What I've been up to...
« on: September 14, 2004, 07:25:06 PM »
Having sold the rig for a camera setup here are a couple of pics.  I got a Nikon D70 with the kit lens (18-70mm f3.5-5.6 ED) and a Sigma 105mm f2.8 Macro.  Need more glass (this is a lot like taping!)  ;D


















Glad I sold the rig and got a new camera rig....I'm getting so much more use and enjoyment out of the change!  ;D

I was thinking that if your eye is as sharp as your ear, your new "tapes" would be really nice... 

And they are!  Great photos!  Keep up the good work.  I use nature shots as backgrounds on my PC all the time, I'm stealing a couple of yours up top!

Good thing about photos, you can sell them to help your hobby...  Can't sell CDRs...

Great shots, there!  +T

If you haven't already, get a subscription to Outdoor Photographer.  Probably the best photo magazine I ever subscribed to, and the new subscriber rate is ridiculously low.  And yes, taking pictures is way more creative and relaxing than taping shows will ever be.  Displaying your photos is just harder, and more expensive, than popping a CD in the player.

Thanks guys and +T to you all.   :)   I needed a creative outlet of some sort and taping was not it.  I run my new "rig" almost daily.  ;D

Terry...if you or anyone else would like high resolution copies just PM me.

hey bob,
pictures look great.  i was wondering what mode are you shooting in?  raw, jpeg fine or what?  how much post processing did you do?  where did you buy your camera?  looks like i'll be buying a d70 real soon.  just sold my f100/mb-15/sb-28 part of my camera rig.  i still have the 35-70mm and 180mm lens.  i think i have enough to buy the kit.  i really like your wide angle shot of the rocks in the water.  look for some pics from me in the next week or so.

I'm Brian  :)

Always shoot in RAW (at least so far).  Processing...not much...at least I don't think so. :)

So far I love the D70.  I can do what I remember doing with my old film SLR 10 years ago and a LOT more!

I really like the kit lens for landscapes.  If ya can afford it get it! ;D

i'm very sorry, brian.  why would i think you're name is bob??  as for old flim slr.  you don't pay for bad shots with digital.  my main gripe with film is that have to pay for bad shots.  with digital, delete the bad ones and process the good ones.

sorry again brian.  that b for some reason made me think of bob :)

No problem at all on the bob thing.  :)

I agree on digi vs film.  If I was shooting film I wouldn't take a 1/10th of the pics I do now.  I often take up to a dozen shots of the same "picture" so that I'll have the image I want in the end.  I usually bracket at 3 different f stops....something I would never do with film.


As for deleteing the "bad" ones..............I've taken about 2000 pics in the last month......and maybe 30-40 are keepers with maybe 6 I'd consider hanging on a wall.  :P
