Frank was the star of the show, and Erik was our rock.

you nailed it. There is always two to a rock and roll .... I am more of a rolling stone than a resting one like yourself.

Thank you Dave. You done us more than we deserved.

PS: It is so difficult to be polite. Erik did a great job teaching me, but I am a hopeless case it seems. After all I learned that Danish English, German Englisch and French Englich are different languages and that the result of politeness can be that dremels stay unused in cars and lenses stay unchipped...

Erik, I love the way you are using that lens. Amazing, brave, creative. Please, keep them coming!

Small things from the woods.
From a relaxing walk in the wood with Dave before driving back home.

Photo Walking Sally and Rainbows

I have kept the tiny raindrops and the small rainbows they create - only visible if you go to the Flicker image I guess,,,

More fisheye (Sigma 8/3.5) in the woods.
Not as dramatic as Erik's 6mm, but much easier to handle.

And the second one is how it's done.

Sally does not understand.

Erik and Chris,

There many photographs here which are really wonderful. I must admit however, that the Fisheye images are truly stunning. You gentlemen, really know how to use these lenses.

Chris, What is the angle of view of the Sigma lens? I assume that one could NOT use the Nikon lens as shown with you lying on the ground since it is a 220 degree lens. In the mountains behind our home, there are some wonderful stands of tall, perfectly white Aspen trees which have a brilliant orange-yellow foliage in the fall. I tried you approach with my 14-24 Nikkor but it didn't come our like yours.

Thanks to everyone for posting these really wonderful images. I really like the shots, of Erik taking the Kayak pictures at Glencoe and then the resulting photos which he took. Nice to see what is happening.

this is good viewing and reading.

The harvest from this week is looking good.
Let me start with a few impressions from the Highlands. As Simone Tomasi already recounted, we did an extensive hike last Sunday. It was really great to have the light and excellent 300 PF with me to shoot some detailed shots of distant things.
The last one is a three-shot pano of soft grass and moss against the background hills.
