Vail, Colorado
I have to say, the G9 saw WAY MORE ACTION than the 5D2 for reasons that it was way too inconvenient to carry a big camera most of the time. I really learned to love this little workhorse and treated it a bit like it was disposable, which made me use it more. It rewarded me by surviving snow, water and some pretty serious weather. I took the little G9 snowboarding for 3 days, dog-sledding and trekking and had it in my big snow pants' pocket most of the time. A handful from the trip:

A couple videos to come, once I get them processed.

I especially like the water fountain one because of the snow formation!! And number 2, with the snow on the pines!

A couple meaningless, yet sort of pretty, videos from the 5D2:
I'm partial to the creek--that is beauty-full!
It was a lovely guy called Drew, who was a great driver. I did get to stand on one of the rear rails (what are they called?) on the last run, which was great fun.
okay more from the Eagle River coming...

Don't ask me why:
This one actually looks superb in 1080 taken with the mighty 100-400mm. Again, useless, but here you are:
Indeed! Somewhere I read that Aspens are in trouble (disease or beetles or something) but Vail and environs was teeming with them. Apparently, a clump of them are really one tree with a complex root system. you can tell the clumps apart by the coloration.

Don't know about Aspens, but the Pine Blight Beetle has taken a heavy toll. The area around Dillon/Frisco looks very sad. :cry
Speaking of pines, the closeup shot of the pine and snow is superb!

The image of the cat is good too (for a cat!).
