Happiness is a 4gb memory stick

        Last Saturday, Chris & I went shopping and I came home with a 4GB Memory Stick for my digital camera.   This is a little card that fits into a slot at the bottom of my camera.   Ben tells me that the technology of this is similar to that of a jump drive.   The result of adding this device is 4 gb of additional photo storage.   That would be four billion extra bytes.  

       Now, I can change the resolution of my pictures from 3 megapixels to 6 megapixels, thus doubling the clarity.   Also I can now increase the amount of pictures from 20 at 3 megapixels, to 1300 pictures, at 6 megapixels.   All for around $25 dollars.

       I cropped this cardinal out of a much bigger picture.   He shows up a lot more clearly at the higher resolution.
