1. Those photos are dandy!

Love the close ups and the last one especially.

Check out used cameras at B&H or other place that carry used equipment. Nikon and Canon in particular have come out with new models recently, which means there are good deals on the older models.

Check out your local community college to see if they have photo classes. Also, Nikon has a great 3-day photo workshop that travels around the country. It's pricey, but worth it. And you don't have to take all three days.

3. You might be able to pick up a 20D somewhere

pretty cheap because they're up to 40D now. I have the 20D, and I really love it.
