Back Home

My camera is back home where it belongs.  I was so excited about this.  The thought was that it would be gone for two weeks. Yet it's only been one week, to the day, that it was shopped out.

Upon seeing the brown box sitting on the porch I actually let out a happy little "yippee".  I could hardly wait to open the box and see what had been fixed.  I did at least put the kids in the house before running to the door and bringing the box inside.

After dinner and jammies I took A outside to give the camera a quick 1-2 run through.  Everything seems to be okay.  They said they fixed the barrel on the lens, but I still don't think it's working correctly.  When I compare the pictures from tonight to the ones taken the first couple of days with the camera things just aren't as sharp.  It might just be the lens or maybe the user.  All I know is I'm a little sad now.  I was looking forward to the lens working like new.  But I'll just remain happy that it is home in time for friends coming to visit this weekend.

Here is the picture from tonight.  After being a little disappointed in the SOOC, I decided to play with the edits in Photoshop.  This is the end result.
