I love this photo - I really think the hair around her (her?) neck looks fantastic, in the way that it's bristling off - it reminds me of feathers!

Thanks for sharing these, Towert7.



Don't do it, though you may be tempted! It may make logical sense, but just go check out Part 1 of this on going series to see how bad it can get.

Even 10Mbit connections are brought to their knees.

Nice! I love these. I still have your last centred on my desktop!

Please more of these, in panorama! (so it fits widescreen) I have the old one centred with a black border, looks great. I think it wouldnt look as good if it fitted! Strange!

GT, I prefer the panorama version on deviantArt. In this case more is better, more sense of "place." Post it up and make Baines' day.

GTracer - that shot is gorgeous.

Upstate, I like yours too.

Here's two more from mystery vacation. The second is a good example of how my P&S shoots in low light (very poorly), but it should tip you off as to where they're taken.

This is OT, but please forgive me, this is the place where all the photography buffs hang out!

Going from the D50 kit Nikon 18-55mm lens, which new lens around $500 would provide the greatest increase in versatility? I have noticed two things shooting with the kit lens so far: More zoom would be great (birds and small animals really need longer focal lengths) and that I can only get f5.6 zoomed all they way in, and I want mooooore DOF

. I have a thing for macro shots too. Having 1:1 on a lens would also be very nice, though these more obscure lenses will have to be found online.

The Nikon 70-300mm with VR seems the best candidate, and Towert7 has already done some superb work a similar Nikon lens, so I can rest assured I won't be disappointed!

Dubai looks like a great place for a vacation. How expensive was the lodging?
