well today is my lucky day I guess, I responded to a thread on the DPReview forums titled "Call for hottest images" where they were looking for pictures from D70 users to use as examples in their D70 E-book, so seeing as I have a D70 i thought WTH and posted a bunch of photos I liked

well to my absolute surprise i get an email this morning telling me that they want to use one of my pictures in the E-book :shocked::shocked::shocked::shocked:

surprised the crap out of me, seeing as some of the people that post pics on that forum take ones that I feel are many times better then mine, but still cool for me, :D

they are still looking for photos so throes of you that have a D70 go toss some in there

anyway the E-book Info is here
http://www.digitalsecrets.net/secrets/D70/D70FAQ.html

this is an example from the Coolpix and Sony E-books
http://www.digitalsecrets.net/secrets/Gallery.html

and because one of my pics will be in it i get a free signed copy

This is the Picture that was selected

I respect a man with skillz. I'm learning to take better pix with my F-100. Oh, btw, how to talk my dad out of wanting a Sony DSC-T1? The old man wants it because it's a Sony, and it's very slim. I tried to get him to like something else, but, I lose every time. I guess what he wants, he'll get.

No dude, the Minolta F-100, the 4.0 megapix kind. It's not the greatest camera, but it good pictures. I still haven't read the manual to use all the functions it has yet.

I guess I can get him the T1, simply because it will be good for him, since I can show him how to take pix in less than 5 mins. For more than $400, I can think of many other cameras that's better than it, but since he's kinda old and that's what he wants, I guess I'll respect his wishes.
