Grey and wet around here, a couple from the card download today, probably collected over a one week span. Continued good work everyone, enjoy looking at the slices of life around the world.

Welcome to the Particle, nice shot Monty.
Phillipe, applause again at the street photography pics
aRod, continued well wishes for your family and daughter
"Leighton in Paris" put a big smile on my face!
Georg, your work continues to inspire, I esp like the "quick snap on the way to the car"
Jorge "Money for Beer" is a blast

Ray

Great looking images Ray, I particularly like the second one with the cameras.

Ray from Ohio, that's a beautiful set! I like all pictures, each is very good in it's own way.
There's just one complaint from my side: I wanna see the Ricoh TLR in all it's glory!!!
I'm just kidding - nice to see another photographer with a passion for vintage TLR's

Ray from Florida: beautiful work with your 35/1.4! I like especially the 1st shot.

Leighton, love your take on the landscape - I like the vintage look of your B&W-conversion a lot.

Bert, the hazy barn is wonderful - what kind of trees are in front of it?

Rafael, thanks for sharing the analogue sunset! I don't know if a retro-DSLR would sell so well.
I for my part would like to play with one, but I wouldn't spend a big plus just for looks.
On the other hand, if looks and performance are so nice combined like in the Fuji X100 - why not ;-)

Here's a shot of part of the village I live near. It once was a thriving town, back in the 1800's.

Leighton - I thought it was semi-rural, but those houses seem very close together? How far is that from where the market is?

Ben, the houses you see are in the village, which we are right out side of, but within walking distance. There's around 213 people that live there. We are 12 miles south of where the market is located in the city of Staunton, which has a population of between 25,000 and 30,000. It is VERY rural around here with farmland all around us.

That would make a nice Nikon MF Commune

Hi guys, I actually got an afternoon off this week that didn't include a trip to a doctor or a treatment center. Brandon had a Holiday Party in St. Louis so we drove him up and had some fun for a few hours. He and Santa discussed his list he brought with him. There are very few things that come along with his disease, however it has kept his childhood innocence around so that these special moments still happen even at 15. D4 and 35MM F1.4

Sorry to interrupt you guys, but it seems best place to ask.

How good is Nikkor 28mm f2 Ai on APS-C digital?

Not much high-res digital (something like 10-12 mpix). If anyone has some nice sample, would love to see it.

Thank you very much for answers.

Thank you very very much. Seems I will soon join this MF Nikkor Glass club.

I hope.. Btw. how does it look wide-open?

Here are some 28/2 shots on a D200.

Thanks Leighton for your hard work!

What can I say? Romania shows a great interest in Nikon MF glass and particularly in Nikki's adventure! :-)

I do love the fog for pictures as well. Not so much a fan when it comes down to driving in it though

This was the 28 3.5 PC, used the shift function to get a higher perspective. Might be at f8.
