A very busy week that included some fun product shots that I am unable to show you unfortunately.

<br/>

My kids and I visited a friend who raises Friesian draft horses. One shot of my daughter:

This shot was taken at sunset and then adjusted in photoshop.

I showed you the manual K-mount Sun 24mm F2.5 I got from the fleamarket for $10 before and made some "street

snaps" with it this week. Next week I will be much more productive photo wise since we got a lot of snow yesterday

and I will go on the Swiss mountain tours and look out for some panoramic snow pictures of Zurich. St.Claus asked

me to take photos as well next friday evening so I will have plenty of Pentax fun :-)<div>00RZvt-91211584.jpg.24f1149ff7236469ebd578451e29791f.jpg</div>

Still catching up on my photos.

 

This is a shot from summit of Wright. New York State Environmental Conservation has done a good job educating the public and protecting the Alpine environment that used to get trampled on.

 

This is some Alpine Grass blowing in the wind with Algonquin, New York's 2nd highest peak in the background.

Bob,

 

The beaver meadow shot is awesome. Nice way to isolate, and catch the rainbow.

 

I'm actually off to the Mountaineer to pick up some front bails for my crampons, and do something easy like Round Mountain or Hopkins. Not expecting much scenery, so I'm just taking the ist D and a 28mm prime. Looks like it's gonna be a cold one (wind really, temp is almost balmy 25F).

 

You made my balanced rock shot seem like a smaller jump than it was...i'd say there is almost a 2 foot difference in the two heights, with a 2 foot gap? then again, it was over 2 years ago I was last up there. what focal length did you use?

 

Btw, note to self..Stop using summer windshield wiper fluid around Labor Day!! It seems that that Prestone Bug Juice freezes instantly in 18F temps, creating a nice thin translucent layer...

 

Note to self part 2: Do NOT continue spraying prestone bug juice on windshield in attempt to melt already frozen prestone bug juice film, thus forming a semi opaque layer of thick ice!

 

I actually had to pull off the road and warm my car enough to melt the ice with the defroster...then I had to find a car wash and wash the inch of built up ice off the windshield edges!!
