Sunrise 6:22 am: New member of the jogging team

A slim and lightweight Panasonic Lumix FX-9, nicknamed Silvio, joined the Dawn Joggers this morning. Its addition was necessitated by the demise of not one but two digital cameras in recent weeks, reported by the male DJ in his blog. The female DJ has learned much about photography - and the quality of light - from the male DJ over the years, the importance of filling the frame when photographing faces for one and framing objects with their natural surroundings being another. The shot of Hoover Tower, a much photographed icon of the Stanford campus, is an example of the latter.
