My sister recently returned from a trip to Poland, where she took in the three main cities of Wroclaw (aka Breslau), the capital Warsaw, and then Krakow. She also visited the concentration camps at Auschwitz-Birkenau, the site of one of human history's worst atrocities. Amazingly, she also managed to find a statue of my hero, President Reagan!Fortunately the weather held up, and typical of Canon compact cameras, hers metered very well and produced accurate exposures. Proof that you don't need bulky DSLRs and lenses to get decent shots. I sifted them through Aperture to give the colours a little bite.
