Playtime with our Canon 5D!!!

I've finally decided that it's time to move up to a better camera. My Canon SX30 IS has served me very well. I've been able to push the limits with its 0" macro to 35x zoom capabilities and after 1,000's of pictures, I've gotten a LOT of experience and a fantastic education. However, over the past couple of months, the problems I can't get around have become more than I can stand. I want better quality images, I want better bokeh, and I want the ability to save my images in RAW for single capture HDRs. I am tired of all of the NOISE and chromatic aberations the SX30 is known for. I am sick of blown out colors and trouble in low light.

Say hello to the Canon 5D!! YAY!! I spent some time today wandering around our property, familiarizing myself with the capabilities of our fancy camera, and here are the 12 pictures I've processed from my adventure! I hope you like them! I'm very pleased, considering the fact that I'm only just starting to play with this powerhouse camera!
