Couple of pics from the top of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
Well actually the 124th floor cos you cant go any higher unless you work there.
Theres another 30 more above where I was

That's just NUTS!   

Was the building swaying at all?

[C_stripes]

Those pictures are awesome. I really hope to go in that building someday. I hear pictures just can't compare to the size of that building.

My friend took this picture of sunrise last week

Some random raining from the cruise in the Bahamas last week.

Well even though you cant feel the building swaying I believe it actually sways about 5 1/2 feet.

I was also lucky enough to get into the Burj al Arab.
My nephew has a connection in there so we were able to drive right up to the front door and go inside.
We also snuck up the elevator lol
Here's some pics

I hope everyday wasn't that way... that can put a real damper on your cruise experience.

The view inside what I assume is a hotel is beautiful. WOW.

  Opulence can be quite amazing sometimes.

[ChargerD100]

Got this for 5 bucks at a garage sale today  

is that the actual coin just glued on there? cuz that coin is worth at least $100 even circulated!

[The70RT]

It snaps in a recessed area. It looked to be in pretty good condition

[ChargerD100]

bad ass, yeah we had one come through the gas station i work at one of the other sales clerks paid the dollar and took it to a coin shop they offered her $100 immediately

Some pictues from last weekend

[Brock Samson]

those are pretty gosh durn good!  i been there, many times.. but never with a camera.. i ordered a new one last Fri.. That last of Half Dome is EXCELLENT! 

[ChgrSteve67]

Unfortunately those pictures are taken with my sport camera. I get a 50 / 50 ratio of good and bad images.
Its hard to take a bad picture in Yosemite if you have a decent camera.

I really want to get a DSLR camera with a good standard lens and a telephoto.

The day I took the half dome photo there were about a dozen or so people on the top walking around. I could see them thought the telescope at Glacier Point but my camera just doesn't have the capabilities to zoom in that far. It would have been a awesome shot.

Another pic from last week.
It's the Temple of Hercules smack bang in the middle of Amman, Jordan.
They're still uncovering many ruins in the immediate vicinity as well.

Nikon D7000(seven thousand, didn't want to confuse with the D700).  Simply the best DSLR made at a very affordable price.  It's a DX format but out performs pretty much everything and image quality is only second to the D3X(nikon's flag ship)
It's simply incredible, no other way to put.
Dont get the kit lens(18-105) It's a waste of $300.
Buy the body and then decide what you want to do lens wise. There are multiple scenarios and at every price point you can imagine.  I would be glad to suggest some though.
