I called my 200mm-400mm f/4 VRII lens “Big Bertha” when I first got it because it is big and also heavy. I use this mostly for airs hows. I have recently acquired “Bigger Bertha” to use for wildlife and this was “Bigger’s” first outing. Also for my new heavier duty Really Right Stuff tripod and […]

So I am back on the trail shooting warbirds. Because this could be the last airshow the Thunderbirds perform at this year ( because of Sequestration, thanks to those wise men in Washington – the Party that Likes to say NO to common sense) I have been at the TICO Warbird Airshow in Titusville Florida. It has […]

Is it possible that eleven years have passed? The memory of those videos of the attacks on the Twin Towers are still so vivid in my mind, but we are the lucky ones. This year the Memorial Lights had a different setting with the new 1 World Trade Center taking full shape and adding a […]

Nikkor 200-400mm f/4 G VRII AF-S Having made the decision to move away from shooting film in my Hasselblad “V” series cameras I spent over a year agonizing “do I go Hasselblad H4D or Nikon D3X?”.
