Elgin's Photography

These trees were heavily covered with ice from the recent ice storm. Every tree in the area was the same. Many trees had limbs break off causing power outages, and property damage. unfortunately I was not spared.

My Nikon D7100 just arrived! Can’t wait for the battery to charge so I can start shooting away! This camera is slightly larger than my old D40x, but is seems to be close in weight, just a tad bit heavier. The battery grip should be in soon, then it will weigh somewhat more, but heavy isn’t a problem with me. Now, I have to get to studying the manual and get up to speed on the cameras functionality. I’ll be posting some new photos soon!

Actually, it’s Thursday, 1:05am. Don’t usually stay up this late, but I’ve been studying the users guide for the Nikon D7100. Lots of features, and lots to learn. Watching some tv too. I reinstalled Capture Nx 2 today on my desktop, haven’t used it since I rebuilt this computer. I have a lot of photos that need some attention, but I’ll get around to that soon enough. Ok, that’s all for tonight.

As you can see, I’ve changed the layout. This will be an on-going thing until I get it the way I want it. I’m new to blogging and have a lot to learn, so please bare with me. Thanks.

It certainly appears that we both have the same tastes in camera equipment. My lenses are all Nikon 18-55, 55-200 VR, 70-300 AF, and a 35-105 AF which is a carry over from my Nikon film camera. It’s a heavy lens but still does great portrait and close ups. Thanks again for taking a chance on me on Facebook. I hope to have time this week to update my website and post some new photos. You may be the only person to visit that site besides me in who knows how long. I agree with you on the rainy day thing. I love going out after a rain and taking photos of anything that has water dripping from it.

It Sunday, and it’s raining again in Ferriday Louisiana. Hasn’t been very good photography weather. Have a new camera on order, can’t wait to get back to taking photos. I will be sharing them soon.
