Spring is here!

It's a bit difficult to keep things in focus while

something small is being blown around in the wind:

Rod,

what camera are you using there? he's great!

I'm in the midst of trying to buy a new camera for my wife and like the HD features on some of the newer near DSLR point and shoot models. Price and being too old to figure out a big SLRs the main reason I'm not going there.

kinuta,

Testing the new Nikon.

which model might this be? happy?

thanks!

Nikon Coolpix S640. Yes, I'm quite satisfied and the price was very reasonable at about $120.

It's the Lumix FZ35.

I bought this for my wife because she didn't like the heavy weight and complexity of my Pentax SLR.

She also didn't deserve having my old Sony Cybershot that came before the Pentax,

so I spent a few weeks researching and went with the Lumix.

It's even lighter than the old Cybershot from 2001 and, of course, the big Pentax,

which is a plus for carrying around,

but I'm blown away by the ease and quality of pictures taken in "Intelligent Auto" mode.

If your wife isn't into constantly fiddling with it, then this is crucial.

One of the most complete reviews can be found here.

You can click on the "Features" link, go to almost the bottom of the page and

see a more "real-life" video taken with this camera.

I'm really considering this for myself (or maybe an upgraded version?)

for when I go back to Linz again in a few months.

The pictures of the multi-colored building that I posted above?

Those were taken with the Pentax.

That building is a constant light-show that I hope to be capturing with my new Lumix!

Thanks for that ... I was in between the Canon SX20 IS and the Nikon P100 but conjuring Ashton Koootcher every time I zoom has me thinking otherwise.

I'm going looking tomorrow so the Lumix w/ the Leica is now a candidate.

And it's right in the mix of the two spec wise.

I took this picture of Lance Armstrong in 2002, at the Karlsruhe Versicherungs Grand Prix 2 Man Time Trial. It was a few days after the Tour de France. At the time I wasn't so familiar with the other rider, but it turns out it was Floyd Landis. Interesting to see them together now. They came in 8th in the race.

"Kneel Where Our Loves Are Sleeping”

Words by G.W.R.

Music by Mrs. L. Nella Sweet

Kneel where our loves are sleeping, Dear ones days gone by,

Here we bow in holy reverence, Our bosoms heave the heartfelt sigh.

They fell like brave men, true as steel, And pour'd their blood like rain,

We feel we owe them all we have, And can but weep and kneel again.

CHORUS

Kneel where our loves are sleeping, They lost but still were good and true,

Our fathers, brothers fell still fighting, We weep, 'tis all that we can do.

VERSE 2:

Here we find our noble dead, Their spirits soar'd to him above,

Rest they now about his throne, For God is mercy, God is love.

Then let us pray that we may live, As pure and good as they have been,

That dying we may ask of him, To open the gate and let us in.

CHORUS
