For your viewing pleasure, some photos I took of a fire dancer at one of Promise’s “Cherry Beach Sound System” outdoor DJ parties. These were taken August 2002.
I should mention that my trusty Olympus D-320L digital camera turns a whopping four years old this week. It’s a pretty basic camera by today’s standards, what with its single very wide lens and no zoom, a 640 by 480 resolution, and a relatively slow photo-taking cycle. Still, it uses battery power and RAM sparingly; with an 8 MB FlashPath card and 4 AA NiMH batteries, I can take 120 pictures in one go. It’s also a tough little beastie, having survived numerous drops and having a gin and tonic spilled on it by a very cute Czech redhead on New Year’s Eve 2000. I’ve taken over 7,000 pictures with it all over the world: from here in Accordion City to Halifax, Vancouver, Manila (twice), Japan, Hong Kong, Prague, Amsterdam, New York City (many, many times), San Francisco (also many, many times), Washington, D.C. and Burning Man. The only other artifact of mine that’s served me so well over the past few years is my trusty Titano accordion. Happy birthday, camera of mine.
