At North Beach in the late afternoon on a Saturday...the sun popped out so away we went for a fantastic time! It was low tide but the surf was up. The boys had such fun splashing in the little tide pools and I really enjoyed testing out my new camera. Somehow I have managed to wreck yet another shockproof/waterproof/crushproof/freezeproof camera, but within the warranty period this time. So it's away getting fixed (hopefully) and this new one is a different breed - Pentax Optio W80. LOVE IT. Wait 'til you see...all of these are snapshots with autofocus only, no special settings.
