It's a Canon PowerShot SX 10 IS and really easy to use. It's a point and shoot, but does have a 20x zoom too and quite a few options. My sister has a Canon PowerSot, a different model from mine and loves it. It might be the one you mention. It's fun getting a new one, and I can't wait to see what you get!Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-7497420253881499552009-08-09T19:35:29.777-07:002009-08-09T19:35:29.777-07:00Hi Catherine, I need your advice.

However, I need something a little more "powerful." I so admire your photos - but I'm really a point-and-shoot person that enjoys just enough fiddling with modes to make it interesting.<br /><br />What camera do you use? And what do you think of Canon PowerShot SD890IS 10MP Digital Camera?Shady Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05007816271406393818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-72915063182454274632009-08-09T00:53:06.315-07:002009-08-09T00:53:06.315-07:00What a lovely selection of pictures!

It really doesn't like how dry it's been, I've been watering it as much as I can.Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-29783546571626261302009-08-07T19:26:16.814-07:002009-08-07T19:26:16.814-07:00Love those pink phlox -- such abundance, they look...Love those pink phlox -- such abundance, they look like a gigantic bouquet!sweetbayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248743114944736346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-3941761723601094702009-08-07T17:21:17.068-07:002009-08-07T17:21:17.068-07:00Catherine, the dahlia's colour is so delicate....Catherine, the dahlia's colour is so delicate.

And I thought, bite your tongue missy! But I said, "It's cooler now but it does seem dark after all that bright sun." Personally I love it like this. <br /><br />Your pink phlox are absolutely delicious. As are the rest of the flowers. I cut my 'Othello' flowers off because I'm not into that color but I didn't realize I was cheating the bees. LOL. <br /><br />My 'Barnsley' lavatera reverted to pink several years ago. You know me, I love pink, but I really miss the pristine white with tiny bits of pink. It's interesting that yours didn't make it through our winter. I'll have to remember this if ever I find an empty patch of earth to grow it again. <br /><br />Cheers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-24188471410970289962009-08-07T09:38:48.561-07:002009-08-07T09:38:48.561-07:00Your photos are exquisite!
