Inverness. That's a fun town too. This is the best time of year when the weather is good but not so many bodies.
Those are some great shots. That lens looks huge. Which SLR did you get Avril?
Chilebrown- That is a 80-200 zoom lens on a Nikon d40x. In truth that is my original digital SLR. It is equivalent to today's D3200. It takes magnificent photos.
