    Long Lens ... which one to dream about

    Here are a few shots taken with my new-to-me vintage Tamron 200-400 F5.6 All hand held. Tripod would probably improve the image. One was HDR'd - others minor touch-ups. Hope the EXIF comes through. Had some HDR fun with this one. Original was at F/8 at 320mm The deer where taken in...

    Low light, short exposure

    Sitting in a hotel room with not much to do looked out at the snow falling under a parking lot light. Left the tripod in the truck and thought no way I can shoot that. But then thought I should see just how high can I go with this ISO on my D610. I had my new-to-me vintage Tamron 200-400 F5.6...

    Post Your Bridges HERE

    + One of the pleasures I had while touring Scotland in 2001 was to see and photograph this bridge in Montrose A drawing of that bridge had hung on a wall in my home when I was young. Sadly it was poorly stored. I took a picture of the current state of the drawing, I'd like to get it...

    The Devil Cat Yes I do have a proper flash or two, the pop-up just popped up and when I looked at the shot I thought, rather than correct that red eye lets enhance it. That cat fits that look.

    Post Your Bridges HERE

    Some pictures taken with my F60 while in Scotland in 2001. Would have been either the Nikkor 28-85 kit lens or my Siggy 100-300. These are scans of prints - in those days I was an "auto-everything" shooter. We were there three weeks, I brought home 600 images, I thought I had taken a ton of...

    Vintage Primes - recommendations for the frugal photographer

    Well did a few more parrot portraits - just love a model that does not complain - too much. And sharpness counts when looking at bird feathers. Used my 70-200mm lens set to MF for most of the testing switched back to AF for some comparison shots. It is a skill that needs to be developed. I...

    Vintage Primes - recommendations for the frugal photographer

    Was sorely tempted to bid on a Nikon 100mm F 2.8 MF lens down by dBay today - let it go. It sold for $80 (with 15 minutes to go it was about $50 - always the last few moments that count). Looked at a 200mm "1:4" (not listed by F?). And a 135mm F3.5. All are manual. I found an chart on...

    Post your latest purchases.

    Bought a bag of bags from the orient. When I measured my new-to-me vintage Tamron 200-400 for it's bag I forgot to factor in the tripod collar. Yes I can un-mount it but that would be a pain. So it "almost" fits. Picked up some more of these Neoprene lens bags by Martin. Provides nice...
