Mats public photo album

	In September 2002 I bought a new digital camera, the Canon G2, There are more settings and controls on this camera, which makes it more fun to take pictures, compared with our "point-and-shoot" Canon S100. The link to the left (click on the image) will take you to the best pictures from the first months. All are taken in Marin, CA.
	In this album you'll find some of the pictures taken in Sonoma and Marin county in October 2002. All are taken with a Canon G2 camera.
	Here is a few bugs and insects found in Marin, CA.
	Another nice day in Marin. First day in March I took a hike up the cataract trail in Marin, near Fairfax, CA. I went there mainly to take pictures of the waterfalls. The reflections in the lake/dam looked pretty good also.
	Nice but cool day in Marin. Took a bike ride around Ignacio/Alameda Del Prado in Novato and found tons of caterpillars... everywhere...
	Some shots taken in April 2003. A few from up on Mt. Tam. and some macros of damselflies (I thought is was dragonflies, but was wrong). Also some of my flower shots... :)
	Some pictures from Marin from various hikes. These are taken with a Canon D30 that I got in May. Not a lot of megapixels (3M) and not that new (~2yrs old) but still pretty good in my opinion. Check yourself...
	More pictures from hikes. Saw the first large snake in the area. Have no idea what kind it is. If you can spot it, please let me know what it was.
	Another hike. I set out to see if it was possible to reach the top (with various antennas) that you can see from most of Novato. It was possible, but quite a lot of work. After reaching the top (called Loma Alta I think), I decided to take a chance and took another trail down. I ended up by George Lucas Ranch.
	Some macro pictures taken with a set of extension tubes (58mm) and the Canon 28-135mm lens. Pretty trick to get them sharp without a tripod. All pictures were taken handheld.
	Yet more macro pictues. This time with an old and cheap 35-80mm lens with the same extension tubes (Kenko, total 68mm). This time I used the 420 EX Flash to get more depth-of-filed (DOF) in the pictures. All handheld.
	Yet more macro pictues.
	New camera, the Canon Digital Rebel (300D). Pictures from first few days. Some examples with the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6, some with the Canon EF 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6, some with (modified) Kenko extension tubes.
	More pictures. Found a nice tree in the overcast/foggy morning. Also got some shots at the Larkspur ferry when I got ferry tickets to the "Giants" ferry.
	Pictures from a walk from downtown Mountain View to Cuesta Park.
	Took the ferry to San Francisco to see the first game between the SF Giants and LA Dodgers in the double header on 9/27. They lost... :(
	On Oct 11th, Per, Kristy, and I drove to fort Bragg(?) which is on the bay between Sausolito and Golden Gate bridge to the the Blue Angels fly. It's fleerweek in San Francisco, have a look!
	Just a few pictures from a walk. Flowers, insects, and other stuff.
	Just a few pictures from a walk. Morning dew on rose leaves and some food storage for an animal...
	Some pictures with the Sigma 105mm EX lens. From the Marin art garden on Ross (most of them).
	Some pictures from a short walk on the 25th January.
	More pictures showing the "winter" here in California. From February 2004.
	Well, been very busy so here's just a few photos from the last few months. Up until June 2004.
