    Really like the IR look and that tree with the grass and path is a great subject. If my 50D doesn't sell I may just have to convert.

    Standing the "tests of time" and I don't know how many hurricanes.

    Excellent shot, there!

    Hi Craig,

    You've got yourself another real winner here. It's a scene I've seen a million times ( well, maybe not the grand old plantation home ), being born and raised in the South. Your rendering here shows it to me in an entirely different fashion and one I find especially appealing.

    Take care, my friend.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy,

    I have loved having my D70S modded, really opens up a whole new realm of shooting possibilities.
    Take care,
