Thanks for the complements, Dyson! *blush*

I think it's more the cropping/enlarging I do with my photo editor... It definitely helps to be able to tweak the brightness for shots taken in full sun so I get better contrast and better color saturation... But I do like my camera! It's a few years old, so it's a bit thicker and bulkier than the newer ones (which I've been eyeing), and I have to admit I rarely take advantage of the ability to override its auto-settings... I'm using a Sony DSC-V1.

With the conservatory photos, I just got lucky with the lighting... turned off the flash, and every photo came out wonderfully.

Here's a photo from a couple of years ago that was a favorite in the DG photo contest that year... It's buds are getting fat now, and I'm looking forward to the blooms!
