When I saw you used the little OSE, I just had to take a look.  Very 
nice photos.

The OSE has to be one of the best little camera designs of all time:  
inexpensive, very compact, almost idiot-proof and comes with a great 
35/f2.8 lens.  I gave my daughter one when she was 12 and she used the 
heck out of it, until she discovered digital.  On one Girl Scout winter 
camping trip, she handed her OSE to another 12 year old friend who took 
this photo of my daughter - one of my favorites.

Too bad digital has eclipsed this wonderful little camera in its prime.
