First Digital Image

My wife and I finally purchased a digital camera. After much research, I chose the Canon S2IS. So far I'm pleased with the results though I haven't had a chance to play with the options out in the field.

Here's one of me taking my very first image with the camera. That's me in the image. :-)

The quality isn't so good because the camera was set to Auto ISO, and I think it used the fastest, namely 400, which has unacceptable levels of noise.

This is a test to see whether I can post to my blog with email.

Body Weight Conditioning

I have a little nephew in America who until a year or few ago was a podgy Nintendo playing, TV watching ... typical American kid. And then he got introduced to body weight conditioning and before you knew it was transformed into Superman. Here he is now, at 16yrs of age and check out some of the stuff he's doing.

First Post

Well, everyone has them. These infurnal things. Blogs! So, baa-aa-aa... I might as well join in.

This is my first post to this Blog. I don't know how faithful I'll be with this effort, but I plan to post my views on things in Java, rugby (I'm South African) and other arbitrary things in life.

So here goes... first post... publish!
