This is Cheyenne (out of Addison by Steele) born November 28th, 2009. She has been spending a lot of time down-stairs with us, Jenna, and the pups since Ben left. She is being an angel with the puppies. She is being very gentle (most of the time) and even looking out for them. It is really quite cute.
Cheyenne is obsessed with hunting and pointing flies all day long! It’s so funny. I’ve seen this before in other Llewellin pups. Some have no interest whatsoever and some are obsessed.

Michelle,
That is such a sweet picture of Cheyenne. I hope one day she can have puppies of her own. She would no doubt be a wonderful Momma.
You take such gorgeous photographs, which takes great talent and timing, but also a good camera. Do you have one you recommend? I am thinking of replacing my 15 year old camera…

Sue,
I have always been a Canon fan. My first after jumping on the digital bandwagon was the EOS 10D and I still use it. My main camera now is the EOS30D and I have a sweet little Canon Powershot SX20 (which I believe I may have taken the photo of Cheyenne on the steps with). It takes higher-resolution than the 30D, but I don’t feel it has the level of sharpness I like. It is a very nice camera to take in the field or biking because it is small and light (but not quite as small as a point and shoot little square one). The Powershot looks and feels like a small version of an EOS.
Out now, already is the EOS 50D, telling you how old my 30D is (although I just got it a few months ago! I look for deals on older models and got this one new for a wonderful price) You can even go better with Canon’s Mark line, but they cost more than my first car! lol. They also have the Rebel line which is a very good choice. It all depends on what you are familiar with–some folks are Nikon fans and they have wonder cameras and stick with them because they are familiar with the controls and such and may have compatible lenses, chargers, etc.
You take very nice photos yourself, Sue! So, as for a recommendation, it is difficult as it really depends on if you prefer an EOS so you can change lenses and have a lot of control over your settings, rather you already have lenses that will fit a certain camera (we all know the lenses can cost at least double what the camera body alone costs), etc.
If you are starting fresh, like some control, and changing lenses, I don’t think you could go wrong with either something from the Canon Rebel line or the EOS line (particularly the EOS 50D).
That’s my 2 cents, for what it’s worth!

Michelle,
That is all incredibly helpful! I’ll start internet researching based on what you said, tonight while I’m on “dorm duty” for my job at school. Really, I had no idea where to begin, so your advice is wonderful!
I’m starting from scratch with a camera. The one I have is just a point and shoot, very old, but my first digital. It has about a one second delay between when I press the button and when the picture is actually taken. As a consequence its just luck getting a good shot of anything moving! The thing I really like about it is it has a little viewer screen LCD that swivels around so you can hold the camera down low, at dog and wildlife level, and get a shot from the right angle.
Well, thanks!
Maybe some day I’ll have some decent pictures to share!
Sue
