    Just fooling around today

    Actually, it's just a square piece of reflective insulation used to wrap forced air ducts. I use it as a reflector. Here's a wider shot of what I was using to shoot: And this is what I was shooting earlier: I was practicing some backlighting techniques on the inoperative D40 that I picked...

    On a photo shoot

    Thought I'd throw this shot in here, taken by one of the participants at an RC helicopter flying field. I was taking a break when he rushed over and wanted to take a shot of the field photographer.....me. :) I'm dressed in my best vagabond/hobo-wear! ;)

    I love my 18-105. I don't consider it a kit lens, though, as I bought it separately because I wanted it and knew it was a great lens to have. Here is a small example of what this lens does for me.

    Filter cases

    Rick, I have a filter case that you can have. It will fit your 67mm perfectly. Just say the word and I'll send it off to you. :) This is what I'm using now for my 67's. A leather case that holds 3 filters.

She had bought a new D5100 for herself instead. OK...on to the problem I'm having. I charged the battery...
