BTW, if you take a camera with you regularly, take some colored

got a brilliant shot of one up in Canada. The filter increases the
contrast dramatically. They look kind of dull without it.

Back in the day, when I had my Canon AE1, I got into filters.
different lenses and such, but now that the digital age and "shirt
pocket" size cameras are the fad of the day, makes it handy to whip it
out when needed :-) rather then the bulky lens, filters and everything
else that comes with a "real camera"


Yeah, I never knew al that much about photography, but had th efilters
and used to try them if I had time. I got a real good one of a glory I
have on disc somewhere. I won 100 bucks with it at a contest held by a
local bank, in fact. I'll have a rummage around and see if i can find
it. I haven't seen your youtube one yet, my "broadband" is anything but
today.
