Greece, a child's life
I took this photo with a 2MP camera quite a few years ago in tirasia in Santorini. I only added a touch of nostalgia….
The light was so beautiful that it let itself captured by a 2 MP…. :)

Cvail73 replied
Thanks Ellen :) When I took the photo, it reminded me of a scene at the beginning of ‘the big blue’ film :)

The light is excellent here, i forgot to mention that :)
Cvail73 replied
The light in Santorini was truly exceptional, even with a little 2Mp camera I took with me at the time, it was difficult to fail; I intend to return there at some stage, with my Dslr. it was years ago..

Gorgeous work, cvail!!
(And on a 2MP – same as me!! hehe)
Cvail73 replied
Thanks! It’s the eye that makes the photo, not the camera…don’t leasten to people who believe technical aspects are king, they are only a mean to an end…
Colleen Milburn
Thanks indeed, cvail… I will keep that in mind :-)))))

if getting an SLR takes too much time, you could get a canon pwershot G(X) series, or the Canon S(X) IS, they are much cheaper and will provide you with as much pleasure as a DSLR.
In my life, I add a basic film cam, a very good film SLR minolta 7Xi, then a canon AE-1 which is a gorgeous anhd cheap dino it makes brilkliant photos!! I still have it, then a 2Mp brandless, then an optio SV very small compact, then a Canon Powershot S5 IS That I still have and =love, A canon 20 D then aCanon 40D. I have loved them all and I love them all to bits still. The photos I got fromn each of these were very different, but all had their particular character and quality!
Now I think of it, I’ll post ome photos I took with my mobile phone, a Sony Ericsson W900i, that I still use as a camera :)))
The black and white photos I am going to post were taken as black and white under very low light conditions, but I love them! :))
Keep cherishing your 2 Mp :))
Colleen Milburn
Oooh, thanks so much, cvail – you’re a mine of information – can’t wait to see more from your mobile phone!! :-)))
