We are a very happy American family that consists of: Rosa - Mom, Witold - Dad, and Janek (Yanek) - son. We also have two older sons, but they are already on their own. Rosa is a linguist (specialty Slavic languages) with many years of experience as a translator, Witold is a computer specialist by education, and computer and Internet specialist by profession, and Janek is a High School student. One of the reasons we are so happy is that we do most of the things together. We make a very good team and have lots of fun no matter what we do - write books (we just finished one, and the other one is almost ready), play games, or travel. We just love trips - shorter or longer - and we shoot lots of pictures. It has been told that one picture can say more than ten thousand words. We want to share some of our favorite pictures with you. Ten-Thousand-Days-in-Love
We included here over 250 pictures shot with Kodak DX4900 - out from over 13,000 pictures - and 150 out of 2000 pictures taken with our new camera Kodak C875.
These pictures represent some of the following albums: Los Angeles - downtown BIG PICTURE
We want to show you California you won’t see on postcards. California seen through the eyes of one American family that is proud to call her “their sweet home”.
People say that God chose California as His beloved place on the earth. It has been our dream to live in America, and we couldn’t think of a better place than California. Our dream came true: for more than twenty years, California is our home. Our sweet home. We have been feeling here like at home from the very moment our feet touched Californian ground. When we had to go for a four-year-long visit to Poland, the country of our origin, we were homesick – “our” beautiful sunny California were appearing to us in our night dreams. Also, when we were staying for a few months in Rockford in Michigan – otherwise a charming little town – we couldn’t wait to come back to LA. It is amazing that this place, right in the middle of a desert – is so colorful, full of tremendously rich variety of trees, bushes and flowers.
Los Angeles
And that the state has such a variety of landscapes: open ocean – and high mountains; desert – and lavish forests; lakes where you can swim and sail – and dry lakes; fields of tender strawberries – and vineyards… A few hundred years old cactuses – and a few centuries old sequoias and redwoods, the highest trees in the world ... Sunny sky on the beach, and snow in the mountains...
San Francisco
We want to share with you the beauty of our home – California. Not only places you can find on postcards, but its everyday charm. Pictures you can see when you live here – going to the nearest supermarket, on your way to your dentist, or during a weekend trip. People tend to get used to the surroundings and not to notice the beauty of places they see every day or frequently. It does not apply
to us: living here since 1982, we can’t stop being enchanted by the beauty of everything around us. We hope you will find it in our pictures.
As we mentioned, travelling is our passion. Of course, most frequently we visit various places in California, that’s why majority of our pictures comes from this state, including also those showing everyday charm of living here. But all our country is gorgeous, so we want to show you also pictures from other places in America. America – the beautiful…

I sold Kodak Easyshare C875 because camera do not have Image stabilization
The Kodak Easyshare C875 sports an 8.0 megapixel resolution and an all-glass Schneider-Kreuznach 5× optical zoom lens (with an addition 5× digital zoom), and aims at experienced digital camera buyer with sophisticated manual capabilities and a "smart scene" feature which automatically selects the best scene mode for a given shot. The C875 captures MPEG-4 VGA-resolution video at 30 frames per second and enables users to select "action prints" from captured video footage> the C875 has 32 MB of onboard memory, accepts SD/MMC storage, offers manual ISO modes up to 800, NTSC or PAL connectivity and USB 2.0. Expect the C875 by the end of August for about $300
Old camera best at the time 2002 Kodak Easyshare DX4900
With its 4.0 megapixel CCD and advanced feature set, the DX4900 currently (April, 2002) crowns Kodak's EasyShare camera lineup. Although it sports advanced options like variable ISO, spot metering, and long manual shutter times, the 4900 remains true to its EasyShare roots, remaining simple enough for even relative novices to operate confidently. Its images are a bit overly contrasty in my opinion, but show excellent color under a wide variety of shooting conditions. In particular, it handles indoor incandescent lighting with aplomb, something few digicams manage well. While it won't by any means qualify as an "enthusiast" camera, the DX4900 has enough advanced options that it could satisfy the camera bug in a family, while still remaining easy enough to operate that the kids could manage it. Kodak's aggressive pricing is the icing on the cake: If they'd introduced the DX4900 at $499, it would have been a good deal, but at only $399 it's an outstanding one. (This review was written in early April, 2002: Digicam prices drop over time, so the "amazing" price of $399 will be amusing a year or two from now. As of this writing though, the DX4900 is one of the best camera bargains on the market.)
The first ten-megapixel D-SLR from Pentax, this camera features trendsetting 22-bit analog-to-digital conversion and image processing that's two-and- a-half times faster than in outgoing *ist D models. Its sculpted body is bigger and heavier than the six-megapixel K100D and K110D, and unlike those models is weatherized. While its K-series siblings run on AA cells, the K10D takes a dedicated Li-ion battery good for 730 shots per charge. Standout K10D features also include the biggest, highest-magnification viewfinder in its class; interchangeable focusing screens; and sensor-shifting Shake Reduction. All for about $900
When you cut, copy, and paste items from one place to another, you're relying on Windows Clipboard to act as the intermediary, temporarily storing items as you copy and paste them. A drawback to this native system is that Clipboard can only store one item at a time.
