there's nothing better than

taking money from your kids on a bet.

today, while my youngest was a few lanes down, at a birthday party, my 17 and 16 year old boys decided they'd take on their old man at some kegling.

"hey dad, how about we play for $5 a piece?" (sure, i'm in!)

** i shot at iso 1600 with my new canon 20d. iso 1600 on this camera rocks. it's like iso 400 / 800 on the 10d. i really mean that. you can take a look for yourself, i have some examples right here (http://www.pbase.com/ajw/20_samples)

enjoy (taking your kid's money for a change) photography,
