Hey!

I snapped this shot at a recent NYAR Rave at Phil's

This cool guitar belong to the one and only Chris/lonewolfny42.

I do like this picture in B&W than in color.

Take care,
Buddy

Yup, and it sounds great too.. in the hands of Chris/lonewolfny42 of course.

Take care,
Buddy

Hey!

Nice picture of the bird there.... it looks kindna shy.

Where did you take that picture? A wild life park or?

I'm in NYC and the wild life I see daily are those weird New Yorkers we have here in the concrete jungle.

Take care,
Buddy

Thanks! I really love the muted browns coupled with the clean white.

Tripod?

Yes, but only because the lens gets heavy after a while. The IS system allows for that lens to be hand held under most circumstances.

Now that's funny!

Good job on that magazine.

I made a fake Playboy mag cover last year using a picture of my Pug and gave it to my wife as a gag gift.

I rented a 70-200VR f/2.8 and walked around with it in my hands for a morning, once. Not too bad in the beginning, but definitely not enjoyable by the end. That's a great shot.

On this memorial weekend.....National Cemetery Dayton Ohio

Taken from a window in my family room. Tree was in the shade, so the lighting isn't the best...

PhilNYC · « **Reply #477 on:** 9 Jun 2008, 01:40 pm »

I got a little closer...lighting still not great...

nathanm · « **Reply #478 on:** 9 Jun 2008, 03:22 pm »

Aww. Baby birds are simultaneously grotesque and cute at the same time. I prefer the warmer white balance of the tighter shot, but that little spot of sun is distracting.

PhilNYC · « **Reply #479 on:** 9 Jun 2008, 05:28 pm »

Yeah, the sun and shadows were playing havoc with my exposures and composition. Anyways, here's one taken an hour or two later, with some better lighting. Apparently, there are 4 baby birds (robins) in the nest:
