you might see about a 15 second shutter speed on that. so sit there with a drink and and some donuts

For some reason...I didn't have any issues taking these in Europe...but I'm fighting it now. I think I just let myself get out of practice (besides, I think I read the entire D90 manual on the plane)

This is from Vasto...a small town on the Adriatic Sea


I need to look at the original of this again, but I think I cropped it because of all the people walking around.


And my favorite picture I've ever taken of the Grand Canal (be careful what you say...I'm sensitive on this one )
