Purple rain

I was going to do a do-da blip then changed my mind because the camera couldn't macro. Then i was going to take a picture of all the shoes in the house but realised that would take too long and there wasn't enough room anyway...

Not too happy with my camera, and i don't know which one to get. I was thinking Lumix FZ38 but apparently you don't have full control over the settings. Does anyone know a good bridge camera for the same price? The only condition is it needs big zoom and controllable settings.

This blip is just enhanced by my computer because its been a dreary day, rain, english exam, rain, history revision, rain, bus home, rain.
