Beautiful Sunset
September 10th, 2003
Got another beautiful Sunset on my way home again tonight. My new schedule lets me get home earlier than before, and I’m seeing some nice ones. The first one I caught early, but was not in place to take great pictures–but I was able to get to a good bridge in time, and got the following ones there.
This last sunset shot I was able to capture blind–my digital camera’s battery had quit twice, and only let me take shots with no viewfinder. But it turned out great:
And then, when I got home, I got a great moonrise to boot.
Wow. Gorgeous. The moon looked like that here in Indiana too. BTW, what kind of digital camera do you use? I’m thinking about getting a new one around Christmas time as a present to myself. My current one is about 3 years old and showing its age.
I use a Canon PowerShot S30. I think the S45 or something is the current model. The camera takes very good quality pics (best viewed at original size, of course), and has a range of settings from full manual to full automatic, with everything in between, including some useful presets. I think recent models have larger, longer-running movie clip abilities.
Check out the reviews at C/Net (http://www.cnet.com) to see what they are saying at present. They have good reviews, and include many user comments, which can be even more useful than the official reviews.
