as seen from the top of the Washington Monument (WM). Access to the WM is free, but only a limited number of tickets are handed out each day, usually they run out of tickets early in the morning. Each ticket is stamped with a certain time, at which you will then be admitted to go up the WM. We had no tickets and didn't expect to go up, but we were very lucky: We didn't know that, but at each time, when they let people go up, they let in some stand-bys, if not everyone with a ticket is showing up. So we were just allowed in on the spot! I had been up there before in 1995 and 1997.
Not sure how I thought of it, but the evening before the trip I sussed out that I could put photos back onto the FX01's memory card, and that if I put them in the right folder they'd be reviewable on the camera screen!
So I copied an existing 16:9 photo (including name) and overlaid it with screen grabs from local.live.com - then uploaded it to the camera. BINGO! A map of the area that I can zoom into (16x) and pan around in.
Worked like a dream :-)))

Flying over the Bay Bridge in San Francisco on my way in to the AIM workshop. Decided to go crazy with the post processing and make it look silly. Kinda like the results.
This particular series of landscapes are based off of combining angelic colors and earth colors. The angelic colors are high vibrational colors such as hot pink, or turquoise. These are used as base colors. The earthy colors such as umbers and ochre’s are painted on top. Yet bits of the high vibrational colors intermix with the lower vibrational colors making it a balanced color experience to view. In other words the bright colors and neutral earthy colors are combined together in a very subtle way.
