Hi guys
Here are some pictures from my hiking trip this past fall in the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument in south central Utah. All pictures are with an older Sony DSC 85. I'm looking for a new compact digital camera with greater zoom but needs to have optical viewfinder as I find LCD screens don't work well for my outdoor photos.

Enjoy. I had great weather and a great time

Peter

Tony,

Thanks. All topside shots were taken with a Canon 20D camera and a Canon EFS 18-55mm lens. Nothing too fancy, just autofocus point and shoot. No Photoshop or post-processing, other than cropping where necessary. The underwater shots are a little more sophisticated, but the equipment is not mine (too expensive).

I love my Canon, but it is almost 4 years old. I would love to have a new Canon 50D, but I keep buying these damn knives!!!!!

David,
Thanks for the info.
A professional photographer I work with uses Canon Cameras.
Another friend who was a army photographer in Vietnam uses Nikon, but
feels either/or ... he says "there are Nikon shooters and Canon shooters."
My Son loves his Canon 40D. I might be looking at a DSLR for me this spring.
I'll have to see if the 50D is an improvement!
Tony

Gentlemen,

Thanks to all of you thus far that have contributed your time to posting some wonderful photos of your life's travels and some other cool shots. This is exactly what I had in mind with this thread and I sincerely hope that we can encourage more of you in the Randall world who enjoy these great shots to post some of your own. Don't be afraid to ask these guys how they took these pictures, we all want to become better by example.
So thanks once again, I'm very impressed!

Best,
Warren

Warren, your picture of the rose is maybe my favorite.

Are you sure you didn't steal it from NatGeo?
