backlit

I was really hoping I'd be able to start off the new blip year with my new 40D, but it hasn't arrived yet. The trusty Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 has a few more days left of blipping (at least until I find myself in a situation where taking pictures with a large DSLR would be unwelcome), and I really will not miss the horrible noise at iso 200 (!) and inability to take any kind of presentable night shot.
