ANAYA

Made by My Cool Signs

  

People often ask what I'm shooting with, so it seems to make sense to just put it here.

The main camera I use is a Nikon D80

(I also occasionally shoot film with an old Mamiya C220, a holga 120, and a Nikon N65)

I am most often found with a macro lens (sometimes with the high def wide angle stacked on)

I also use a 70-300 which I like a lot

and, the 28-80 I had for my film camera

(the N65) works on the D80 body, and a 18-70mm

 

May 1st 2008 - I just won an auction for a

Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D lens

I do not know how I survived without this piece of glass!

I LOVE IT!!

July 1 - I am in love with Bokeh....and I just love this new lens for that very reason. F2.2 is the sweet spot!

   

Note - This was at one time an informal portfolio for me. I do post a lot of my images here, but you'll also find family snapshots, our pets, and a whole lot of flowers.

  

Thanks for looking!

She does everything right and precisely . Dont believe me? just walk over to her photostream and make your self a home and watch the magic work, she been doing. I met her not to long ago, when I 1st got my dSLR, sometime last year, like June of '07 and from there on it was all good. :) One thing I forgot to mention.. She's one funny lady..when I start reading her comments and title, its just crack me up I think everyone should get a chuckle everyday.. Hell,even my doctor said to me, if I laugh more you live longer...so, ahahaha more. . These are the type people are easily to get alone and Im getting with her pretty darn well. Once again, I'm very fortunate to meet a such caring lady in Flickr world. I wish everyone are like this, I bet we all live in peace and harmony ."

Anaya has an eye for photography that is unrivaled. Her photographs, no matter what they are of, often leave me in total awe. She has an uncanny sense of capturing the photographic beauty of whatever she sets her mind on. Just by seeing her photographs I have learned much, and every new photo is a lesson for me. In short, she is a goddess with the camera in her hands.
