Very nice Leighton It seems the D7000 is now gathering dust
Have you used the 28-50 on the D600 I would like to see some photos with that Landscape and your regular stuff
Maybe you have already and I just missed them

Thanks Reagan, in fact, the D7000 is on ebay right now. It was a tough decision selling it, but I just didn't think I'd use it enough to justify keeping it.

I have used the 28-50 a little, I'm planing on using it some more tomorrow at the market, photos to follow.

Thank you Mihai, it has become one of my favorites now.

I love this image of yours. Is that your truck in the last one?

Philip, interesting shot of your wife. Forgive my ignorance: what's the "Brenizer method"?

Thanks Mihai! It's really just a panorama with a fast telephoto (usually) lens, and the wedding photographer Ryan Brenizer popularized it: http://www.ryanbrenizer.com/category/brenizer-method/.

It's a way to emulate medium or large format, by having a narrower depth of field with a wider field of view that you normally can achieve using FX lenses. When it works well it can be quite impressive, there are lots of examples at the link above.

Beautiful fall day in OshVegas. Cool and drizzle. I love it. I went downtown to see what was happening. I found Kyle the Truevalue dude loading up the floor cleaner into a customer's van...

Kyle and he floor cleaner in the rain...

Thanks Leighton... no... it was parked in the front of a village restaurant where we dined out Saturday night.

Very interesting Philip. I'll read carefully that post. Thanks for sharing the link and the knowledge!

Nope. He was just standing there playing with the disk while waiting for the customer.
I wish he wouldn't have been looking at the camera

Mihai, thanks and I share your passion for the 55/1.2. That's a wonderful set you've posted.
The "steering-wheel" is the best-looking Dacia-picture I've ever seen :-)

Leighton, love your sunflower-shot! The 105/2.5 delivers again in your hands!

Monty, great portrait of Kyle! Perfect B&W!

Tony, marvelous work at the winery!

Philippe, poor doggie should wear a helmet too :-) Fantastic snap!

Kevin, amazing work! "Iced tea reflections" is a spectacular image - wonderfully done!

Dylan, that's another fantastic set. You should really think about a possible book-project.

Philip, cool bokeh-rama!

I've never thought too highly of my own work. While I enjoy it myself, I never thought it would appeal to an audience broad enough to justify publication. Thank you very much for your encouragment. I think Leighton was the first to say that I should start thinking of a book, and a few people have repeated it since, and now you.

I am going to start looking at what I do in a different light. Maybe there is an audience...if so, I would have never known if it weren't for the fantastic people in this thread.

I know I am relatively new here still, but I love you guys and gals.

Monty, I love that shot of Kyle. His nametag, all askew, makes the photo for me.

Georg, that first one is really nice. Can I ask why part of his jacket is lighter than the rest? Doesn't look like flare to me, there is a distinct line through the jacket.

Thanks Dylan, it's flare indeed. I should find a suitable sun-shade for my loved 55/1.2...

I just came home, and saw that photo, reminded me of one that I took years ago.
It was called 'doggy bag' at first and I took it while riding my bike.
Taken with a D70 and an 18-200 VR, so I'm not bale to post it here, but here's the link.

I'm still to busy to comment or post, very sorry about that, but at least I can look at your posts every now and then
