<p>Well, this would appear to be mild abuse but in fact is the opposite. Elwood is 5 lbs lighter this week. He gets two haircuts a year. I wait in the spring until the annual black fly scourge has ended and before swimming season begins and then I get the scissors out. We spent 6 hours together getting the bulk off but the light failed and we had to complete it the next day. Here are some before and after shots.</p><div></div>

<p>While Lex is putting Nikon glass on his fudgie, I have been trying some Canon glass on my D7000. Here is a lily through the 300 2.8 SSC Fluorite from the mid 70's. There is an adapter in between with glass that allows infinity focus, I need to do more testing to see how much it degrades the image quality.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday everyone. I'm a little late this week, it's my son's high school prom this evening. Might post some pics next week :-)</p>

<p>Great photos as usual. I really liked your wood borer graffiti shot Lex and your slow shutter fairground shot Georges.</p>

<p>My first shot is one of my daughter throwing a stick for the dog who loves swimming in the sea....</p><div></div>

<p>Chris--love the kitty pix! Both are very charming! Looks as if they've found "cat heaven" at your place. Thanks for taking them in--<br>

<p>The summer is finally here, and the plums provided a good opportunity to test 58/1.4:<br>
