I was fortunate to visit Muir Woods last week with the family. Amazing place. HDR created with Photomatix Pro.

From Slickdeals: eBay Daily Deal. Refurbished camera, lens, wireless adapter and case.

We were traveling light this day as we were on the legendary 17 Mile Drive near Carmel-by-the-Sea. This is the iconic Lone Cypress at Pebble Beach.

Just returned from the annual family trip that includes attending at least one professional baseball game in a new stadium. I was pretty pumped to try out my V2 with the 1 NIKKOR VR 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 at a ball game. This year was SoCal to watch the terrible Phillies in Los Angeles and San...

Reaching out to any SoCal folks. I'm going to be in the Huntington-Newport-Laguna beach area for July 4th with the family and looking for recommendations for best spots for fireworks. I've been heads down in a datacenter move (just finished day 1 of 3 and too wired to sleep) and haven't had much...

Forgot I took this one purposely for this thread when I was in Copenhagen last month!

It was drizzling when I saw this wall of foliage. I decided on HDR to try to capture the slickness of the leaves and depth of color. Processed with Photomatix Pro.

Didn't see that this was previously posted. Tamron is running a mail in rebate deal in the US right now. I can attest that the rebates were paid quickly when I bought my 24-70 and 70-200. More info here.

I finally had an opportunity to use the Think Tank TurnStyle 20 for an extended period and wanted to update the thread and review. I used the bag over an 11 day straight period and came away extremely impressed. Positives: On previous similar trips I had used a camera backpack but found the...

My wife and I were in Copenhagen a couple weeks ago. This was her first extended use of her new J4 with the kit 10-30mm PD-Zoom lens. The PD-Zoom is much better than the original 10-30mm and is a convenient walk-around focal length at 27-81mm FX equivalent. Below are a few examples - my favorite...

We spent a rainy day earlier this week in Průhonický Park just outside of Prague and I captured this HDR.

Not the most spectacular sunrise but how often do you get to enjoy it on the Charles Bridge in Prague? All captured with a Tamron 24-70/2.8 or 70-200/2.8.

Before I left Prague this morning, I went to the Charles Bridge at sunrise. I was pissed to see this gaggle of photographers acting as if they owned the bridge. The reason for the post is to gently remind each other to be a bit more aware of the impact and impression we leave as photographers...

Reconnected with a friend who is a tour guide and arranged for private tour inside the world famous Strahov Library. Simply beautiful. Very happy with my Sigma too.

I have shot this scene before and it never gets old.

Taking full advantage of all 12mm of my Sigma 12-24mm. Cropped, manually straightened in LR CC.

Tough shot facing into the sun. The only hope to capture it was HDR. Five shot bracket using a Tamron 24-70/2.8 rendered with Photomatix Pro.

Once again I was really pleased with the Tamron 24-70 yesterday... :rolleyes:

Pretty interesting Kickstarter called QromaScan which combines software with a LED lightbox to scan prints. The app uses voice control to tag your images and build EXIF. Neat idea and I did back it in Kickstarter-speak. More info here.

I received my lightly used copy of the 1 NIKKOR VR 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 on Friday. My initial impressions were holy cr*p is it big. Second reaction was a big freaking grin on my face when I mounted it on my wife's J4 and started focusing. Wow, wow, wow. What a focal range: 189-810mm FX equivalent...
