Up until several years ago, when you saw someone with a Nikon like I shoot with you, you knew they were with a news organization or magazine. Today, everyone is walking around with expensive Nikons and Canons. And they have them set on auto! <br /><br />A good point and shoot camera, set on auto, is great for the hobby shooter.<br /><br />People who buy expensive cameras should invest money in classes so they learn how to use them.aurbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04234712574405718245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7741611759961206426.post-74190872993833532592010-04-25T10:24:47.314-06:002010-04-25T10:24:47.314-06:00That is great advice.

I can't believe the beautiful photos you came away with using only a point-n-shoot. <br /><br />I carry one in my pocketbook for "just in case" purposes, but I'm never satisfied with anything that comes out of them. They're just too limiting for my tastes. I'm going to try your challenge, though.<br /><br />I think it'll be a tough one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05905623376783787214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7741611759961206426.post-50889603086352040582010-04-23T21:30:12.916-06:002010-04-23T21:30:12.916-06:00What a challenge!

You certainly proved the point of the photographer making the shot vs the equipment. Wonderful shots - 2nd is my favourite.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483295526635664974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7741611759961206426.post-59517970267575506222010-04-23T11:14:39.944-06:002010-04-23T11:14:39.944-06:00Looks like you had a ball!

You were clearly limited by your tools, but these are still some of the better photographs you'll find posted on the internet today because of your eye and sensitivities. Sure looks like Phun to me!Scott Lawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10987812136291082288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7741611759961206426.post-57249852240269988832010-04-23T07:58:23.378-06:002010-04-23T07:58:23.378-06:00Beautiful photos.We use to make it to Moab a coupl...Beautiful photos.We use to make it to Moab a couple of times a year.There is not a better place to take pictures and mother nature. Dead Horse Point was one of our favorite places to go. Without seeing it,it's very hard to describe the beauty and awe. I'm looking forward to the rest of your pictures,sure you have plenty of Arches and Canyon Lands national parks. No one take these kind of pictures better than you! I've been talking with Scott about a fall trip there.Chadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13241826760468021711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7741611759961206426.post-51167039313674678052010-04-23T05:42:31.597-06:002010-04-23T05:42:31.597-06:00The last bit of your post is so true.

I know a guy that goes out and buys the latest and greatest camera on the market as soon as it hits the stores but he takes no time in learning the art of photography so sadly he just keeps wasting his money on expensive equipment he can't get the most out of.<br /><br />I'm happy to lug my DSLR around because I know I will get quality but have come to realize that point and shoot cameras can also serve there purpose well.<br /><br />I love the mood in your last image.Memories Of Minehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13372908229050942550noreply@blogger.com
