Too much partying.

here's my photo of it.

Fleece booties keept their feet from becoming icey.

I lived in Alaska for a number of years and took photos is some awful temperatures (including during the Iditarod race.) During the race, I used a small camera that fit in my shirt pocket and kept it there except when I took a photo. This kept the camera warm enough so there was no problem when I went inside. At other times, when I used my SLR, I tried to keep it under my parka to keep it as warm as possible, but put it in a plastic bag when I went inside. I never had any problems.

I've had a D5100 for about 5 months but the manual does leave much to be desired. I've been learning mainly by trial and error.

Thanks for the tip on the "for dummies" book on the camera--must get one!

Kauai sunsets rock!

The north shore of Kauai is paradise!

Aloha, Albany, NY!

Constructive criticism, please. I did some cropping in photoshop, and also made slight adjustments to the color and contrast.

4. I like the original better, but would crop out some of the water in the foreground

I have the Nikon D5100 and love it. Whether it is better or worse than the Canon I can't say, since I've never used the Canon. A friend at work has the Canon and he loves that as well.

Also, the Morman Road area is great for bison and perhaps these guys. Again, early morning is best.

Oxbow bend early in the morning-hopefully you won't have any haze from wildfires when you are there!
