There was a lovely sunset tonight. I watched it all the way down 192 as I was driving back from the gym. I'm now back at the villa scowling at the Nikon; which through no fault of its own is in the kitchen, where I left it. My little Canon snappy is in the bedroom, where I left it. Neither of them were with me at the time, which is why this is posted in the General Chat area and not the photos forum.

And I bought the Canon a few years ago specifically so that I could always carry it around with me just so that whenever an opportunity arose (like a good sunset) I could snap away.

So I have a tip, as much for myself, as for all budding photographers ...

The best camera you can get - is the one that you'll carry around with you always.

As fate would have it I had a tripod in the boot that probably cost 3 times as much as the little Canon digi did. C'est la vie!
