Entry Number 2

Okay, so I really wanted to use my 50mm f/1.8, but I have a DX camera, so that would be bending the rules. I set my zoom to as close to 35mm as I could and off I went today. Here's entry number 1

This guy was totally still, lying there sunning himself. He was probably contemplating life and all its complexities.

Not sure which crop I like better...

Near Estes Park, Colorado taken from my wife's family cabin.

A couple of new ones.

So I'm thinking that as much as I like my 18-300mm Nikkor, I'd love a super sharp 300 for bird/wildlife/sports. There are used AF 300mm f/4 lenses in pretty good shape out there in the $600 range. (The newer AF-S version is hard to find used, and nearly as expensive as a new one when/if you can...

Yesterday at Rocky Mountain Airport. Flat light and haze made it tough, but I got a couple of okay shots.

Just wondering which you guys use, a desktop or laptop. I'm eyeing an iMac with a nice big screen, but I hate being stuck at a desk for long periods of time to edit photos. I know this is largely personal preference, but I thought I'd just throw the question out there. I'll have to upgrade my...

Just wondering if anyone else uses Graphic Converter from Lemkesoft for their photo editing. It's not the most intuitive program out there, but it seems to do what much more expensive software does for just $40. They continue to support their older versions, too, so you don't wind up with an...
