(She's two, she's not getting anything I can't replace for less than $10.) They will both be in heaven...and I will too. I can't wait to take pictures of them...well taking pictures. So in a way my answer is "not yet." However, I'm not sure this is quite what your question had in mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-1166314326765007762006-12-16T19:12:00.000-05:002006-12-16T19:12:00.000-05:00Love the photo!

Best tip I heard was using a little aquarium in a shallow water for underwater shots. Works really well! Nice shot Carmi! We'll have to get you selling some of your shots online, they just get better and better.
