I figure if it’s good enough for him . . . :-)

I especially like this one about tea: http://lotuslightimages.com/?p=541
Since I had so much fun with my friend’s iPhone 5, I’m thinking I’ll upgrade and use that as a backup. Maybe I’ll start to enjoy composing on a screen more that way. My family is remarkably patient and supportive, but everyone has their limit. :-)

I think about Jay Maisel and how his Nikon and the 28-300mm zoom are such a part of him, extension of his eye and arm as it were. Glad you’ve found something that suits you!

It is a great ‘walkabout’ lens. I’m also using the Canon L 24-105. Not quite as big a range, but not too bad. Having a good zoom is GOOD!!

Being with other people and photographing? They have no understanding why it is totally necessary to move only 5 feet and stop to take another image. My little camera is a Canon Powershot S100. Cute and easy to carry. Works well as a backup camera (although my ‘real’ backup is the 40D) and I can take it everywhere with me.

I think we need to give a course on “Living with a photographer” for those who want to be with us!! :)

I get such a sense of place from your images. I’m a Northern California girl, born and raised. I love it here, and it’s clear you love it there. It’s nice to be able to visit through your eyes.

Very happy you enjoy seeing what comes out of the Great State of New Jersey – And whatever camera I’m behind! ~ Mark

But honestly, that scene was so inviting it would have been really hard to pass it up. It definitely changed the day for the better I think.

Sounds like that was a turning point in the day, the photography and more importantly, the relationship. Flexibility is really important.
