a few more pics, progress is slow in the supplied RAW converter with the time i have inbetween work, kids, etc.  While there are alot more, i will end this blog topic with these shots - obviously this is a great camera, well worth it to me.

inside the Lincolm Memorial

At the Vietman Vet's Memorial, I did not see the girl at the time and with a little Photoshop she appeared....

very fun museum to visit while in DC

definately one of my favoites, i had only a few seconds to take this shot of the capitol and the moon before the tour bus continued on after the stop light!

well over 300 shots, alot in panasonic's raw mode in need of development, learned alot about the LX3 and while it rests as below, i will get into some details in the days to follow.

a couple shots uploaded, the Lincoln Memorial -

and the Washingon Memorial (from the Lincoln Mem. steps)-

 The LX3 was very good at night, best i have ever used in in low light (just as advertised)

...and that's why I couldn't post a new blog. Which means it's been a scary long time since I've been on here. Anywho, tomorrow in the wee hours of the morning, I will be embarking on an adventure. I am going to about 9 different states in the southern part of the United States, for about 9 days. I, along with a small group of other students from my school will be touring the south by bus in order to obtain more knowledge about the Civil Rights Movement. I am doing a research project on how photojournalism affected the CRM and I'll be taking pictures on the tour with my Lumix G1. I'm anxious to leave and excited to learn so much more! I will be tweeting about the trip and you can follow me on twitter to learn more about the Civil Rights Movement and to follow my location. I'll also try

So, I've yet to experience my videos being in HD. Brittani's promotional was beautiful! I'd love for my vids to look like that.

To anyone who already makes HD videos for YouTube or elsewhere, what is your favorite aspect of 1080p, or what's the best advantage of doing your videos and HD. 

I want a high-def camera for WreckedRadio- I can't wait!

I have a NEED for the Lumix G digital camera.  I mean really - the DMC-GH1K kit comes with an awesome lens, a 1080p camcorder, has face detection (which i dont really care much about as my art is not all about faces), is very compact, burst shooting even when you are in RAW....goodness will the awesome details never end! 

I NEED IT :)  Ok Ok, I want it but this want is close to a need ;)
