However i had a freak wave getting it wet, so now I am waiting when it is going to give up on me, so far it is going OK with some minor problems

I have the Panasonic FZ-20 and I love it. It just goes to show you that in this day and age you don't have to spend a lot of money on camera equipment to take great pics. Its' all in the eye of the photographer.

Thanks,
Well as I said above I use Panasonic DMC-FZ50, -
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 Review - Digital Cameras

and for sorting and editing my pictures I use Adobe Lightroom (integrating it with Photoshop sometimes, but I am just learning that) - I am very happy with that software and recomend it. I shoot in RAW format - about 20MB a shot, but then you can edit the picture with bit more freedom, as you have more data.

I hardly ever use tripod, and most of my pictures are done on a run, while exploring the island with my family.

Well reading this amazingly good feedback from you guys, I will try to find out if I could publish some little book with the pictures. My wife and friends were telling me this for a while, but I thought that they were just trying to be nice to me :-), and left it at that. However now, when I get a good feedback from total strangers, there might be something in it. I always liked taking pictures, but I am not much of a marketing man, so is there somebody out there who has any ideas how could I go about trying to publish a little paperback with DR pictures around here? Or rather is this feasible idea?, it would not be a profit, but rather for saying "see this book..well those are mine pictures :-)" on the other hand I would not want to loose hundreds of dollars just to say that, but something that would pay for itself.
Thanks
David
