I seem to recall something similar, Chuck. Maybe that is why the title
immediately came to mind when I saw them bunched up. Then, it was just
a matter of finding an angle in a constantly changing scene.
I have seen several comments about accidentally hitting buttons on these
small cameras, but I hadn't encountered it until yesterday. I had a
strange symbol pop up in the finder, and couldn't figure it out until I
got home. I had taken white balance out of "Auto" somehow. It spoiled
a bunch of indoor shots. Strangely, at least to me, the jpgs from the
camera were better than any fix I could make to the RAW images.

When I saw the "little indians" sitting around the fire I couldn't
help but remember a line from an unknown western I saw as a kid
probably in the early 50s. An indian speaking to a cowboy who is
building a very large fire says: "Indian build little fire, sit near.
White man build big fire, gather wood all night." That's probably
from 60-65 years ago but it's so clear in my brain I think the words
are an exact quote. :-)
Strange the things we remember and also the things we forget.

I attended the last few minutes of an all-afternoon 10-yr birthday party
for my oldest great-grandson yesterday. As the sun got low after an
afternoon of swimming, water slides, and ball games, the air got cool,
and the remaining cousins gathered around the fire pit, reminding me of
little Indians around a campfire.
