I really like this over the original strap. I like the extra pocket it's big enough for me to carry extra cards or an extra battery. I don't like that sometimes it gets twisted a bit but I'm getting used to grabbing it so it won't twist as much. Also, I don't like the anchor point. Seldom do I use a tripod so that's not a big deal but I have a battery grip, and it makes it a little tough to hold the camera in portrait orientation with the big hook in the way. It's still possible but I wonder if it could be better.

This was a quick little walk while we were stretching our legs from our trip. We normally try to stop here on the bridge, if for nothing else, to stretch our legs and use the facilities. I always enjoy walking around out here, but I've also been here at 3 am and it felt creepy!

So I was doing some senior portraits for a friend, I figured it would be a fun experience. I don't generally like to shoot people but I've been enjoying it more lately. I've got to say, I think I did a pretty good job, but I also see plenty of room for improvement. Some might say well how does this qualify as a photowalk?

So it was a nice day and we decided to take the family down to the beach for dinner and a walk.
