    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    hark, Even with the peeling paint, I prefer the original because, well, it's the original. It's the same if they tear down an old historic building when it could have been restored, I'm not going to like the old one being gone. But it's not mine, so I have no say in it. WM

    Well, it is only photography related in that I could have purchased a D5, and had enough left over to pay this month's credit card bill and still had change. It's for my son, a junior in high school. He also plays piano, clarinet and the bagpipes. Suddenly, photography equipment takes a...

    Think You've Had A Bad Day?

    If so, I hope it's not as bad as this guy has had: No Cookies | The Advertiser :( It sounds like it might not be the last episode like this we hear of, either. However, it appears that the thief was no rocket scientist, and is also having a bad day: Robbed Olympics Photographer Spots Thief...

    D750m back to Nikon?

    I've really been working the D750 I purchased earlier this year lately, and I have noticed a trend; I'm getting a lot of photos that are back-focused. And the less available light, the worse the problem seems to be. I've calibrated my AF Fine tune and the camera consistently requires an AF...

    I got two of these sets last week; one for the MacBook Pro and one for the iMac. I definitely see a speed improvement over the original configurations, especially on the MacBook Pro. I'm now running the MacBook Pro at 16 GB instead of 4 GB, and the iMac at 24 GB instead of 8 GB. WM

    Milky Way question

    Well, I can now add getting kicked out of a National Park to my list of life achievements!! Our local photo club had a caravan out to the Gulf Islands National Seashore last night, and immediately after we arrived in the parking lot, were met by a Park Ranger who wanted to know what we were...

    Post your Firework Photos

    I went to one of the local "weekly" fireworks events and took the D750 with the 28mm. I was there early, and had every thing set up and had some folks stop and ask what I was doing. They had no idea you could photograph fireworks without a flash! LOL!! Well, somewhere along the line, I...

    Post your Firework Photos

    After saying I wouldn't be going into Destin until after the Summer tourist season is over (Labor Day weekend), I have a confession; I went tonight. I mentioned the fireworks and that I wanted to photograph them sometime to my wife, she encouraged me to go. So I did, and the trip that takes 25...

    Old Habits Die Hard (or maybe not at all)

    I had a shoot on Thursday, and didn't even think about taking my new D750.... I just grabbed the D700 and a few lenses and headed out the door. It was only after I got to the game that it even dawned on me that I should have at least brought the new camera. Has anyone else done this before...

    An AC-130 flyby. We were having dinner outside and this plane was flying touch & goes, so we got to see it several times. The sky was overcast, as you might recognize. WM

    Let's see some reptiles...

    This anole has a spot at my parent's house where it has camped out and keeps it bug free for the most part. Where it has taken up is a spot where we usually find many other anoles, so I expect the it will get competition soon. In addition, this is the first photo from my D750 posted on...
