The best
place to purchase photo equipment. I have been buying from them for many years

for new or used photo equipment give "Sy" a call at 1-800-223-2500 extension 2265.

30 day "Try before you buy" deal. You will not be sorry.
After switching to
Canon EOS digital I just keep wondering why I didn't do it sooner. Wonderful products and
great customer service. If you are thinking about "Going Digital" Canon
is the only why to go!

nice hotel on the Greek island of Naxos with reasonable prices. The Lianos

If you are planning on visiting Greece, the island of

a bar stool and watch one of the most beautiful sunsets in the
world.

support products.

Tim Grey is one of the
best sources of digital photography information that I have ever found. His
books are easy to understand for someone just starting out in digital. I really
like his new book "Photoshop CS2 Workflow." Be sure to sign up for
his free daily Digital Darkroom Questions (DDQ) They have some great Q&A's dealing
with digital photography.
The airline that I use
whenever possible. In my opinion, they have the best frequent flyer program
around. If you do a lot of air travel it is best to stick with one airline that
has many partners like United does. Those miles really add up fast!!
