Earlier I posted photos of Great Sand Dunes National Park taken with my Holga 120 TLR, but what fun is one camera when you can have two? These are the last photos taken with my beloved Fuji Finepix J38 point-and-shoot before it succumbed to the sand and my aggressive use. I know photography purists would never be caught dead with a point-and-shoot, but I hate carrying tons of equipment on a hike and I love how Fuji handles color. It was a good camera for the two years it lasted me. You can see the black & white 120mm photos from earlier in this series here: Great Sand Dunes (Pt. 1) and Great Sand Dunes (Pt. 2) .
