If you asked the question: Would the new 7D MKII AF system handle a 150-600 Tamron with a 1.4X Teleconverter and still autofocus? Well I hope this will go toward answering your question. In short yes. But. And there's always a but. It does need good light and/or a high ISO (Up to 1250 in some shots I took) and you are limited to ( in my experience on the day anyway) Single point Spot AF. Single point AF. AF Point Expansion. AF Point Expansion (Surrounding points) and Zone AF. Well five out of the seven available isn't bad in my humble opinion.
This shot for instance taken later in the afternoon as I was about to leave the park and with the sun dropping away behind and to the right of this lovely animal had me reaching for the ISO button and a 1250 setting got the focus on and got me the shot. I could have focussed manually but I was testing things out. The Sigma Teleconverter takes nothing away from the sharpness though and I was pleased with the result even though I had to process the RAW file in the barely adequate Canon DPP software and finish it off in my usual workflow. The previous image of the Pere David Deer was also shot with the Sigma APO EX DG 1.4X TC'v on the back of the 150-600.

The biggest threat to the US Navy's aircraft carriers in the early 1950s came not from the Soviet Union, but the US Air Force. With jet-powered strategic bombers, many questioned why the Navy needed expensive carrier battlegroups at all. With the US armed forces adopting an "all-nuclear" force, the Navy needed a bomber capable of delivering a nuclear payload. The Lockheed P2V Neptune could be launched from carriers, but was too big to land. The North American AJ-1 Savage could launch and land, but was propeller-driven and too slow to survive over the USSR. Finally, in October 1952, famous Douglas aircraft designer, Ed Heinemann, delivered his latest masterpiece: the A3D Skywarrior.
The Skywarrior was, in a word, huge; sailors quickly nicknamed it "Whale." The largest aircraft to operate from carrier decks, it had to be big to carry the large nuclear bombs of the 1950s. Despite its size, the A3D was surprisingly docile, though engine problems kept it out of the fleet until 1956. It could not operate from the World War II-era Essex-class carriers, only from the later "supercarriers" like the Forrestal and Nimitz-classes. A lack of ejection seats led the three-man crews to joke that "A3D" stood for "All Three Dead." Nevertheless, the A3D did the job it was assigned to do, and rather well.
Technology rapidly outstripped the A3D, and only four years after it began operations, it was already obsolete in the nuclear bombing role--like its predecessor, it was too slow to survive over the USSR. It could be still used as a conventional bomber, and the Navy saw plenty of growth potential. Redesignated A-3 in 1962, a number of variants came into service, the most widely used of which was the KA-3B tanker.
Skywarriors would serve throughout the Vietnam War and well into the 1980s, although it was replaced or supplemented in all of its roles, primarily by A-6 Intruder variants. The Whale continued on because it could carry more than the A-6, when it came to fuel or electronics. By 1990, the A-3 was clearly at the end of its service life, and after a last hurrah with the First Gulf War, the A-3s were retired in 1991.
Dad photographed this EKA-3B Skywarrior at the 1977 Malmstrom AFB airshow. The EKA-3B could be used either as a tanker or as a standoff electronic countermeasures (ECM) jammer, using the sensors in the tail. By 1977, however, most were used solely as tankers, as the EA-6B Prowler was much more effective.
147657 was built originally as an A-3B bomber, then converted to a KA-3B for Vietnam service, then to an EKA-3B in 1968. At the time Dad got this picture, 147657 was assigned to VAQ-208, which maintained Pacific fleet refueling aircraft from NAS Alameda, California. It carries standard USN camouflage of the time, as well as three "E" engineering awards given to VAQ-208, and a Vietnam service ribbon beneath the cockpit. 147657 was retired in 1989 and scrapped in 2004, but the cockpit was preserved and is on display at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Question Mark in the yard, Guilford, CT. Top (dorsal) view; see next picture for underside. Will try to get a better picture of the top if I see it again. I think it's been hanging around; I'm fairly sure I saw it yesterday, and again in the afternoon. (Saw it several times over the next few days, but never got a better photo.)

