A shot from this morning - sorry to break another rule!

Hope you don't have to buy another camera! :biggrin:

Wow, you're on a roll Tim... with awesome shots (not with breaking the rules, though I guess we could say that too :wink: !) It looks like maybe you took the polarizer off for this shot?

Normally I don't use a polarizer when shooting into the sun, but I did for this one. AND I forgot to use my chairbrella and I got SOAKED from water dripping off the inside of the bluff!

Hey Tim, the camera is cheap (kind of) - it is that little square black thing on the back that costs as much as my car...

I love to shoot into the sun but I would be hard pressed to do it with that back. The cheap lenses work best.
