  2. Thanks for looking; more thanks for making time to comment. Click through to large view please.
  3. Nice job on this series, and I agree that size works - need a special room to wallpaper with them!

    The timing makes the composition, with her arms in line and his arms at the horizon. I like it.
  5. What the hell? This make no sense! The subject(s) are not related at all. And it doesn't look like they ever will relate. And the subjects are banal. Really, that first girl with what, playboy bunny-ears on her bi-phone? - how trite! Then the next one -- what a total definition of self absorbtion & shallowness - in between two other humans and located precisely between them so as not to engage either. Then there's him, not even bothering to make any pretence of excuse for ignoring every body else, he just arrogantly sits there. period. And it's all captured in one photo. by one photographer. whose vision sees it all come together.

  7. Fun, striking geometry, "A Kids's view". But maybe I'm spoiled forever!

  17. <p>1. @Rick M. :the linear pixel sharpness is only sqrt(2)=1.4 because the double population # of pixels is half vertical, half horizontal. It's a math thing...However, the lack of AA filter will also add an edge (noticeable =?)<br> 2. I'm in a position similar to the OP, in considering getting D3300 (cheapest 24 mp sensor) in addition to my D300, and, like the OP, wonder about my lenses being capable of delivering the goods.<br> 2.1 = 10-20 sigma(early) - not noted as being top of the line resolution....<br> 2.2 = 18-70 nikon - never seen evidence of anything else with this range (which suits me) being sharper on Dx<br> 2.3 = 50 mm f1.8 D - would have to manual focus on D3300, or upgrade to bigger heavier G<br> 2.4 = 70-200 sigma (latest non-macro) +(1.4 tc)- currently happy with it - usually use it f4 & beyond<br> 2.5 = 100mm sigma macro - good performer<br> 3. noise: newer sensor tech would give less high iso noise - 1 stop? 3 stops??<br> 4. dynamic range : expect better with newer tech, intertwined with pt 4 above<br> 5. ergonomics: D300 wins - even the higher weight offers more mass for steadiness.+popup flash as commander +AF fine tune, etc<br> 6. color discrimination - ??<br> 7. movie capability - not interested -yabut if it was there, I'ld probably try it... and???</p>
  18. Having taken steps to elevate herself from an indeterminite past, a contemporary citizen passes by a lurid red sign of possibly false hopes and pursues more red signs in the future with a golden retail beacon approaching heaven..... It was a lovely sunny day with a pretty redhead and a sign so I shot
  19. Don't you ever stutter when you shoot?
