Bronze Roots (Canon S90) October 10, 2009

First Snapshots - Canon S90 My new Canon S90 just arrived. I picked up the camera, dashed home, "patiently" waited 30 minutes to put a little juice into the battery, and started snapping. The camera is great. Sure "great" is a pretty generic term, but it is sums up the Canon S90 very well. The camera is nice to handle, saturates the blues and red hues well, has good image stabilization, and works quickly. Plus the menu system looks, and functions better than any other point and shoot that I have owned. More writing to come about the camera, and more photographs too! October 9, 2009

Pompeiian Bricks Blue sky, ancient red brick, and bright sun. There could not have been a better day to visit Pompeii. Most people focus on the destruction inflicted by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, but the strength of ancient construction is fascinating. This red brick wall endured a volcanic eruption and the eroding forces of time. October 8, 2009
