Isn't/aren't she/we lovely ...

I went to a wedding over Memorial Day weekend (laden with dentists, incidentally) and I thought I'd share some of the pictures that I took. Because I thought some of y'all may care. Please don't stalk my friends, though - thanks.

     
My Scott; & Rebecca, the bride (obviously)

     
Jeremy (the groom) and his twin brother Josh; & their respective girls - Jamie & Becca

     
The happy couple(s) - Jeremy & Becca and Scott & me

And a group of my good friends and me - Amber, Caleb, Becca, Jeremy, Jamie, Josh, and Scott. And me.

While I'm on the subject of photography - I've always thought that I'd give up my film SLR when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Even a convincing pitch at the wedding (the "real" photographer was very friendly and she and her assistant (husband, I think) were chatting me up and trying to convince me to go digital) didn't sway my opinion. Do you know why? One reason, I don't have a thousand dollars to spend on a good digital SLR. The other reason is that I like negatives - I know that in 100 years, there will still be prints made from negatives. I can't say that for .jpgs or .pngs or .gifs or whatever. It is nice to be able to see pictures as soon as they're taken, though - I'm in that "instant gratification" generation, remember.

One really convincing plug for digital photography showed up in The Week newsmagazine for the week of June 16, 2006 (love that magazine - LOVE.) It's a blurb for the HP Photosmart R927, which "compresses pixels at the frame's center and expanding them around the edges ... mak[ing] anyone seem skinnier." SWEET. Daily Gadget has sample pictures taken with this slimming camera.
