We just got back home from the weekend "gallivant" that always follows our Friday in Carlisle. The weather was absolutely beautiful this year—here's what we saw: https://www.flickr.com/photos/j3studio/albums/72157657975281011 |

Great pics, John - I'm pretty sure you should have one of those red Z06 convertibles ;-)

Agreed, great pictures. As for the Red Z06, does the back tire look odd to anyone else? Almost like the front and rear tires had been swapped.

A few more thoughts...
The red Z06 roadster is HOT. I love that colour. The C2 Grandsport with the Storm Trooper driving belongs to a friend of mine. He and his wife live in the Space Coast area of Fla and I see them every year at Sebring. The pic of the restaurant is excellent. I love the light capture. Really sets a mood. |

I am so in love with the low light performance of the newer DSLRs... It is an area I have been wanting to explore, but it was very hard to do, even with film.
I took some photos for my former neighbours wedding (back in DE). I was shooting when the flash died... crap... I then had to resort to super slow shutters and wide open f-stops. 30th of a second and f2.8 and no zoom. Some of them came out SO real. I was stoked. One pic had the bride lighting candles, and the groom peaking around the door. The room was ambient, with only some incandescence and the candles. The house was older with dark varnished wood trims and a burnt yellow/mustard coloured paint in semi-flat... but the way that image came out was sooo National Geographic - short of the topless women - the light was so alive and in all the right places and not too overpowering nor so very dark you couldn't see it. The colour cast was from the walls and very natural tones of the room, yet the candles glowed. I think I have a copy of that pic at home... I hope I do. I learned a lot that day and have been working for that again, but couldn't get there with the D200. Like your Df, the D810 is insane in that light. BTW, I was shooting with my Nikon FM2 35mm SLR that day. An absolute joy to shoot with. 4000th shutter and flash sync at 125th sec (IIRC). All manual. The lens was (is) a Soligor 28-80 zoom with a variable macro feature. |

The Committed To Color car was my favorite. It made imagine just how great Corvettes can look in other brilliant colors. Attach file: BH.jpg (27.72 KB) |
