   Jamunca, it depends. There are tons of options, but I would start narrowing it down by deciding how much you want to spend, and deciding what you’ll use your camera for.

   I would recommend the Nikon D-40 or D-60 if you want a digital SLR that offers great quality at an affordable price.

   If you’re thinking of using the camera for more professional purposes, look at the D-300. More megapixels, more money, etc.

   Cannon’s are also great cameras. The Rebel SLR is a great camera for everyday shooting.

   If you want a point-and-shoot (not an SLR), there are zillions of choices, but I would look at the Lumix and Nikon Coolpix series.

   So, what would you recommend now? in the arena of camera-ness.

   Jamnunca, thanks. It’s a Nikon D-70, going on four years old. They don’t even make ’em any more – that’s how fast things change in the world of digital electronics.

   A similar view, though by now the rainbow was dissipating: http://www.flickr.com/photos/moonbird/3568505012/

   Don’t worry, it didn’t end at the Civic Center! From where I saw it, it clearly ended on the attic of a house near Choctaw Ave. I almost felt like running over and knocking on the door to say "hey, go look in your attic for gold!" but figured the residents wouldn’t be as amused as I was. I’d never seen a rainbow so close before, the colors were even visible in front of the trees and houses. What a great addition to a rainy Memorial Day!

   Jason, what kind of camera do you have? Your photos always look solid.

    Great shot, except that the pot of gold appears to be located in the Civic Center, and that can’t possibly be right.
