Okay, here's my first picture ever taken with a digital camera, my new Canon Powershot G7. Taken this morning in Yorktown. Let me know what you think.

Looks kind of fuzzy, was it high zoom? Otherwise, very nice!

Edit: This is better now

That lens flare effect is becoming all the rage again with the kids today.

I suspect that Apple will implement this into the next version of OS X. 'Aqua, now with lens flare goodness.'

anywayz, good luck with the camera - nice first shot.
Reminds me of Huntington Harbor in LI NY.

Nice place to be, especially in summer. You should try to get to Sand City - there are beautiful western facing beaches that have great sunsets.

Yeah it is, thanks. I'm having fun with it. This was actually me second choice. The Lumix with the Leica lens was so backordered, I might have gotten it next year.
