As any proud Papa, I like taking pictures of my daugther.<br>Here are some of my favorites. I try to use a long lense as much as possible to get better depth in the picture. Usually I go with my 70-200mm Canon lense.<br>I know, I know, seeing pictures of other people's kids is like watching paint dry.<p>1 - Just took this picture last week. We had a holiday on Kauai for 10 days. I greeted Sonja with flower lai ( I flew in a few hours before my wife & daugher).<p><IMG SRC="http://kjelstrup.homelinux.com/kris/Hawaii_06/Sonja%20posing%20with%20lei.jpg" BORDER="0"><p>2 - Also from Hawaii.

Re: Favorite pictures of my daugther (flybynight)

Very nice shots. What mode do you use most often with the Rebel?

Re: Favorite pictures of my daugther (geo1)

For these types of pictures, either full auto, or portrait mode. It all depends on where the sun is if I want to force the flash to go off to remove some shadows.

Re: (flybynight)

Kris........<p>Get the Ipod! Worth the $$...For performance...what are you thinking? Downpipe and exhaust? Or a chip? The downpipe/exhaust will get you "some" addtional KICK..the chip will get you some impressive results!<br>Contact RSalesman here on SS...tell him you are friend of mine. He has done some "Serious" mods to his R! Getting @ 370-375hp now! Sounds very "throaty" with the 3''downpipe and new exhaust and it is "stupid fast".....<br>I even put an IPD sport exhuast on my old 240.....just for the fun of it. Changed the sound a little...gave me a "tiny bit" more power in 2nd/3rd gears...but it did increase my gas milage by @ 2 mpg...which on a 240 is not as good as you would think for a 4cyl. <br>I may send Devin a few of my daughters pics...just for the fun of it!<br>BTW....your Orangeman pulled of the big one in teh BigE tourney <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://********************/smile/emthup.gif" BORDER="0"> Hope they get a "dance card"!
