Day 221 - August 9th, 2013....
TGIF Day! Also, continue to build the Ark Day! Rained buckets all day long... was not getting anything outdoors unles I risked drowning
Result was, I had to try and be creative...
I started in the plant ... customer owned gage on my desk (due for calibration)
Test adaptor for a small threaded part ....
Luer Taper Gage (for medical) and a bucket of runners (plastic that is ejected from the system that fills a mold)
Opened the truck door long enough to snap the rainwater washing away sand & gravel..
Water on the glass deck table when I got home...
After dinner the rain stopped, went out on the deck and snagged these....
Have fun shooting.. no matter the weather!!

Pat, that must have been one hefty spider if you saw it carrying dishes in.

Yes, but that was part of a planned shoot Roy... I doubt she will get into it, she likes her little point & shoot!

I am working on getting my wife to love my D5100 more than she likes her Coolpix so she will take it away from me so I can get a D7000.
Great shots by the way.

Thanks Don! You may have trouble getting her away from that Coolpix... they are so simple to use and do a fine job!

I really loved my Coolpix S3100. Chris had to do a lot of talking to get me to upgrade to the D5100, but not so much talking to upgrade to the D7100. What a guy!!

Pat, I love the photos, I really do. I think these pics are one of your best in composition and in presentation as well.

Day 223 - August 11th, 2013.... Part 2
This afternoon, I went back out, this time to the nearby town of Londonderry...
Again, using the Tokina WA but this time attached to my D7100!
The first 3 shots were taken at a small town square....
This clocktower was up the road at the town High School...
I saw this station on the way out, liked the red and white so stopped on the way back.
One of the firefighters came out and we chatted a bit, very nice, he even offered to pull out
equipment if I wanted. I did a 5 shot bracket 1.0 for this HDR. Wanted teh shadow detail
in the Engine bays.
Also noticed a large spot in the sky (repaired it) and it was in a couple other sky shots.
I removed the lens, locked up mirror and blew off the sensor with a Giottos Rocket.
I followed that up with a Camera activated sensor clean and ran out and did some test shots.
"all gone"

Day 223 - August 11th, 2013.... Part 3...
Sitting home, processing photos and my wife hollers that we have turkeys... Looking out the window, there was a flock of about 20 in the back by the woods... I opened the window and grabbed a few shots with the D5100 and the 55-330 lens.
Thats it folks, I PROMISE, no more today!
