Cool pic's ^^^, went back to a family get to together to unveil my Uncles headstone. This is at my mum's
Marae (a meeting place for the families to come together). The family grave yard is just up the road on a small hill.
This Marae is just outside of Cambridge close to Hamilton in the mighty Waikato NZ.Taken with my Pan GF 1, Im still a newbie when it comes to using it.
The dining hall
The meeting house
They drink this and and Waikato beer
I drank too many of these
It was a good night drinking with the relations, my Uncle george had his ole record player out playing oldie goldie records until he got kicked off and someone put their ipod thru the stereo.
Peace

I need a new compact camera, Canon S100 or Fuji X10? What do you think?
-
They were taken with my 7 years old Sony W5 and tuned with Picnik at Flickr. I think it´s time for a new one.

Man that looks like a kickarse drink, though… Nice pics!..
Cheers, there were 16 in the box, my brother brought the cans which were 8 % (I didnt drink any of those). I must of had about 6 of them plus some Lion Red beers over a space of 5 to 6 hours, gave some to the cousins. I went to bed early and some carried on till 5 am.
Then it was up to cook breakfast, we had leftovers from the hangi (a big underground oven that you cook, chickens - there were 40 chickens, pork, beef, all your veges, potatoes, kumara, stuffing. And its cooked underground for bout 5 hours, we had about 350 people to feed, this is a simple explaination), steak and eggs, baked beans, toast, mussle fritters and Coke or lemonade drink.
Steak n eggs, toast, baked beans, mussle fritters and Coke in the morning, ummm, breakfast of Champions, Not.
Then me, my younger bro, Dad drove back home, I slept most of the way.
Ahhh what a life…
Peace

^The second to last pic is awesome :)!

If you are going to be spending upwards of $600ish I recommend checking out the Canon loyalty program. It is a legit program does where you purchase a refurbished camera then place an order (THROUGH THE PHONE!!!!), and then you get an additional 20% discount on the already low price refurbished cameras so you can get a pretty cheap DSLR. Then again I think this is for the US only. but if you know someone over here who can do it for you then you will be getting a nice deal.

AND…. I bought a Canon 7D last night
Really would have liked a 5D MK II but - I would rather wait until the 5D MK III is announced cause I would like a 5D MK III more so. I just hope Canon doesn't announce a 7D II before then otherwise mine will probably go down significantly in price although I did get it through the CLP so it only came out to ~$1200.

finally got to take the 50L to the city! I have a ton more pictures but I don't wanna post them up all at once.
-
Might as well post the rest also..
-
Hahaha! I know… He wanted me to take a lot of him because part of my time in the city was for headshots for him. thanks though!
Btw, if you click on the last picture read the story that goes with it
-
Hahaha, thanks Cris! Nothing wrong with re-arranging your gear. Actually I love variety also, it is better to try new things every so often IMO. Change = better.
And to piss people off even more I bought myself another lens (don't worry this one is actually really cheap).
