Taken October, 2006 (you can see the pumpkins in the background). I had never tried parade shooting before this and rather enjoyed it. With a parade people expect to be photographed and the action moves along, but not too quickly. Although I often wasn't quick enough off the mark, anyway. I'd like to try a parade again, someday. The day was quite overcast, which helped.
Taken with the Optio 4Si and this one is even cropped a little. While one can tell it's probably not 6mp or 10mp, I think it looks pretty good. I was fairly impressed with the Optio's performance, and it's a handy dandy little camera for these types of situations. I felt sorry for some of them, so much make up, so much smiling and waving, it must get tiresome. Nothing serious, just for fun. http://members.aol.com/eactivist/PAWS/pages/beauty.htm But comments still welcome.
