Yes, Christmas. What a beautiful place. The Powershot S60 takes pretty good shots for a P&S.

Here is another from March this year. A walk up my mom's street. All I have is family photos, I'll try for some non-people shots next trip.

Not a bad back yard hua?

jsla - nice panorama looks like you got used to that camera pretty quickly. I particularly like the cheeky way you included the two people at the extreme edges. Not something I would have thought of but in this case I think it adds a defininate curiosity value & gets the eye scouring the image to see what else is there.

eastbluffs - if you were refering to my Grand Canyon shot the lense is the standard Panasonic one on the FZ20 no additions at all. The original image came out rather flat & hazy so I was a little dissapointed to be honest & regretted not having any filters. However, I had a rare moment with photoshop & just did an auto level adjustment to see what would happen & bingo. Probably a bit too much contrast & also when it is blown up full screen it gets a bit noisy but I liked it so much I have it as my desktop background now. So photoshop was the only trick I suppose, really I just got lucky. I can post the original if you want to see the transformation.

Oh & yes it was winter George if you count Easter this year as winter in the GC. It was just on the edge of spring I guess if the green desert with wild flowers was anything to go by. Just my luck, I travel to a desert from the UK & what do I see :D. Seriously fantastic holiday though :cool: .

It was a very wet winter in Arizona, and the desert and the flora went crazy. Glad you were here to see it.

Winter ends around mid May up there.

Very nice area up around Seaside. Been there several times and I have a very good freind, and photography mentor, who moved from Lake Oswego to the Seaside area about a year ago as most of the weddings he shoots are on the coast.

I always look forward to going back. Thanks for the shot.

From last Saturday - turned out better than I thought it would.

Something about it feels like a gateway to me, but it seems to lead into the water.

Great Shots. Thank You All

Hello,

I'm new here and wanted to thank you for sharing those great shots.

Until now, I have always been a diehard "film only" shooter, but I am now anxiously awaiting my new KM A200 to arrive. If the shots I get are anything like I've seen here, all my old Maxxum stuff might have to go the way of the DoDo Bird and wind up on ebay. :D

I was especially impressed with the Grand Canyon shots, as I'll be going on an Elderhostel photo workshop next May. This will take us to Bryce and Zion Canyons, as well as the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I'm very excited and hope to capture some fantastic shots with my new A200. And I think I will be exceedingly glad for the image stabilization feature, since these old hands just can't seem to hand hold any more.

Thanks again Everybody.

:) Anne

Anne you will love it at the GC. geof C has taken an A200 there & posted some great shots so I think you will have some fun with your new camera. As a taster here are a couple of panoramas I took recently. Don't think I,ve posted these particular shots before although there are some on the panorama thred apologies if I have.

Thank you Phill

Phill, those are lovely shots, and I hope that by the time I get there, that mine will be nearly as good. I've been to the South Rim, and you are absolutely correct. I loved it and didn't want to leave.

I'm not sure which I am looking forward to more.... the camera arriving, or the trip. Now if only those people would ship the camera!! They really are taking their time about it, while I'm like the proverbial kid in a candy store. When I want something, I want it noooooooooooooooow!!

Thanks again. I am just blown away by the talent I've seen on this site. I thought I was pretty good with a camera, but you guys just make me look like an amateur. The good part is that you are all so generous, that I know I'm going to learn more here than I could at any school or workshop.

:) Anne

Yep I've learnt a lot here but I still consider myself a beginner who just gets lucky now and again. Thanks for the complements, enjoy you new camera & holiday and be sure to post some shots when you get back. I think it will be a long time before I can afford to return unfortunately :(

The landscape outside my front door

taken a couple of weeks back - on a really misty morning. A few cows and (I think) one bull grazing in the cool of the morning.

River Kai Noi, Thailand

A quiet river, snaking through rural Thailand. You're never alone, though - as you round a corner and see a row of house boats like these.

With all of the bad weather lately around a lot of the country (the latest...8 days of rain...14" worth...in NYC this past week), I thought it would be nice to take us back to a lovely August day at Point Lookout, L.I....
