Day one in the Super Dome, doesn’t look “Super” to \u00a0you??? \u00a0Well this is usually what our facilities look like, somewhere under the stands, the pipes, and heating ducts! \u00a0Such is the life of a lowly tech rep! \u00a0Oh whoa is me!! \u00a0O.K. just having fun with you!! \u00a0No that really is our room, but hey, it’s not and Afghan prison! \u00a0Before the day was out we had all our equipment cases and started to get things organized, I’ll show you that tomorrow after we put the finishing touches on it. \u00a0After the work was done we went back to our hotel to pick up some cases that had not been delivered. \u00a0We stopped in the French Quarter for some lunch and I did the first attempt at my DSLR vs Compact Camera Shoot-out. \u00a0Today it was the compact cameras turn! \u00a0 In the restaurant we had some nice opportunities and the quiet small camera served it’s function well and did not attract attention to itself! \u00a0The shot below of a young lady using her camera was easy to make and she was never aware that she had been captured.<\/p>\n

This image below was little different, this young lady offered Brien and I a sample of some Praline and I just had to ask if I could take a photograph of her, said, “I love your hair can I make picture of you??!!” \u00a0She said sure and then posed for me! \u00a0My little unassuming camera didn’t cause any problems at all, she was off guard and natural and I think the image bares that out!<\/p>\n

The images below were a piece of cake with the small camera;<\/p>\n

I’ll let you be the judge, but I think the little fellow, did right well on it’s first time out!<\/p>\n

Blessings,<\/p>\n
