Photo Forum / General Photo Topics / Australian Photography / June 2008<YAWN> Ospreys Love The D3!!
It's true. I went on my midmorning beach walk down by the Chesapeake to see how my Osprey family is doing. Well, they are doing great and getting bigger by the day. Fortunately I had the D3 and my trusty Formidable 500 with me. I was able to capture the full impact of the four chicks getting fed and the male coming in for a landing. I tell ya! I don't think any other camera and lens combination could capture this splendor with such sharpness, tight DoF, and creamy bokeh. <http://ritaberk.myhosting247.com/osprey.htm> Rita  SignatureStamping out Internet stupidity one idiot at a time.

It hooked a whole school of idiots, though. I like your 200mm shot, but any old kit lens can do that from 12' away in the petting zoo where you took that shot. You should have used a LensBaby for that shot. Rita SignatureStamping out Internet stupidity one idiot at a time. Never empower the idiot, embrace it and stimulate it.

And here is the pic Rita wanted to post, but alas, he had neither the talent nor the equipment. http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/98364916/original And that was a scanned slide, not even the quality of an awesome 40D shot, but every once in awhile ya gotta go retro.

Astia, eh? Go easy on the cyan, it can get overwhelming with that film. Glad to see you choosing a good sensor, for once. HEY BRET IF U DON'T MIND COULD YOU FIX IT PLZ. TO AN 8x10?? SO THAT I MAY PRINT THIS AWESOME PIC. If You do send me a bill u have my addy >> > Yegawds! >> > That's gotta be a 40D shot!

Well I know the passion for the D3 and the 40D, but I took this about 2 years ago with my lowly D70 + 80-400 VR, which I still have to support my new D300. http://snipr.com/22j3d-qw4va7 |
