Naval Heritage Center -- Event: Demonstration drill:
Bruce Guthrie Photos Home Page: [Click here] to go to Bruce Guthrie Photos home page.
Description of Pictures: On Tuesday afternoons during the summer, Navy personnel do a demonstration drill at the US Navy Memorial. Like the Twilight Tattoo that the Army puts on, these involve juggling guns with bayonets. Unlike the Army, the Navy actually brings spectators into the middle of the event. On this day, two women were brought in and the show was done around them. Afterward, the women each got hats. Apparently they were not told that one of the guys had cut his hand during the exercise while trying to catch one of the guns. Personnel told me that happens most weeks. Frankly, I'm a bit surprised that they are allowed to bring civilians into the shows at all.

2003 photos: Equipment this year: I decided my Epson digital camera wasn't quite enough for what I wanted. Since I already had Compact Flash chips for it, I had to find another camera which used CF chips. That brought me to buy the Fujifilm S602 Zoom in March 2003. A great digital camera, I used it exclusively for an entire year.
Trips this year: Three-week trip this year out west, mostly in Utah.
Number of photos taken this year: 68,000.
