The pictures were great, top notch, but alas, I am still stuck in the '70's with my Canon FTb Single Reflex Lens camera that is fully mechanical. An old SLR can do things that no digital camera could even attempt. I could have captured the subtle nuance of the shoulder roast buldging out of the Senora's bathing suit as she passed under the umbrella while tugging on her straps. The interior shot looking out at the water would have looked so much better with a hard, tight focus on the waves, or a hard focus on the textures of the columns while the waves blur into the horizon. Such beauty was lost under the cold impartial computerized and digitized brain of the camera that shot them. Pity........I must go now, for I am experimenting with night photography on the various Halloween displays in my neighborhood. I learned the hard way that low light means a big ass apature and a steady hand on the shutter button. Out of all the photo's I took at the Conference only one of them came out, because like a dumbass I left the apature at F-4 and figured the flash would make up for it. While I may look like a dork setting up a tripod on the side walk, I am sure I will be able to sell these pictures back to the home owners at a tidy profit, so wish me luck!
