Sunsets lets see 'em

One of my complaints with my Canon point-and-shoot is the horrible night photos it takes. It's not even worth trying, even when it's just dusk out. I've gone through all the manual settings and nothing seems to work well. It is 4 years old though, so maybe it's just time for a new one.

Which one do you have? cuz my Canon A530 took decent night photos (as long as your using a tripod :-P) My moms A580 takes pretty good ones, but its a lot newer tech too.

I have the SD450 Digital Elph. It's old. I think one of the problems is that it has no image stabilization, and I don't have a tripod for it. I dunno. That's my only complaint. It takes great pictures otherwise.

The A530 doesn't have image stabilization either, and I got some great photos with it - even with the camera I had before that I could get some decent ones at night...

I know I want to definitely throw these into this thread..pardon the pixelation, flickr's downgraded their quality of uploads on the free use stuff recently.

Thanks Bekah, I tried to top them tonight with the storm we had rolling in but these damned trees up in Muir Woods kept getting in the way..

By the time I had the chance to do something solid I was on the SanMateo Bridge, so I rolled down the window and got this shot..

!In actuality the both of them (first two) were taken for someone specific in mind, the Father at our Church. He said something very poignant recently about how people view people, specificly, people like him that are perceived weird because he likes, rather loves it when it rains and storms. I'm the same way, rain actually makes me very happy and full of memories of certain things, so I know that when I print them both up as an Easter present for him, he'll "Get it".

Montecito Sunset:




And of course, the reason for the trip to Montecito

[some_odd_girl]

Nice! I really like the 3rd one. And of course, the cars are pretty sweet.
