Cedar Point Pics June 23-28

Here are some pics from my long awaited trip to CP this year. There are about 170 pics, Check them all out and tell me what you think. http://www.drinkduff.com/gallery/cedarpoint/

I will have WallPapers added pretty soon as well. Enjoy

Now, For my trip report...I'll keep it short. Anyway, TTD was down the whole time as you all know. As soon as i went on MF for the first time this year, All my worries about TTD not opening suddenly went away. I had such an amazing time. I have to say, I dont know how people that have a chance to go to CP and not go because one ride is down is just crazy. I'm not one bit upset that i did not get on TTD...Sure i would have liked to get one it, But i didnt let it get me down. Anyway, WT is so much better this year. I love that ride...Its so intense, And one of my favorite coasters. I couldnt believe how high it went up.

Well, Thats about it for my trip report...I had one amazing time there. I hope to go back some time in August, Hopefully TTD will be up and running. Enjoy the pics.

Interesting...Where did you buy it?

Sorry, but I've been looking to buy a digital camera for some time, and I need somewhere to start. Thanks again Big D!

Does anyone know where I can find the best deals on digital cameras, on or off the internet?

I use the same camera. I got mine at Best Buy. You can see some of my pictures in past trip reports or on my personal coasterpages. It's a great little camera and as Big Dproved, can take some really nice pictures in different lighting situations.

Do you use the scene settings to adjust for certain light conditions?

Suggestion: when I post pictures, I weed out the duplicate and so-so shots before posting. 176 pictures is at LOT to go through!! I post my best shots only.

Also, the delay on the Coolpix, especially for night shots, can mess with you because you have to hold the camera so STILL to prevent blur. I try to find a place where I can rest the camera or lean against a pole to help me keep the camera steady for the shots with longer exposures.

Yea, I used the Scene modes on some of the shots...The scene features are incredible. I agree, Night shots are kind of hard to do with the camera. I ordered a mini tripod but it did not arrive in time for the trip. Thats the main reason i dont have many night shots. Friend of mine was uploading the pictures on the site because i was having probelms with my ISP. So he just uploaded the whole batch of them.

Anyway, I got the camera on Ebay from a store in Ny state. Camera was brand new and sealed...I got a pretty good deal on it. I love the size of this camera, For a camera that has this many features...Its REALLY small.

Thanks for the feedback on the pics, I really need it. I'm not a pro photographer or anything, But any advice to improve would be great. Photography is just a small hobby of mine.
