On the Boardwalk

Have point-and-shoot, will travel!
I've not had much luck in the past with my camera when lots of sun and sky are around {fortunately not conditions I encounter much as a city-dweller}. The pseudo-manual mode presents not a lot of options to battle my arch enemy, overexposure. Also, because I have no viewfinder and a screen that's pretty useless when it's bright out, photography becomes point-guess-and-shoot. But after some trial and much error, I seem to have found a go-to range of shutter speeds for outside outside-of-the-city. Woo.
These photos I snapped on a recent funtimes-trip to Ocean City, NJ, around noon on a very beautiful sunny day.
