That was weird. For some reason I saw scratchy's post below yours and assumed they were his. And I guess he assumed they were mine? That is bizarre. We should all 3 go on a photo trip sometime!

Btw Marc Adamus (my photo-tour guide) is doing a 6-person trip to the Yukon next Oct to the tombstone mountains where you have to helicopter in. I've told him I'm interested but apparently 25 others are as well

Re: The Photography Thread

Cardshark, some of those shots are seriously fantastic!

Personally, I really like the original composition of the duck photo. I think it works really well as-is.

Re: The Photography Thread

What will it take to be able to use my monitor as a viewfinder for my D5000? Googling around doesn't really get me what I want.


I shoot a lot of static stuff indoors(Think Ebay store-esque photography) and it'd be nice if I could just use my monitor instead of a tiny little crappy 3" lcd

As long as your monitor has an HDMI input, I'd say a mini-HDMI -> HDMI cord and judicious use of the live-view button should do the trick.

Re: The Photography Thread

very nice star trails cardshark. My fav is the abstract. Love the waveyness of it.

Pele, those are some great compositions. I hate how zoomed in my 50mm is, I wanna get a sigma 10-20, but I'm about $400 short.

Thx! The 50mm on a non-FF camera is a bit zoomed in. Don't think it's such a big problem, you just have to move your feet and camera around a bit more .

A 24mm/1.4 lens would be nice

Re: The Photography Thread

This thread hasn't been seeing too much action as of late so I figured I'd add my photos from the Tetons. Only spent 2 days there, but I really enjoyed the hiking and the fall colors.

Driving in from yellowstone at night


Sunrise at Jenny Lake. I should have taken another exposure to get the background in focus :-/



just like this one!


playing on the rocks




I feel like I stepped into the wrong part of town








Sunrise at String Lake. Gimme some clouds!




2 shot pano






My Ansel Adams impersonation...except with trees blocking the river, no clouds, and no snowy peaks




Hope you like em, and sorry I'm no good at posting like 3 or 4

Re: The Photography Thread

Stunning pics! What lens were you using?

I especially like the ones with flowing water. You got great perspective for all those

Re: The Photography Thread

Found a Nikon Nikkor lens in a cab yesterday. It doesn't seem to be worth too much. I believe its made for a manual camera? is it any good? is there a not so expensive camera to that i can buy to try it out?

im 99% sure its this one

Re: The Photography Thread

It's a manual 24mm/f2.8, and it'll work on any Nikon SLR, film or digital. I'd certainly consider it a bonus, but I think manual focus lenses are kinda cool. On a 1.5x crop DSLR (which most Nikons are apart from the D700 and D3), it'll be the equivalent of a 35mm lens.

Feel kinda crappy for the poor soul that lost it though.....

Re: The Photography Thread

I agree, there is a serial number though. I think I will post an add on CL and if someone sends the number ill give it to them... I don't really care so much about it
