Was loading the truck at Lowes friday night and the wind kicked up and took down several of the trees. Glad they went the direction they did...would not have been please with them laying on my hood.

Smells fishy - I think someone was tree tipping. Either that or they were so afraid of the Raptor that they passed out!

haha, there is no Mictouch setting, I wish there was, but you can't capture that expertise with a simple point and shoot.

It an Olympus TG-820. Its waterproof, shockproof, etc. We had a previous generation Olympus tough that died this year in Jamaica. The previous one was great for underwater and video, but only so so on regular pictures. From what I've seen of this one it is greatly improved. It takes awesome pictures and is super fast. It also has some cool settings. Joe took those pictures on the dramatic setting. The camera made the storm cloud darker and made our sidling look like crap (stupid Masonite! )

Here are some pictures of some of the other settings I managed before Joe left for his canoe trip...

fragmented

reflection,

and dog mode(automatically takes a pic when it detects the dogs face (she wasn't impressed, but I sure was))
