Out Walking Last Weekend

Came across this lovely old bench just waiting to be photographed. Only had the 105 f2.8 VR with me which was ideal for the subject. f5.6 @ 1/400 ISO 200.

D200 Revisited

I decided to play around with a couple of D200 images from a few years ago and found that the B+W approach suited them very well. Both taken with the D200 and Sigma 10-20 Zoom.

Nikkor 50mm f1.8

The Nikkor 50mm f1.8 standard lens take a bit of beating price/quality-wise. This was taken at f2.8 to give just a little more DOF than the maximum aperture allows. With this kind of informal portrait you take what you can get and put up with "distractions". Going for formal portraits with this subject would be a nightmare!

Lenses

Started a NEW PAGE on Nikkor Lenses in my bag starting with the 16-35mm f4 VR Nikkor.

Posting a picture


This image was taken on my D700 with 16-35mm Nikkor Zoom on a recent Balloon Trip on Alan's 60th Birthday. Thanks to Alan for asking me along.

Beginning!

I'm new to this so this will be a test of what I can and can't do.

I'm going to try to write a little regularly on Nikon Equipment and Nikon Software - NX2.
