The Last Pictures

Seven months after Matthew was born, I bought a Canon Powershot S330 digital camera. Over three thousand two hundred photographs and dozens of short movies later, the poor Elph, case dented and labels worn off, finally succumbed to the dreaded Canon E18 error (probably due to beach sand getting into the lens drive). A new camera is on the way, but in the mean time here are the last pictures from the old workhorse.
