Aruba Carnival Pictures (using Nikon 8400)

I just put up my Carnival pictures taken in Aruba last month. There are two
albums, as I got pictures from both Saturday's and Sunday's parades.

Note to rec.photo.digital readers. Pictures where taken in VGA resolution,
normal compression. This allowed for easy lossless cropping using jpegcrop
on my right click send to menu. A higher resolution would have allowed me
to enlarge the ones that got cropped down in size. But more work, and I
need to preserve the time stamp for my html creating program.

Note the low light photos at the end of the second album. I was using
dawn/dusk mode. But the camera still used an ISO of 50, and slowed down the
shutter as much as it needed to take the pictures. So for low light outdoor
pictures this camera must be used in a manual mode. Possibly the program
code for this camera was taken from the 8800, and they didn't change the
code for the lack of image stabilization in this model.
