It’s been a while since I’ve made it up to the Summit of Mt Baldy so when an opportunity came along to take a day off from work I jumped right on it. I checked the weather forecast and it looked promising — sunny with nice, puffy cloud cover — just what I enjoy the [...]

Amalfi’s Church at sunset, originally uploaded by MikeSperlak. Ever since I’ve given my Canon S3 to my son I’ve been struggling with our older, smaller, point and shoot Canon sd450.
