I'll spare you, fine reader, the before and after presentations. You, being of keen mind and sharp wit, no doubt know what atrocious originals these shots came from.

Going through these old single megapixel shots reinforced a very important photography lesson for me -- the best camera is the one you have _with_ you. Without that little Canon, I would only have what images my mind can store. Digital file corruption and data loss pales to what happens in my mind.
