Rodent Regatta

I’ve been browsing the web a bit and have seen some galleries I like. I’m not just talking about the great photos I’ve seen. I’m talking about the way some types of gallery software or gallery scripts seem to work.

One of my favorites involves some type of javascript which runs when you click a link. A photo window opens with navigational links for that particularly gallery.

If anyone is familiar with the tools available for adding those capabilities within a Movable Type weblog, I could use a few pointers.

Digital Photography Review is reporting that Canon has issued a firmware update for most of its latest digital camera lineup. Now, using industry standards, you can connect a Canon camera directly to any printer equipped with the PictBridge standard for direct printing.

I haven’t kept up with 35mm SLR’s the last year or two. Does any reader have a suggestion for a good starter camera? I’ve got a daughter who has some coursework that requires that she buy a 35mm.

She’s enthusiastic about it, so I’m leaning toward something a bit above a totally manual camera. Anybody got anything good or bad to say about the Canon EOS Rebel GII? (Thanks in advance.)

Some great new photos from a Canon 10D with a 28-135mm lens. Take a look!

I rode the ferry tonight.

Darkness comes late when you’re as far north as Seattle.

The breeze on the bow of the boat was fantastic. I’m glad the ferry is not part of my daily routine. I’m also glad the fog isn’t something I have to deal with as often as it rolls in here.

Great contrasts with the South, but not all of them are positive.
