I mentioned my Minolta Maxxum 7D previously. It is a fantastic camera and Barry gave me a beautiful new lens for xmas to complete the package. I had purchased a couple of lens on Ebay, but this one is made for this camera and will probably rarely be removed. Here are a couple of pictures I did of Barry's grand kids Cade and Madison...
Once I had my digital SLR, I decided to add a compact digital for video clips and snapshots "on the go". I settled on the Contax U4R, which is a little jewel and I found a very slightly used one on Ebay.
Here are a couple from that camera...
This is Biggie, who is a rescue cat we got a few months ago. He is the most amazing cat I've ever known and I'm so grateful to be his caretaker. He was one day from being put down when Cajun Animal Aid got him. I'll be eternally grateful for the wonderful work they do. Here I am in the next shot tearing it up...
The Contax takes some great video clips, too. Andy just posted a couple of work out clips I took with it. There's also a new clip of my routine from "The Celebration of the Most Awesome Female Muscle in the World" (too damned long title) in 1993. I used a song by Dead Can Dance and my routine was sort of an urban shaman or sorceress called "La Loba" who can bring animals to life from their bones. If you're interested in learning more about the "Celebration", check out the new book by Kristin Kaye, IRON MAIDENS.
