December 5th, Chouchoune our lovely cat had to fill the model role for my today's pic D700 50 1,8 @1,8 iso 2500, 1/60s

Nice shot. It would make a very nice square crop...:)

Congratulations to these participants. MoabMan gqtuazon Kim20 Sambr siamthai1 for winning the November Composition Assignment. The selection was difficult and more shots could easily have been chosen too, but we had to restrict to 5 shots. ​Thanks to all participants. I hope you...

December 4th piano persons of the day. These two are kind of special to me because both pianos were restored by myself. They are now living in another town but the owners still want me to take care of them. Chickering built in 1906, restored in 1986 (new soundboard, cabinet refinishing, the...

December 3rd second and third piano person of the day. I've concentrated on uprights just so Jeff doesn't think I'm prejudiced ;) What amazes me is the high iso quality of these digital marvels. These were both done at iso 2500 with the D700 and 35mm f2 AIs @f2.8, shutter speed 1/100 for the...

December 3rd first piano person of the day.

Here's another shot salvaged from yesterday's walk by the river. I was in a rush yesterday so I didn't have time to look at all files. So, instead of a squirrel, here's a couple of ducks. Still with D7000 and 300, hand held at 1/200s... A little iffy but it did help that the shutter was set in...

Dec 1st. Although I hate squirrel pics, this is all I have to show for today's walk Handheld D7000 with 300 AF f4 1/125s...

Third and last entry:

Nov 30th's river pics. Early morning light hitting the just frozen river. ​Both images with D600, 16-35 F4 VR.

November 29th, all taken with D700 and 35mm manual focus f2 AI lens. Here's a picture I took last night while walking to a restaurant with Line. Seems the holiday spirits are strongly advertised... Not food, but drinks for thoughts :) And two shots I took when I went for work in the...

Nov 28th, we got snow and these snowflakes had thawed and froze on this little branch by the river.

But it's an OK day to work and do some more piano person's portraits: ​

Nov 27th. Well, as this picture will show you, it's NOT a great day for landscape...

Here's my second entry:

Nov 24th, Cold, really cold, -4 F felt with wind chill factor. So the cat gets to model again and falls asleep while doing the studio session... D700, 28-80 3.3-5.6 at 80mm 5.6, iso 1250, 1/25s hand held, processed with iPhoto since I forgot my MacBookAir at home. ​

November 21st, Piano person with her favorite piano and her favorite idol pianist on the wall: Two shots taken of the sunset on the river when I got back from work. One exposure with water-colour filter 2 exposures HDR

November 20th, the day went by and I didn't have a single shot taken. So the cat had to do. A little bit of filtering to hide the grain and softness of iso 4000 and a too slow shutter speed, wrong lens (35mm was the only one I had with me) distorted the perspective a little too much to be...

November 19th's piano person of the day. I've got 2 different crops and pics. The square crop I had to do because his shirt was puffing in the back and it looked like a hump. I'm not sure which one I prefer for now so I post the two and you can give me your preference. I had forgotten that I had...

November 18th. Kind of appropriate for a fall afternoon, feeling down since a dear cousin of mine died at 49 saturday while cycling. Major hearth failure... So these represent my actual mood: ​
