Today was actually awesome.
Got to sleep in, hang out with bestfriend Jack before he leaves to jet back to Sydney tomorrow night. Then have Boost chills with Megan and then my Wingman, then Josh and Sam turned up to join the fun. Followed by fish for dinner with my Wingman :)
Stay tuned for tomorrows photo!!
All my life I've been told "put a UV filter on your lens to protect it".
This weekend I get the Rocky Nook manual to the 40D (a terribly, terribly skinny book for the price.)
And there's a paragraph that says "a UV filter is not a see-through lens cap".
Basically, he says, don't use a UV filter, it throws the technology in the lens right out. It doesn't need a UV filter (or any kind of glass in front of the lens itself.)
Other than using filters for creative effects, and only if you're on the beach, a photojournalist, or at a motorcross event, should you have a filter of any kind (and this includes "skylight" filters.
So I take my faithful lens filter off and - whammo - instantly better photographs. Buttery background. Satisfying bokeh. www.flickr.com/photos/snapeverything/2793449966/sizes/l/i.... That's a 1/4 crop of the whole image, btw.
Am I imagining it?
WTF, as they say in tech parlance.... so where to now? No UV filter - ever?
Phew. Can't imagine a world without protection.
I picked this lens up from a guy on a Nikon forum. What blew me away before I even tried out the lens is what he does with the pinch caps. That is that sticky stair tread stuff you can buy and you would not believe the world of difference it makes putting cap on and taking it off especially with the hood on. Awesome idea!
Headbutting my hand. Another one of those moments when he thought I should notice him, and quit photographing the garden. ;)
Quite a lot of my leg and one of my many lens caps. Had quite a random day today; I'm gonna be kind to myself and put it down to purely the fact that I walk quickly. Could have been any number of things, but I'm going to be nice and say it was my legs and the such connected. Pigeons and squirrels, eh?
On what seemed to be an ordinary spring day, an obscure rocket with a payload of industrial lens caps somewhere in Florida, quickly jettisoning its color and booster rocket, abruptly and unexpectedly took off -- destination unknown!
Yes, I do know I've got the lens cap on! profJohn thinks I was laughing at a photo I'd already taken when he took this. It was probably one of him.

testing out an old manual focus 50mm f1.4 nikkor lens on the d200. input the right settings in the d200 and the metering system works fine. but, of course, everything is manual.
need to get a new contact prescription, though, I think and manual focusing can be tricky without a split screen or at least focus screen designed for manual focus.
amazing how that lens still works as if it was new. I bought it for my old fe2 back in the 80's.
I was running out of ideas, until I decided to do some product photography for a few days. Here's the lens cap from the lens that I'm currently favouring - Tamron 60mm f/2.0.

"Nikon Baby"
Can't figure out which one I like better - this one or this other shot. I ended up choosing this one because I thought it managed to capture the glimmer in The Girl's eyes.
I just wanted to capture The Girl's fascination with my lens caps. She always tries to shove 'em in her mouth!
Anyway, The Girl is so used to getting photographed. She even developed an instant look and smile for the camera.
Apologies for this mediocre picture. I didn't get a chance to take a good picture yesterday and all I had was this one of my lens cap. It'll get better, I suh-wear! I have more creativity and photo potential than this, I promise!

i bought this lens about a month ago...but because i was participating in project 50...i didn't really spend much time playing with it...cause i was too busy trying to get my photo of the day. now that i have completed that project...i'll play a bit before i embark on my next challenge.
i would like to get the macro kit for this lens...but i will wait...at least a week...before i order anything else. why? cause ups will be bringing me packages everyday this week...and i need to show some restraint!
Gotta love that Sigma 10-20mm.
A LensCap Rally at the Voortrekker Monument in Pretoria. The LensCap Rally is a day out with a Professional Photographer. There are set tasks and afterwards you can upload your photos to the site and have everyone comment on them. Its a great way to get out for the day, shoot loads of pics at interesting locations and meet other photo-mad people.
