    Monte - I'm also sorry to hear about your battery woes.. just as an FYI, I just got a battery grip for Christmas and got two new Canon 7D batteries plus charger and case from "Wasabi Power" for ~$30 on Amazon. They come highly rated and I've used them in the battery grip for shooting a 5+ hour concert and have no complaints thus far..

    Pete - My pleasure.. I always enjoy seeing your shots each week, so keep up the good work & Thanks! We're taking our 3 year-old daughter out on the slopes for the first time so it should be a fun filled adventure! :)

    Some great entries so far! This one is pushing me... I had problems with too much light today... Snow+daylight = no bueno. Trying some things indoors tonight. I did get some cool ones last night but they were zoom movement shots. Gonna try and submit something I came up with on my own :eek:

    Wow, there are some great shots this week. I still have no idea what to do...
    Edit-I was just complaining to my wife that I don't know what to do, and she gave me an awesome idea.
