Walking into the city, pointing the camera at street lights without stopping. First the four AA rechargeables in the camera gave out. I bought four el cheapo Rainbow brand AAs to keep me going. They lasted just forty shots, but since my mp3-player's battery had also shut down, I was on the bus home by then. Lesson learned: NimH rechargeables may look expensive compared to normal, but they are worth it. Get a battery charger. And thanks, Leo, for the mild nagging about it. More pictures once I have waded through the 113 pictures I took. They all look fantastic at first glance, which is worrying: perhaps my standards are slipping. Expect reams of coloured drool from now on...
