Powershot S3is – Daffodil Hill Photography

Rain Delay

Because of the much-needed rain showing up this weekend I have not taken but a few shots since last week late. So here are three of one of my favorite subjects while I am on rain delay! The top and bottom I took with my Minolta 35mm film camera in the morning one weekend.The middle with my beloved, and no longer working, Canon PowerShot S3is at dusk.

Meet My Little Friend The Canon S3is

The second digital camera I bought is also been my favorite. It is a Canon PowerShot S3is and it is a solid, versatile and competent camera. After a visit to my place from manojuchila @ Goosby’s Photography I toured his place. I then started to appreciate the Canon line of PowerShot S series more. He uses a PowerShot S5is as well as a Canon compact SD series camera.

So I would like you to meet my little friend the Canon S3is, well at least the world through its lens. Enjoy!

I love the contrast between the hardness of the rusty post and the soft touch of the flowers.

…….more time to shot outdoors right? Well maybe not if I have to factor in the list of spring chores and unfinished projects. So I am grabbing the photo opportunities as they come. Here are several I have taken in the last week. Enjoy!
