[QUOTE="hark, post: 649557, member: 13196"] I've been trying out a pre-owned Nikon 28-70mm f/2.8 (wanting something for my Fm2n), but the exposure is inconsistent. I had to keep turning the +/- button up and down trying to nail something usable but am guessing the aperture blades are sticking once in a while. Meh. It will be sent back. I had 30 minutes to kill unexpectedly yesterday afternoon in an area I'm not familiar with, but when I drove past this Garden Center, I decided these trees were too unique to miss. I did ask for permission to photograph them just in case the garden center might be opposed. The lady was very nice and said I definitely wasn't the first to want to take photos. ;) [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]274164._xfImport[/ATTACH] These are real trees planted into the ground.
