Goofy Golf in Safford

Karen, Mela and even Lon took care of 14 kids last week. Fortunately there were no casualties...

On one of their "sanity trips" Mela and Karen took all the kids goofy golfing in Safford.

The Photographer

All the pictures of me were taken by my beautiful wife. She used my old Canon G2. The G2, in my opinion, is one the the best cameras ever made. My other camera is a Canon 20D. I have three lenses I use most often...

• Wide Angle: 17-40mm f/4.0 L - very sharp, excellent lens
  
• Mid Prime: 50mm f/1.4 - great for low light situations
• Zoom: 70-200mm f/4.0 L - very sharp, great portrait lens

I hate to see people spend a lot of money on a really nice digital SLR and then use cheap glass. It's not how many mega pixels you have it's what you do with the pixels that counts. Excellent glass is the most important tool in taking good pictures. I would suggest getting a camera with less mega pixels and spending more money on good "L" series lenses.

NYC Revisited

Mela and I love New York. I think it's a place where we'd love to retire someday. We get a kick out of just walking up and down the streets, looking in the shops, and seeing all the sites. Manhattan is like a giant mall...
