The D1X again. At the Queens Botanic Garden. April or 2006. I forgot about the lens I used. It may have been the 60mm f2.8 Micro Nikkor.

May of 2005 with the Nikon DIX, I don't remember the lens. The only thing I can say is that it was one of the most phenomenal camera when it came to color. I really miss it.

Photo of the day 11-19-09 Canon Ft

Image
Shot in the summer of 1969 in Sicily with the Canon Ft, the Canon 50mm f1.4 FL on good old Kodachrome II. Yes it had an ASA [ISO] of 25. That was sufficient then to take photos in day time. Now we expect cameras to take shots at ridiculously high ISO settings. How times change.

The spring of 1975 with the Nikon F and the 35mm 2.8 Nikkor. Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn at sunset. The film was Kodachrome 25.

Shot in Ravenna. These mosaics are absolutely superb. The Nikon D200 with the 18-85 3.6-4.5 Nikkor; a great travel lens.
