Hey guys! :sun:

Jamy's pre-K graduation ceremony is coming up this week. As someof you may know, once parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, grand-parents, and step-everythings cram into what ever space they hold these things shows up, you're lucky to have standing room only. I decided that we are NOT GOING to have crappy video moments of these things ever again.

Tripods are viewed as demonic in these kinds of close quartered moments. So, I purchased a monopod from Wally world the other day for our JVC hard drive camcorder.

I decided to give it a test drive the other day at Jamy's field day. WOW! This Walmart special was worth every penny of the $15 bucks I paid for it!

(maybe for Christmas I'll ask Santa for a better quality one. but for now, this one'll do)

Ain't nothing like taking pics of hundreds of little kids playing outside to sharpen your photo skills. :trust: I really wish I could post some of the really great shots I took. they are fantastic. but I'd have to get permission from way too many parents.

Here's some of a kid that I do have permisson from the parent to post:
