Photography outage

Not much new with me, except that I’ve been very busy and am slowly catching up on things. My minor class in Tourism started today, and I have it all day tomorrow. It turns out that this is a very good course to take, because I’m told by French students that it is easier, and you also get to go out and see tourism sites around Poitiers. Perfect!

A few days ago, I went for a random walk with my wonderful Canon Powershot S2 IS camera. I went down by the river through a pathway from the street, and quickly found myself in the middle of the woods pretty much with houses built into the sides of hills, and farms visible in the distance.

Not sure where this path leads to. You can see the wall knocked over for some reason. I didn’t do it.

The river, with some left behind in the water. The walking here was a bit muddy, and my jeans needed a wash by the end of it.

Suddenly, my camera was making weird noises, and then stopped working as it threw error messages at me. That was the end of it. I’m not having much luck with electronics here. I’m working on replacing it now, but that will likely be a hassle from France. I’ll likely have to buy a new one here and worry about fixing the Canon under warranty when I get home.

Have a great week!
