couldn't pick up an sb-700 in time for spocom. i was walking around and taking shots, everything came out awkward, wasn't too thrilled by it. lots of post processing will fix it, but i wish i could have had an external flash to help lighting lol

Alch- love the black fangs. Definately fit the car!

Nitex- beautiful shot, beautiful dog!

Phelan- Yep, it's amazing what a speed light will do for your shots. We have an SB600 and an SB900. In most cases the 600 does just as good a job as the 900 and is lighter and easier to deal with.

Ok i finished some pics of my zoo trip. I really wanted to share the tigers but unfortunately they were some of the first pics i took with the camera. And i was still fumbling with settings. At any rate here they are!

*Edit - I had a crap rocketfish CPL on for these photos.. if only i could go back and put my new Hoya CPL on..

Taken with my D7000 + Nikkor 70-300 at or close to max range.

Tiger ambush--------------^^ : )

Did a shoot of my friends Genesis Coupe a few months back













left the wheel turned the wrong way...sucks. The last two shots are my first time shooting with off camera flash (only have 1 old vivitar 285). I also need a tripod; the cheapy one I found gives me shake still.

I would like to see more highlights in the windows and tires, mirrors/foam core.

Finally found a few minutes look at the shots from the regatta this weekend. Here are a couple. I will try and put a few more up later cause I gotta run....











This 1979 Lauterbach Custom hydroplane was designed and built by
my wife's grandfather and his brother. It was a treat
for us to get to see it. The original owner brought it
up from Florida where it is still raced. It is a work of art!!!
