Wow, i appreciate a lot your effort of coming to the Philippines to see your friend. What nice photos

I posted several of my photos of my trip to the Philippines. It detailed things that happened each place we went, and posted about three pictures to each detailed posting.

I have a lot more pictures than I posted. I tried to pick photos that would help tell the story. They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

The mistake I made was not learning more about that camera before I went to the Philippines. I asked Carol what I needed to know to take pictures. She told me push this button, and she pointed to the shutter button! Well, it is that simple for her because she has been using that camera since 2006. I bought it for her when she was going to the Philippines in 2006 with our friends Al and Claire. I couldn't go then. But to me using that camera was not that simple. I didn't know where any of the settings were. I learned a few. The huge mistake I made was not using flash when I should have. The picture looked good in the display screen so I took it that way, but when I put it on the computer a lot of them were too dark. A few were blurred, and that is natural, except it has an anti shake in it that is supposed to avoid blurred pictures, but not many of them were blurred. Most of the pictures that were not good were too dark. I was either taking the taking the pictures against the light and the camera lense was shutting down more than it should have, or I was taking pictures in low light conditions. A few times I used the flash, and I should have used the flash many more times than I did. The camera may have a setting to decided when to use the flash, and I think it does, but I didn't find it. So live and learn, and hopefully take more good pictures next time. I took many, many pictures, and so I got a quite a few good pictures, but I ruined many of them by not choosing correct settings. Oh, well!
