Overhead Gull

Now and then I like to slum it and use some of the ancient gear I have either aquired or hung on to. For me, it is just a different experience, and I believe nice images can be made with pretty much any gear.

 

On this occasion I decided to bring out the old full frame Nikon D700 with a 28-105mm D lens from 1999, which is a nice walkabout lens. Now at 12.1 MP. 92mm is not ideal to shoot a bird in flight, but, still I tried, and was very happy with this shot. Not much for detail or sharpness but I liked the light on the gull and the few clouds.
