Not having had the chance to get out and stretch my legs 'proper ' for a whole week, the weather didn't look too promising so I took my compact camera and went for a short but exhilarating walk not too far from home and to the same spot on Swansea Beach as I went a week ago. I would have stayed out longer but the heavens opened so we came home. Still .....if nothing else it boosted the endorphin levels no end .
No big plans, just wandering about
Rubber ducks seemed to be the new fad, there were several shops which only sold those.
I first heard about this legendary lens in 2006, just as I was really getting serious doing photography. I was 20 and it was way out of my price range, and why would anyone want an old manual focus lens? The allure of this special lens and the way it renders the light the passes through it is just something special. I’ve kept my eye on the pricing of this lens since then. I’ve read countless blogs about how it is so special...I just couldn’t ever convince myself to pull the trigger and buy one.
Then one day this July I was reading a blog post about this lens, one I’d read 100 times before and I thought I’d check the prices. On eBay they were all going for what I was expecting and I thought to myself I’d check KEH Camera a very reputable used gear seller. To my surprise, they had one in stock. It was about ¼ less than what they were going for on eBay and KEH rated this one as “bargain” quality.
If you’ve ever bought from KEH you’ll know that their ratings are VERY generous. I thought I’d take the chance and if it was in poorer condition I’d send it back with their generous return policy. The lens arrived, glass in perfect condition, and a single scrape on the metal lens barrel, other than that it was in perfect condition.
So I kept it, and have just fallen in love with this lens. I’m so glad it lived up to all the hype and I love the images I’ve taken with it so far. I look forward to the ones I haven’t taken yet. This is one of those lenses I’ll never sell or part with.
This was from a little hike we took last summer. I had this roll of film loaded in the Minox for a long time. A little over a year, I think, before developing it early this year.
This trail was out in Hobb's State Park. We rather enjoyed the hike. It was a bit of a long climb going back to the car, but pretty mild overall.

My film camera collection is rapidly accepting examples of early digital cameras. I am a Canon shooter, have been for decades. So, naturally, that's where I began. I come across many other brands of digital cameras as I search antique and thrift stores. All are welcome.
Photographically the shadow here really interested me when I found these long lost files.

As mentioned on my first upload today, my interest in flying goes way back. I have been fortunate to take lessons in the Cessna 182, the Piper Warrior and this ultralight Jabiru. Unfortunately cost was a major factor in my never getting a private pilot's license. Not so much the cost of learning, but the ongoing costs involved in maintaining minimum flying hours. It is an expensive hobby. But I'll never pass up the opportunity for a flight.
Jabiru is an Australian aviation success story.
This photograph was taken in February 2011 with my Panasonic DMC-FS7 compact camera.
This photo was taken from a campground full of childhood memories. It's one of those cool places that transcends time. It's not only a place of fond early memories for my brother and I, but also for my dad and his siblings. Visiting this summer with him and my Aunt brought back a lot of pleasant memories of my grandparents and time spent camping here.
It also made for a beautiful few photos, as well. As always, the Rocky Mountains provide beauty in abundance.

I often watch the alpenglow on the mountains from my home. On this drive home, I was in the mountains during that magical time of day.
