Am I allowed to change my picture? If not, just disregard.

We are at a ski resort with our sons for Christmas, and I took this last night. It is my new favorite.

Crewing on a friends boat ~ Sailboat races get a little hard on cameras so I use my old trusty 5 year old Canon SD900 f2.8 1/160 sec.

Armor, Italy, ca. 1565, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City. Taken with a Canon A2000is. They keep it rather dark in there, and have a no flash policy, thus the darkness of the shot.
