Year round-up 2: shoot'em up - view from behind the lens.

Things that made 2009 a oh-so-good year, in no particular order.
Part 2 today:

Finally I got to be the shooter rather than the one getting shot! Yes, I fulfilled a long-cherished dream, having my own camera. I got my very first camera, the Canon SX100 IS, right at the very second day of 2009. For the uninitiated, the specs and exactly why this camera rocks can be found here. In a few words, the chief attraction of this one is the 10x zoom range going upto 360mm and the complete set of manual controls, among a host of other pro features, coming in a decently compact package.

Some glimpses of the exploits that followed can be found in my Orkut profile.

As they say, a picture speaks a thousand words, so this write-up ends right here, letting the pictures speak for themselves. Signing off with this pic below, which is my personal favorite. I call this one 'hope'. This is the first publication of this pic. The people in the pic are my brother and my little sister.
