No Pics yet

So, to vent my frustration yesterday I went on an easy recovery ride during lunch.  I took my tiny camera to try to document my “fun” daily lunch ride.  Well, the $25 pocket camera that doesn’t give a “megapixel” rating because it would involve a zero and a decimal point didn’t do very well.

I checked the camera last night and of the 20 pictures it would hold, only two or three came out “ok”, and by “ok”, I mean “marginal”.  Some of the issues were around my inability to point and click something that small without getting shots of the ground or the sky.  The distance pictures were just fuzzy.  The ones that came out good were my self-portrait and the dog chasing me (because he was very close to my foot… yikes!).

I can’t figure out how to save the pictures off the camera.  It has the function, but for some reason it’s not saving onto my computer when I tell it to.  I’ll have to try again this weekend.  It’s a funky program that works only for that camera, and it’s the only way (that I’m aware of, anyway) to get the pictures off the camera.

But the camera sure is cute!  It’s smaller than my palm, on a keychain, and is PINK!
