Awww, thanks so much! *blush* I liked the last one a lot, too. The red berries against the dark green and white were really striking to me. =D
Now, I shoot with a Canon 50D, and I took these with the lens I use the most often. It is (I think ... although I'm terrible at remembering the measurements) a 28-135mm lens with a macro feature, which makes it a nice, all-purpose lens. I get decent telephoto function with it, as well as the ability to get closer, macro-type shots. (Not "true" macro, but probably the closest I can get without switching lenses. And I'm super lazy about carrying multiple lenses with me. >.O)
When I decided to switch everything over from film to digital, I started out with a more basic Canon Rebel. I can't remember the model number at the moment, but it's several years old. I liked it a lot -- enough to happily upgrade to the 50D. And I love my 50D. It has a nice, solid feel in my hand, which was one of the things that drew me to it right away.
Before, when I shot with film, I started out (again) with the Canon Rebel. And then, later, upgraded to the Canon Elan -- which I loved, loved, loved. Switching over to digital was a hard decision because I loved my Elan so much. But it just got too expensive and hard to get film developed -- hence the switch. If I still had room in my house for a darkroom, I would probably shoot film sometimes -- just for fun. Film definitely gives you a much different look and feel to the photos than digital.
Anyhow ... wow. Sorry for the super-long comment. *nervous laugh*
