Back to the Grand Geneva resort, this time with my internal medicine peeps. I'm going to miss these people.

A murder mystery party. There is a serious lack of pencil-thin mustaches these days.

I've taken over 2000 pictures with my camera since I got in December. To say that I love it is an understatement. If I die, I may end up bequeathing all of my earthly belongings to it. My friend, Vaishali's husband brought his D300 to the medicine retreat, which is such a massive camera compared to mine (it weighed a ton. I'd never be able to keep it steady) and, it took beautiful pictures, but I think mine does a good job too and will be even better once I get more practice and become a better photographer. He lent me his 50mm f1/8 lens for the evening though, and oh, that is heavenly. It is going to be my next (and likely last as I can't really see needing anything else) lens, I'm just saving my pennies. My next project is learning how to create high dynamic range landscapes; I took some photos during that rainstorm a couple of weeks ago, when my basement was flooding again and if I had known that HDR existed then, the pictures would have been phenomenal, instead of just pretty.
