Hold on to Your Hats (or Caps)

Here it is. . . The very first photo from my new Olympus E-30 camera. We will be leaving for a trip to Oregon in a few days to visit our children their and we will definitely be putting this thing through it's paces on that trip. Last night, being independence day, we went to the fireworks show. Wouldn't you know that this thing has a special scene setting for fireworks, so I had to try it. Well I've got a lot to learn because every one came out blurry. I did have it on a tripod so it was not motion blur, it was out of focus. I'd been playing around with the focus settings, and it was total darkness out there so I think it was in manual focus mode, and not set on infinity. I'll do some more tests in the very near future. The Photo below . . . Photo #1 is not very exciting, it's just part of my office. After all I had to push the shutter button at some point didn't I?
