I am thinking about taking the family to Washington, DC for July 4th. I haven’t been in many years.

Cons:
-It’s crazy
-It’s crowded
-It’s hot

Pros:
-It’s crazy
-It’s spectacular

This picture was taken in San Francisco, California. Behind me is the Golden Gate bridge. I should have been looking at that, but I happened to turn around and see this great shot.

This picture was taken with the original Canon EOS 6.3MP Digital Rebel with 18-55mm Lens and a Polarizer filter. The new Canon Rebel XT 8MP Digital SLR Camera is a step up. The new features include instant power-on and it is smaller and lighter than the original.
