An old compact Kodak. And lately, I sometimes "steal" a Lumix from my sister, because it has a better focal length...



....and I need it to photograph large buildings. For instance, the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. It was impossible to "capture" the entire building, so I tried the Lumix:

Hm, explain?

In the meantime, here's some beach pics:
They're a bit big, so I'll just post links:

Haha, sorry Zaqarbal. I meant to reply to sodacake's posting.
I hate it that this forum never tells when there has already been a posting when you post a new one.
