I went back to New York City for the first time in over 20 years a couple of weeks ago. These pictures are from the top of 30 Rockefeller Plaza. This will be part of a series of NYC photos I post. The view from up here blew me away. I shot all of these pictures with my little Canon PowerShot SD970 IS Digital Elph.

This is where it starts, the bottom of Rockefeller Plaza.

Looking up from the bottom at the street level:

These are pictures of the old tool shed at our farm.Â It has burn marks on it from where the old farm house burned more than 50 years ago.Â I took these with my new Canon PowerShot SD870 IS Digital Elph camera I bought last week.Â I had it on the top quality setting, but had to crop them down to get them to fit here better.Â I changed them to black and white using Microsoft Office Picture Manager by changed the color saturation to -100.

We went to downtown Atlanta to go to the Georgia Aquarium today with our simple 3.2 mega pixel Canon A70 and saw the damage done by the tornado that hit last night. These pictures were taken about 12 hours after the tornado hit the CNN Center, Phillips Arena, Georgia Pacific and Equitable buildings, The Westin, among others.
