tamtamkitty07: Your pictures are stunning!
I love them all
I was wondering what Camera and Lenses you use. I was thinking about purchasing a better quality camera and wanted a few suggestions o;

Awh thank you so much!
And yep, a Canon Rebel XS. I luff it!
Hopefully you can use your mom's camera, but be careful, once you do, you'll probably be obsessed. ;D

aha thank you ! <3
and my camera, like I said, is a Canon Rebel XS, and it's a great camera for a good price. If you look on eBay, you can probably find great kit deals of just the camera body itself for around $500.
I use the 18-55mm that came with the camera, as well as a 55-250mm (which is basically a zoom lens)
and just recently I bought a $40 lens add on for my 18-55mm that can make the lens see in fisheye, wide angle, and macro, it's fantastic.
I recommend the XS completely, because if you're just being introduced to the world of digital SLR cameras, it's a great beginner. Plus, it's cheap, so you can use the money you save to purchase lenses.
Another good beginners camera is the Nikon D60. Generally, it's the same as the XS, (except for a few technical aspects) but overall it's if you belong to Canon or Nikon.
(I'm a Canon girl myself. ;D)
like GotchiGirl96 says, megapixels can help make a better quality photo, but it also affects how big of prints you want to make. Generally, over 8 is a great amount to make a fairly large print, and that's what most SLRs are exceeding.
Once you get the feel of this beginners camera, you can start saving up from something with more features that are specific with the types of photography you're interested in. This can vary in ISO limit, frames per second, etc.
It just takes a bit of research. ;]
Sorry for the long post, I get carried away. ;D
Any more questions, feel free to ask. :]
