I went for a leisurely ride on a trail around the bay the other day and got a few decent shots that serve as extra motivation to save up for an SLR. I had a lot of opportunities for some beautiful shots, but am appalled by the graininess I got. Nevertheless, some turned out ok and I’ve got a couple fun ones:
These guys kept trying to elude me so I had to sneak into the brush, sit there, and be vewy vewy quite.
Apparently, I was very close to the Palo Alto airport which I’ve been told is one of the “busiest single-runway general aviation airports”. Look at that sky. Man, that blue would look so rich without the grains.
What the heck kind of bug is this?! It looks like a miniature anteater!
I think they followed me from Minnesota. Now I know where the Canadian geese go in the winter.
This one I actually took with my camera phone. I’m amazed it turned out ok, but sad that it’s not much worse than those taken with my point and shoot.
A little bit of wisdom 
“Apparently, I was very close to the Palo Alto airport which I’ve been told is one of the “busiest single-runway general aviation airports”.”
and yet they don’t have any weather reporting!! sorry, i’m a nerd, and all i can think about is work.
Nerd! A-hem, sorry about that, just slipped out. You said it first. ;o)
I think the lack of weather reporting may be due to…oh, I don’t know…the fact that it’s ALWAYS nuthin’ but sunny here! The locals think a storm is when it’s raining.
