First Robins - never mind the foot of snow - spring is coming - soon - really it is. But not this week or next. Knee Deep in Snow ... how does that feel Mr. Robin? I see ....

Looking harder at the 20mm primes, either the Nikkor 1.8 or Sigma's new Artsy 20 1.4. Price is close enough at about a grand. Obviously the Siggy is a stop faster (or is that a full stop?) But apparently not as sharp at 1.4 as 1.8 - but nice to be able to open it up just a little more when...

And a Merry Easter to you too. This is why the Easter Bunny is white wearing his winter fur - if Easter was meant to be green the Easter Bunny would be brown - right?

size does not matter

A Mountain Bluebird - or at least this is a blue bird that was shot in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.

The title sold me - that and being on sale for half price. And my latest effort at phoDOGraphy - this tiny Yorkie is a challenge - full of energy, never sits still and just try focusing on those hidden eyes.

The Yorkie lives by the motto "Size does not matter" These two actually get along well .

Shot with Tamron 17-35mm and D610

I see Henry's of Toronto has a 14mm used on sale for a bit over a grand (CDN$) which is in the ball park of a new 20mm Siggy 1.4. The 15mm or 16mm Fisheyes (Sigma and Nikon respectively) can be found on line for in that same ballpark. I have lensbaby all manual circular fisheyes. Both are...

She's taking a picture of me taking a picture of her. I was 'shooting from the hip" without looking. This is one of my staff at a outdoor Easter kids party. She is the one I bought that Nikon 1 for - she isn't into photography but seems to like the Nikon 1 so much she asked me where I got...

I'm lusting after a new lens - birthday comes up next month - and there is a camera show between now and then. .... My current widest is an older Tamron 17-35, 2.8-4.0 lens. It works, and works well enough. No I don't need a new ultra-wide. I just want one. But I'm looking at adding a...

Love my 200-500 for birding, but next time I go out to shoot this pup - I think I'll go with something not quite so long and/or not on my D7100, but nevertheless, it got the job done, even with bright backlighting. This pup is airborne to get her treats.

The birds are back in the backyard - spring must not be far off - but it is only April so not time to take off the snow tires just yet.

Just about ...

First walk by the local lake this year - just last week we had too much snow to get to the lake - now there is some open water and a few of the birds have arrived, ... not many, but the early bird gets the ... no, wait, no worms yet, ground is still frozen.

Prices not yet released .... This is what my Papa was referring to when he said "If you have to ask the price - you can't afford it" Nikon D5 and D500 100th anniversary sets to be announced next week | Nikon Rumors Add this to my lottery dreams

Lensbaby Dbl Glass Optic with 5.6 aperture ring on D610 Abandoned barn near Two Hills Alberta

St Mary's Ukrainian-Greek Orthodox Church - a very country church miles from nearest village. Incomplete exif as this is a Lensbaby Composer Pro + double glass optic - 5.6 disk used - D610.

Not exactly a purchase - Lensbaby sent me a free set of Aperture Disks when I bought that set of refurbished optics that did not come with their original disks. Great customer service.