Another question is the frame registration. Some say the 120 leader is longer and others say it is shorter than the 220 leader. Since I did not have any 220 film, I cannot say. Let see if we can figure this out... I roll my own 120 film. I have some spare film and some spare backing paper laying around. What I did was run the same roll of 120 film through both the 120 and 220 back. I removed the dark slide and marked the location of each frame. In the photo, the left or blue marking is from the 120 film back. The right or red markings are from the 220 back. I lined up the start marking of the 120 film with the red start marker on both the 120 and 220 back inserts.
As you can see, the registration of the 120 and 220 back inserts are fairly close. I would attribute the difference to the positioning of the start mark and the tension of the film. I would say it is quite acceptable and twelve exposures will fit tidily on both the 120 and 220 film back.
Myth Busted- 120 Film will register correctly in a 220 film back.

“What does love look like?” is the question I’ve been pondering
“What does love look like?”
“What does love look like?” is the question I’ve been asking of You
I once believed that love was romance, just a chance
I even thought that love was for the lucky and the beautiful
I once believed that love was a momentary bliss
But love is more than this
All You ever wanted was my attention
All You ever wanted was love from me
All You ever wanted was my affections, to sit here at Your feet
Then I sat down, a little frustrated and confused
If all of life comes down to love
Then love has to be more than sentiment
More than selfishness and selfish gain
And then I saw Him there, hanging on a tree, looking at me
I saw Him there, hanging on a tree, looking at me
He was looking at me, looking at Him, staring through me
I could not escape those beautiful eyes
And I began to weep and weep
He had arms wide open, a heart exposed
Arms wide open; He was bleeding, bleeding
Love’s definition, love’s definition was looking at me
Looking at Him, hanging on a tree
I began to weep and weep and weep and weep
This is how I know what love is, this is how I know what love is
And as I sat there weeping, crying
Those beautiful eyes, full of desire and love
He said to me, “You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me”
With arms wide open, a heart exposed
With arms wide open, bleeding, sometimes bleeding
If anybody’s looking for love in all the wrong places
If you’ve been searching for love, come to Me, come to Me
Take up your cross, deny yourself
Forget your father’s house and run, run with Me
You were made for abandonment, wholeheartedness
You were made for someone greater, someone bigger, so follow Me
And You’ll come alive when you learn to die

Straight ahead at the Ramsey Library,
University of North Carolina at Asheville (in the mountains).
The elegant mural above the desk is "Eight Views of Mt. Pisgah" by Robert Johnson (b.1944). It is intended to suggest many environmental trajectories for the Blue Ridge area--some beneficial and some not. Worth considerable study, which, sadly, not that many passersby seem to give it.

Known to be inhabited at least since the 6th century BC by Phoneticians, Greeks and Carthaginians, the area of the S. Jorge castle is referred clearly in historical terms since the conquest by the Romans, being believed that by the time some kind of defensive structure already existed.
With the fall of the Roman Empire under the hands of the “barbarians”, and in the 6th century of these to the Arab conquerors, this castle was always a stage of battles, especially during the Christian re-conquest of the territory, being frequently taken by Christians and later on by the Arabs.
Still, in 1147 by the hand of D. Afonso Henriques (the first Portuguese king) and with the help of crusaders that were going to the holy-land, the castle was definitively conquered after a siege of 3 months. The story tells that the knight Martim Moniz, taking notice that one of the doors of the castle has been opened rushed into it placing his body among them and sacrificing himself. He prevented it to be closed though and allowed for the conquest of the fortress.
After this event, the castle resisted successfully to several Arab conquest attempts from 1179 to 1183.
Becoming Lisbon, in 1255, the capital of the reign, the castle was converted into royal palace which lead for it to be attacked several times by the Spanish in the attempts to conquer Portugal during the 13th and 14th century.
But with the damage made along centuries by earthquakes, especially in 1755, and the change of the royal palace to the Tagus River shores the S. Jorge castle entered in long decline being used as prison and military head-quarters. It was recovered during the 1940’s and 1990’s and it’s one of the most important places to visit in Lisbon, as it has some of the most magnificent views over the river and especially the medieval quarters of the town.

