Geldrop
These pictures were made during a recent evening walk through my home town
Geldrop, a town close to Eindhoven, in the southern part of The Netherlands,
while trying out my new digital camera, the HP Photosmart. Hope you enjoy them!

front of the other side of it for a nice photo unfortunately

These pictures were made with the original HP PhotoSmart digital camera.
They were saved as .JPG and then optimized by the HP postprocessing software,
which writes the optimized pictures as .TIF or as .BMP. I chose .TIF and
later converted the .TIF files back to .JPG with Graphic Workshop.
To see the difference between optimized and unoptimized, look at
the optimization comparision page, or
click here to see all the unoptimized pictures.
I did not change
anything in the camera settings, I just used the defaults and let it figure out
the exposure time and flash on its own. The resolution used was the middle one,
so I could put 16 pictures in the camera's 2MB memory.
