So ya wanna know how these photos came to be? Here are the details...

I'm not a professional photographer, so the equipment used probably isn't very impressive.

All photos are in 640x480 and 1024x768 JPEG formats. All but a very few were taken with a Sony Mavica digital camera, specifically the MVC-FD7. The original format is 640x480, so the 1024x768 may reflect blurriness due to software resizing. I tried to correct it when I could.

The Sony doesn't handle sunlight very well, and literally bleaches out certain areas with bright sunlight in them. So if you see white areas on some of the photos, this is why.

The very few photos which weren't taken with the Sony were taken with a couple of different personal still image cameras... nothing fancy.

As for software, I'm a faithful Paint Shop Pro user, and used it on all the graphics found within these pages.
