That's a beautiful landscape! How far away is that from Atlanta?

TY

I picked up this Finepix s1500 for $189. I am completely amazed what you can get these days. 12x zoom, fast frame shooting. Still need to work out lighting but I am pretty happy.

Not too far from where we run Miata's at Deals Gap

Only time I've managed to make myself puke by driving a car..... I was going 8 and 9/10ths through some areas and my equilibrium was thrown off a bit The Miata I was driving was tricked enough to hang with the sport bikes

I like this one the best.



When I get back home from work I can edit it a little bit for you...

Digicams are cool in that they're easy to use and take amazing shots for the money.

But once you try playing with the settings it's even cooler!
