Learning Lurker No More

I am outing myself here! This forum is incredible, I've already learned quite a bit from you folks!
My name is Christine, I live on Long Island, mother of two, married to my best bud, and when not working or creating I am out rescuing creatures with four legs, mainly Shetland Sheepdogs, but we don't discriminate.
I have a 6 year old Canon Rebel and a Canon Powershot SX 50 hs. The powershot just replaced a Nikon P500. I use the point & shoot for my macro shots and because I must have a camera with me wherever I go! Typically my Rebel has the big Tamaron lens on it, rarely if ever took it off but I just purchased a macro lens and a proper backpack for my summer field trips. Now I am just waiting for signs of spring to get out there and try it. I am considering an upgrade to my Rebel *sniff-sniff*, just not sure to what yet.

Welcome to the UHH forum and howdy from Houston! :thumbup:
If you like the Rebel, consider moving up to the newer T3 or T3i so you don't have to buy new lenses!

I don't have to buy new lenses. I have some from when I get my rebel 6.3.
