Chester,
Thanks for the link to the website. The brochure was very helpful. The digital pictures were amazing! If you don't mind me asking, what kind of digital camera did you use, and where can I get one?!?
27 days to go!

Sorry, don't check this forum too often.
I bought a Nikon Coolpix 4300 about two days before we left for Tahiti - first time using a digital camera. I've shot extensively using a Nikon F70 for a while; I decided to finally make the leap into digital for this trip, though I did take both cameras. It took a while getting used to using the digital, at least for me - and I didn't want to spend alot of our honeymoon fiddling with electronics, so it was mostly just point and shoot this time, with a bit of fill-flash for those backlit pictures, and some time exposures for sunset.
All in all I like the camera, but it was kind of spur of the moment - I didn't put much research into it (I think you can over-research these things).
My only complaint - I have a 28-300 zoom on my SLR, the Coolpix is 35-110. I may buy the wide-angle attachment for it. Though - we went to Darwin last weekend and I experimented with taking "panoramic" shots, i.e. taking a picture, moving the camera horizontally, taking another picture, etc. etc. Then, using stitching software to put them together into a panoramic. It worked pretty well. I'll probably put the pictures up this weekend on smugmug.
Hope that helps.

Just bumping this up. I'm still getting quite a few hits on our web page, so people are searching for and using the information on the PB excursions.

I've been using one of your pictures for my desktop at home and at work for a couple of months now. Thanks for the awesome pictures.
Thanks for bumping the activites booklet. That is quite helpful.

chester/david - i'll respond to both.
Glad you like the pics. About to upload all of our shots from santorini/rhodes, we just returned a week ago. Still thinking about FP for 2004, maybe Manihi this time.
