I have about 350 pictures from the GM 100th Anniversary Parade in Flint this past Sunday.

Check them out at http://picasaweb.google.com/bill.stoneberg

I tried to get all the cars at least once.

Thanks all, it was fun taking them.

Here is a question for you, would you all like the ability to order prints through Picassa ?

I can turn that on, I have NOTHING to do with it though except providing the picture from what you see on the screen.

Does anyone have Pics from the GM H F or Sloan ??????

My disposable camera didn't do so well.

At the top of my list now is to find a easy to use digital camera and learn how to use it.

The lighting wasn't condusive to my Walgreen special.

RY - I have photos from the Heritage Center as well...I haven't done a very good job of getting any up yet though. The lighting in there wasn't the most conducive for good photography. I didn't take many in the Sloan, but do also have a few from the Heritage Gallery.

I got my 80 MB Powerpoint slide show of the parade drafted up today...I'll try to gather some more information as some of the cars weren't in the Flint Journal parade guide and I haven't identified them yet. Send me a PM with an address and I can send a DVD when I've got things organized (probably a couple of weeks or so).
