Digital cameras are great. Taking tons of pictures and then archiving them without checking them out becomes second nature. I passed over a few neat shots because of that.

This is the third year I've seen these winter animals pop up in the most unlikely of places. These two elephants were hiding in between two shops in the town of <a href="http://www.kloster-ettal.de/index-uk.html">Ettal</a>. I couldn't resist the picture....<br /><br />Ettal is well known for the local abbey and it's monks. The monks make <a href="http://www.tompgalvin.com/places/de/bayern/ettal.htm">beer</a> but I doubt that's what attracts all the visitors to the area. It's gotta be the mysterious snow elephants that are in hiding throughout the year.&nbsp;<a href='http://picasa.google.com/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a> </content> <draft xmlns="http://purl.org/atom-blog/ns#">false</draft> </entry> <entry xmlns="http://purl.org/atom/ns#"> <link href="https://www.blogger.com/atom/3337205/113559011051952870" rel="service.edit" title="" type="application/atom+xml"/> <author> <name>PanamaJim</name> </author> <issued>2005-12-26T10:36:00+01:00</issued> <modified>2005-12-26T09:41:50Z</modified> <created>2005-12-26T09:41:50Z</created> <link href="http://www.panamajim.com/2005/12/as-part-of-routine-housekeeping-i-ran.shtml" rel="alternate" title="" type="text/html"/> <id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3337205.post-113559011051952870</id> <title mode="escaped" type="text/html"/> <content mode="escaped" type="text/html" xml:base="http://www.panamajim.com/blogger.shtml" xml:space="preserve"><img style="CLEAR: all; FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.panamajim.com/uploaded_images/pano-701714.jpg" border="0" />As part of routine housekeeping, I ran across this image on my computer. Despite the artifacts (ghostings and blurs) I like the picture and thought I'd post it. This is a compilation of about 10 or 11 images.
