Thanks Jonie for sharing your pics with those of us who couldn't be there. I wanted to go so bad but maybe next year! My favorite picture was the one with the covered bridge. Do you remember which bridge that is?

[Jonie]

Thats the SCHOOL HOUSE BRIDGE at Lyndonville.

I think I am guilty also! Sorry, Mr Jonie. Your pictures are absolutely gorgeous. If you have more, I would love to see them all. Thanks for sharing!

I figured it was a Canon from the index number. That is a good camera. I have an sd500 elf and a S1-IS. The elf takes a better photo, but the 10x zoom is handy for wildlife. Both take very good VGA digital video clips with sound.

SD500 must be much better coz a friend of mine has SD400 and the pics he took were amazing....Well, in Canon A85 there is a mode called "foliage" in SCN mode, and I used that for taking the pics....that must be the reason why the pics are so appealing...!

Those who use this particular camera wil be better off if u carry a tripod along with u as u can avoid camera shake , the probability of which is more when u use this mode.

The SD 500 is 1 megapixel more than the SD 400. I've used the foliage mode a few times. Under the right circumstances I use the underwater mode for foliage. It brings out the colors but blows out the sky. I use a monopod with the SD 500. I stick in my belt over my left hip. It's fairly steady and very maneuverable. I'll give a real workout when I visit the snow geese next weekend.
