Since I am the only Microbiologist in the entire hospital I stay very busy and I am having to work every other weekend which really bites. But there are some nice scenic areas up here this time of year. There has been a lot of rain here in the last week or so the brooks and creeks have a lot of...

I have not broken out the camera gear but it will be soon. There is a tremendous amount of things to shoot up here both on digital and film. The leaves are beginning to turn and I plan on heading up to Pittsburg NH to get as many shots as I can of the moose. It is the rut season and they will...

They are ok for "Store Bought" ones I guess. Personally I prefer 100% USDA Choice All Natural ones myself! This was my very close second favorite shot of that photo session, again NSFW. This one was later in the day so I used fill flash to open up the shadows.

Ok, here it is. I am totally done with that POS site

Ashley was a great model to work with and the sunrise shoot was a lot of fun. However it was still October and the water was a wee bit on the chilly side but she was a trooper!

I have used this site for a number of years and it has become an ever increasing PITA. Now I have to upgrade to use the [IMG] links to post here. I am done with this POS site. Anyone have any suggestions? I prefer a free site because I won't use it that often

The "Devil's Millhopper" is a natural, 120' deep limestone sinkhole here in Gainesville. The bottom remains dry for a good part of the year, but with the summer rains it floods with water. This image was taken with a 16mm full frame fisheye not long after the park opened. It does not open until...

This is the town museum in Micanopy, FL. The building was built in 1890 nothing is plumb any more!

I love the texture of old and weathered wood and fittings. These images were taken of an old and dilapidated barn outside Micanopy FL with the Nikon FTn, 50mm f/2 Nikkor H and TX. Even after 45 years that old camera and lens still deliver the goods superbly!

The negative carrier was sticking in the loading tray causing the scanner to occasionally brain cramp when it initialized. When you fed the carrier to scan a negative it would hang up and then jump and start moving again. Unfortunately no scan was possible with this happening. I took the scanner...

Man, has this park sure grown up since we took our young daughters (who are now 28 and 31) there in the late 1980's. This Park has a tremendous amount of wildlife, including a specimen of every type of Crocodile and most Alligators. There is also an open rookery for Wood Storks, Tricolor Herons...

My first serious camera was a Minolta SRT-101 back in 1972. I don't consider the Kodak 110 I had before that as a serious camera. It took me about 2 years to outgrow Minolta so I got a used Nikon FTn in 1974 and it has been Nikon exclusively (except for Hasselblad in MF) for the last 43 years.

Overall, a very successful two days out shooting. I will definitely return! Imagine about 3 acres that looked like this. I have never seen anything like this before on my 59 years on this planet.

The Decorah IA Baldie nest is a busy place once again! These chicks are named D26, D27 and D28. D25 was killed last year by a car but as far as I know D24 and D23 are still doing fine. Decorah Eagles, Ustream.TV: This is the Decorah Eagles nest, which is located just south of the city of...

There is something truly fascinating about the American alligator or the species of crocodiles. They have changed little in the last 7+ million years and are usually the alpha predators of their habitats. Their primary predators are only larger alligators or crocodiles. When you see an alligator...

It took about 5 minutes to install. It will make focusing with the beast (600mm f/4) and TC-300 mounted much easier and faster. Every bit as easy as focusing with the microprism screen in the D700. The microprism blacks out a little but the split image still works perfectly. Without the TC-300...

A lot of hiking today out on the Prairie. There are about a dozen wild horses out on the Prairie. They were a good ways off of the trail so I had to walk about a half mile through waist high marsh grass to get within shooting distance. There are also about 20 bison but they were a long way...

Which eye do you use to peer through the viewfinder and does it match your "handedness"? I am right handed, though decidedly ambidextrous after over 45 years of playing the drums but i use my left eye to peer through the viewfinder. I also shoot pistols with my left eye but rifles and shotguns...
