Well, this is my first time blogging, so I will give it a try. I recently purchased a Nikon D80 as an upgrade to my D40. I must say I see a significant difference in the overall operation of the Camera. It did take some getting used to with the expanded menu with the many different settings over the D40. Many of the menu item such as ISO and white balance can be changed from the camera body itself.

I find myself wanting to explore the cameras capabilities all the time. I am traveling to our family cottage in Portland Maine (Long Island Maine to be exact) to shoot the Portland Head Light. The weather is going to be a little suspect but may yield to some interesting lighting.
