Hi I am a newbie with a birthday coming up soon and hubbie wants to get me something for my Photography... either hardware or software

So I am after ideas on the 'can't manage without' item for no more than $250.00. I enjoy taking pictures of my kids and landscapes - but am keen to try anything new!

My small collection consists of -
  • Nikon D40X
  • 18-55mm lens
  • 55-200mm lens
  • Elements 8
  • Dummies Guide to Nikon D40X
  • Elements 8 beginners guide
  • Tripod


Ideas Please!
