What a Fourth of July! I don't know if it's just where I am, or if it's the people I'm with, but this was the most festive Independence holiday I can remember in a long time. There were fireworks all over the lake for two days, and the general spirit is so high.
We spent most of the weekend on the boat and/or eating. Or both at the same time. It's a rough life. We watched fireworks and lit tiki torches. Friday kicked off a full ten days of friends and family at the lake, so it's the best kind of mild chaos.
I took a million pictures with the new fancy camera I got for my 30th. I am a disaster with this camera in my hand. Lots of learning to do, but I'm thrilled even with the "auto" results.
Here's my hot boat captain. I can't imagine life without him.
FUN!!! Fun, fun, fun. I would say you are getting some spectacular shots even on auto. Did you do any cropping to these? I think you have a good eye for the great shot - especially loving the Boat Captain shot. Definitely print, frame, and hang.

Looks like you are learning to handle the camera! When are you back in LA??
