Default A half-completed Spanish mission

I mostly take concert photos, but for my very first shoot with my very first dSLR after I got it in August, I went to San Xavier Mission in Tucson with DesertRose. These photos have very little if any modification at the moment... I will probably at least edit the first one a bit so I can frame the first shot with my first "adult" camera. :-)

Photo number 0001 on the camera:

Nice shots of something very familiar to me. Like the perspective

Very Nice, I've been there several times and it's always a wonder! I like your last photo best and the 3rd perspective is awesome, perhaps a bit overexposed, but you can fix that.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael

That was one of those right place/right time shots - I was setting up and the bird flew in, so I had to snap it that instant! It flew away after about 2 seconds there.

Leona - it's just one of those places everyone has to get a shot of, isn't it?

Michael - I'll be honest... I didn't really notice given how many shots I looked at at one time. But you're definitely right that it's a little overexposed. Shouldn't be too hard to fix.

Beautiful shots for your first time with your new “adult camera” too! I was honored to be with you on your first time out shooting with it. It was fun and I always look forward to shooting with you! Some day I will make it to a concert with you.
