on friday my new digital cam arrived (hp photosmart 850), and i had a lot of fun with it

so i thought i share a pic i done with it. in this i tested the macro focus with flash. i am no longer sure why some people do complain about the "lousy" macro capabilities of digital cams. another myth (at least with the hp 850) is short battery life. i am very satisfied how long the batteries last in it. at least after i switched to a set of 2000 mAh nimh rechargables.

but back to the picture - the orignal pic right out of cam was 2272x1712 (992 kb). the only retouch i did to it - was reduce the size to 50 % for this 1136x856 (286 kb) picture.

c&c welcome
