One of the best ways to while away a weekend is to head out with the camera and an empty memory card, bring back the results and see what you’ve caught. My camera right now is a Canon EOS 350D, which is getting a little long in the tooth and has been superseded several times already, but still takes great shots. I manage and edit my photos using Aperture 2.1. This is a small selection of the 20,000+ images in my library.
