Guest Guest Posted January 22, 2006 I dropped my 50 f/1.4 about a week after I bought it, fortunately I managed to break it's fall with my foot - no damage! (to the lens) Link to comment
aepelbacher 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Sorry, Ben - no membership for you. Now, don't you go trying to get into our club. You won't like it! Link to comment
nicholasprice 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Hello Colin This is superb, and unmistakably your work! Wonderful, and menacing in B&W - I salute you - 7/7 Regards, Nick. Link to comment
alberto.conde 0 Posted February 2, 2006 But, first, I support 100% the earlier comment on this wonderful shot!.I dropped, with my camera and tripod, while framing one of my castles. it was my fault for not being shod with the adequate shoes. My 28-105 Nikkor AF was badly damaged (I still have it, unrepaired). Bought a new one to lose it, finally, with the rest of my equipment, "thanks" to a professional hotel robber who took it from my hotel room last November...Now I have bought a Nikon D-200 for my castles and landscapes and a Contax G1 second hand for my B&W street and portrait shots. You are the welcome guest to my latest shots with this new gear. Link to comment
colin carron 58,916 Posted February 2, 2006 Alberto, thanks ! I think you should probably become the first chairman of the club with all the sad tales of breaking your lenses and then having it all stolen. Still three cheers for insurance and may your new gear bring you even finer images than the last. regards - Colin Link to comment
aepelbacher 0 Posted February 3, 2006 I agree!! Alberto ought to become the club's reigning president!! Hey, wait a minute ... Alberto, didn't you have a car accident and some injuries while driving to a spot to take pictures? Well, if that's so, you ought to get lifelong presidency!! Link to comment
wilsontsoi 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Holy schmoly! Didn't realize this thread turns into a Photo.Net Historical Archive and a debut of PEDA (Photographic Equipment Dropper Association.) I'll wait for e-mail notice on next committee meeting . . . ^_^ Link to comment
harnstrom1 0 Posted February 5, 2006 Amusing shot and very nice in B&W. Well, the EF 1,8/50mm II shouldn't qualify. You only need to look at it and it will fall apart in two parts. An L-lens ought to manage worse handling. Sorry about your 70-200mm, real bad luck. Regards J O Link to comment
thierrylaflamme 0 Posted June 21, 2006 Brilliant work Colin! Rich details with stunning depth of field. I also like this peculiar animal in the foreground. Link to comment
dan_cr 0 Posted November 6, 2006 I enjoy how you captured an interesting architectural detail and the expansive interior space in one image. Very nice. Very clever. Cheers! Link to comment
lucyhollis 2 Posted January 22, 2007 I haven't noticed that little guy before. I'll keep an eye out for him and his friends next time I visit the Museum! The monkey really lightens the mood of the otherwise austere atmosphere. Link to comment
