Birthday sparklers

It's my 21st birthday today. Here is a sparkler from my birthday cake.

I have taken hundreds of pictures today, because - as you will see, if you make a habit of snooping around my EXIF data - I got a new camera for my birthday today! It is a Nikon D3000 - my first dSLR. I am, of course, still learning to use it, so please be patient over the next few days/weeks/years as I make a series of heinous errors.