ever since i drove out of texas, i stopped shaving and grew a beard. it took me a while to understand why but in hinesight, i came to the realization that i was indeed hiding from myself. it will be two years since the move and i'm just getting to know myself again..as an artist, a friend and most importantly, a father . i shaved my beard in the summer of 2005 and i'm fully stocked with razors though, it may not lookit in this foto
part of the inspiration that goes along with this realization are the friends i've come to know and love not only in texas but in my beloved new home of philadelphia. one friend in paticular, Laura Kicey.
i know this is really late but some things are better with time...happy be-lated birthday helveticaneue.

Questions/Branding: Mobley Sans is a male, probably in his late 20’s or early 30’s. I would think he is sophisticated and creative, but also a sort of hipster, like a hipster 10 years ago before it was “cool”. He would wear lots of blacks, browns, and desaturated colors, and would own lots of sports coats. During his day-to-day life, he would wear orange/brown corduroy pants and some dark brown, fancier loafers. Mobley Sans would be a Jazz Bar, serving cocktails and rich desserts. The typeface is based on letters from a 1960’s jazz album, hence being a Jazz Bar. Due to the heaviness of the letterform, I picture it being low light with rich, heavy desserts and lots of cigarette smoke in the air. I picture it being a more upscale establishment but still a little dingy or messy since the cigarette smoke has probably seeped into the walls and drinks have been spilled to make the floor a little sticky. The only food they serve would be desserts because people would go there late at night after dinner for a nightcap while they enjoy some live Jazz. The rich, chocolatey desserts would feed into the sophistication of the Jazz Bar.
My signature dish to represent Mobley Sans is a layered dessert, with a crisp chocolatey base, almond dacquoise layer, mocha cremeux, and topped with a mascarpone cream. The base is rich with chocolate flavor and has a crispness to balance the smoothness of the mocha cremeux. The almond dacquoise layer is a light and crispy meringue-like layer. Above the dacquoise is the mocha cremeux. This layer is dense but soft, with rich chocolate flavor and pudding like consistency. The mascarpone cream on top is light and slightly sweet, which balances the richness of the mocha cremeux very well. Mobley Sans would sell this dessert at about $8 a serving, so slightly high-end pricing but enough of a serving to share with a date. The Jazz Bar would have lots of textures in their Bar, with dark textured wallpapers, wood stained dark tables, with gold accents on the chairs and as centerpieces on the tables. Decorations would be simple but sophisticated, with dark browns and creams, and desaturated oranges, reds, and yellows throughout. You would receive a simple, but soft, dark brown napkin and gold fork/spoon with the food and drinks that you order at Mobley Sans.
Criticisms: The almond cake layer was a little burnt. I tried making a mold but it didn't work, so I'm going to try another way to make a mold because it's too hard to cut by hand. Moving forward, I'm going to make a mold to use and change the order of how I actually prepare it so that all 3 layers hold together better.
Oral Question Period on the first day of business for the Third Session of the 28th Legislature. November 18, 2014.
All of the holiday marketing tells us that Christmas is a time for laughing with family, beautiful people and cashmere sweaters. But the holidays can be more complicated; they can bring up difficult issues. And that’s OK. This church used The Beatles’ music to help ask some big questions and then looked to Scripture for the answers.
The visual branding for this series tied several themes together—Christmas, music, vintage and The Beatles.

From what I can gather, this sticker is advising that when a dutch bike and some crappy headphones make a collabo, the result is some sort of parking meter / tombstone amalgamation.
my sister and I began taking pictures of this piano shortly after 1pm.... we both have the same camera..... we took these pictures to capture this piano ransacked by retarded kids.... what we captured is unreal...
