The color of lemons

Two lemons and an orange found on the beach and photographed with the Canon G9. Camera was at ISO 80 with color temp. set at sunlight. Only post-processing was a channel snap in curves. — Sean

Canon G9 test drive

Regular readers will remember an accident this spring with my trusty point-and-shoot. I've been looking for one ever since. I thought I had a winner with the new Canon S5, a newer version of a camera that our friends Cassie and Will used on their honeymoon. And then I got sidetracked and never ordered it. Recently I came across a mouthwatering online review of the Canon G9 and I pulled the trigger. It arrived yesterday, right before our trip. So I spent the plane ride reading the manual and making a few moody pictures of Abby in her seat. Since I will be learning about this camera on our trip, check here the next few days to see the results. The above image was shot in color, underexposed by two stops at ISO 80 and then post-processed in Photoshop CS2. Pretty awesome so far! — Sean
