Been doing some office reorganizing, and I had to make a tough decision. After nearly two decades of sitting on my bookshelf with absolutely no use, it's time a accept that these are beyond useful. It's time to make room for something else.

Haha. Nikon D4 with 50mm f/1.8D @ ISO800, 1/60, f/1.8 (cupcake high heels and candy jars) & ISO1600, 1/40, f/2.8 (cookies).

We attended a Sweet Sixteen party. They definitely had the sweet part covered.

I haven't posted in a while. I've been enjoying lurking though. No mushrooms, but we've had little wild strawberries popping up in our lawn this year. Nikon D4, 105 mm f/2.8 @ f/16, 13s, ISO100.

I can only use what I have. I'd love to have a D850. Anyone willing to donate one, private message me and I can send you a shipping address. ;)

Apparently, I had D5 envy or something going on when I posted my photo. I don't own a D5. I've only seen a D5 in person one time, and I didn't even get to touch it. I took it with a D4.

I donated some time to a Veteran's organization. In appreciation, they gave me this cool silver coin. It was fun dealing with something so close up that's highly polished and reflective. Nikon D5 & 105mm f/2.8 @ 1/30, f/5.6, ISO100 focus stack shot with Helicon Remote (29 images) and stitched together using Helicon Focus.

A lot of athletes in front of the lens lately. Nikon D4 w/ 70-200 f/2.8 VR @ f/2.8, 1/500, ISO3200

I had similar issues a few months ago. It was a faulty USB cable in my case.

I've always suspected that I get settings mismatched and that's why I don't have much luck with 3D. I just bought this ebook, Secrets To The Nikon Autofocus System - Backcountry Gallery. It's supposed to go through everything related to the Nikon AF system on several models. I'm hoping it connects the dots, and I have better results using the different AF modes.

Last week I decided to do some black and white work. I thought I'd finally bite the bullet and figure out how I'm going to process them since Silver Efex Pro is on its deathbed. It was fun, and now it's funny since it seems that DxO is going to keep Silver Efex Pro alive and kicking. Nikon D4, 105mm f/2.8 @ f/16 1/5s ISO1600

Nice work this week as always. I finally had some time to wander around the yard. Nikon D4, 105 f2.8 @ f3.2 1/200 ISO100

Great shots to start the year off! Thanks, Patrick S. 10 fps helps a lot. I'd like to get one with the bullet just past the muzzle flash. I was having to much fun shooting the guns to shoot much with the camera though.

I think I found something interesting to shoot this week. I need to get a cable for my Pocket Wizard PlusX's so I can snap the shutter while the camera is in front of the shooter and I'm behind them in a safe position. The benefits of a dreary day... every once in a while you can catch the muzzle flash.<div></div>

Cold outside but John was heating it up indoors for us.<div></div>
