A sweet little trio of sparrows from earlier in the Summer. Happy Fence Friday, my friends, I'm dashing out the door but will catch up with you later this afternoon. :)

Been really enjoying TxPilot's drop shots as of late, with his unbergeek high speed trigger. Got me looking back at some of my drop shots from the start of my 366 project. Found this little beauty caught at the point of impact. Unfortunately my hit rate isn't as high as Mikes as I've only got a marionette syphon and quick reactions!! Might have to drag the drip kit out again one night and give this another try.

Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.

So we went through the photos, and this went from normal to something else I learned something new in photoshop. Can't wait to learn how to use this a little better.

The Custom Devastator and Optimus Prime in this set was made by my friends at Hobby St8tion. Every angle on this custom has so much detail on it. Probably the closest representation of Devastor and Optimus Prime from the Transformers movies. I am privileged to be able to work on adding the Lights on the Devastator as well as get to shoot it in all it's ball-wrecking glory! Also finally got a reason to shoot my Dual Model Kit Optimus Prime in action! =) You can also View a Devastator Preview Video I Made Here--->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAB8oDXQpOM

There is no doubt that advances in optics have made the DSLR zoom lens the tool of choice for most photographers, combining convenience, performance and cost in a single package.
Sometimes however, you need something faster than f/2.8 or f/4 to allow low light shooting or to give you a very shallow depth of field and great bokeh.
I present to you my collection of affordable prime lenses.
I don't use them all the time but find them quite useful on occasion.
From left to right:
AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G. This compact optic is dirt cheap and sharper than you would expect. It mates perfectly with my D3300 and delivers a very compact package that can't be beat. The problem for me is that I was never a big fan of the 50mm focal length when I shot film, preferring instead a 35mm f/2 lens on my film Nikons. I feel that the 50mm is too long for most interior shots where you will most likely need it. I wish that Nikon or a 3rd party would release a 20-24mm f/1.8 DX lens (35mm equivalent) at a reasonable size and price. I would buy it in an instant!
AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G. The "Nifty Fifty". I like this full frame (FX) lens a lot. The 75mm equivalent focal length on my DX cameras gives me a great indoor volleyball lens, a perfect product photography lens and a very useful portrait lens. Shot wide open, the bokeh is excellent and the shallow depth of field is easily manipulated by changing f/stops and observing the results you get with each iteration. It is also quite compact as you can see in the lineup.
AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G. Another classic optic and perfect for head and shoulders portraits with both DX and FX cameras. The f/1.8 aperture also makes it a great indoor sports camera. Combined with a DX camera like the D500 you can get fantastic action shots in low light. The bokeh also makes it a fabulous portrait lens.
Do you have a favorite prime lens you can't do without?

I realize that many of my photos are from Lake Counties, both in California and Oregon. They are far away spatially and geographically, on different sides of different coins.
