[singlepic id=1266 w=480 float=left] Oddly enough, this is a better picture than my daytime shot of the Arc de Triomphe. That one was taken at 1/3 second shutter for some reason and, in the time before stabilized lenses*, that’s too slow to get a picture that is anywhere close to… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1265 w=480 float=left] This is the Dome of the Reichstag Building in Berlin. There’s more history to it than I care to recite here, so I’ll leave that to Wikipedia. I just think the dome is a cool looking structure. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1264 w=480 float=left] Regrettably, this is the best picture I have from when we visited the Berlin Wall. I have a few others, but they’re all focused on some specific section of the wall. The falling of the wall is probably one of the earliest news events I remember (the… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1263 h=480 float=left] How’s about a daytime picture of the Eiffel Tower. Meh – honestly the night ones are all better if for no reason than they’re different – you can google/bing/yahoo image search and come up with dozens of daytime pictures of the Eiffel Tower that are all… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1262 h=480 float=left] Photo of Paris, France from the Eiffel Tourist Trap Tower. I’m sure it’s not completely fair to label this as a picture of Paris when in reality it’s just a shot of a tiny bit of the city – Champ de Mars to be specific. Somewhere… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1240 w=480 float=left] Older picture from Busch Gardens in Florida from back in the day of the C-2040z. I probably have a dozen pictures of these guys that turned out quite good given the megapixel limitations of the camera being used. Granted, they’re of birds that naturally look very… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1238 h=480 float=left] Another from Bryce – this was another that wasn’t really thought out, but I like how it turned out. This was on the Queen’s Garden hike. It was actually surprisingly dark at the bottom of the canyon as evidence by the ISO 400 need just to… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1236 h=480 float=left] Second shot from in Willis Canyon, taken about 5 hours later and showing off the fun subjective portion of photography. It’s the same place as the previous picture, and the color balance of both looks “right” to me. This one was taken late in the evening,… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1235 w=480 float=left] I was all excited to post a few more pictures of the slot canyons in Grand Staircase Escalante, but as it turns out, I have already posted what I thought were the best shots back here. None the less here’s one more… this is Willis Canyon. … Continue reading
[singlepic id=1233 w=480 float=left] Back to Arches, because I was told that this should be today’s picture. This is from inside Navajo Arch. We were there just after rain, so there was a small pond going on. I was able to get past the water, thanks in part to waterproof… Continue reading
