    I don't even know if my camera does all the fancy stuff you talk about. I lost track of my manual. I usually just put it on macro for flowers and it turns out pretty decent. I would love to have a really good camera and know all the technical stuff. Maybe someday.

    The blurred backgrounds do make the subject of the picture really stand out. Such professional pictures - I could never do this.
