Hi... I new to this forum, I usually spend most of my time at the Fred Miranda forums. It looks like this forum is fairly new and I'm a member of smugmug and have a web page there: www.thargis.smugmug.com and I'm glad I found this forum as it offers a new place to meet new people and share/see new photos. Here are a few of Paige that i took while on a field trip with a friend and his photography students. She was photographed as is, no great wardrobe options. Still had fun.

    Welcome aboard Todd. These are wonderful portraits and you are fortunate to have such a smashing model. I really love the first image! She looks like she is absorbed with something and it leaves you wondering what she could be thinking. Great mood. Great sharpness, great colors!

    Thank you.... Yes that is a 20-inch f/4.3 made by a former member in our astronomy club. He started a business called Spacewalk telescopes and only made 15 of them. He stopped because his wife got ill. It's a great scope with hand figured Pegasus optics. I bought it used from John Hall who owns Pegasus optics. Great guy.

    Awesome!! And you are in the right part of the country, at least for the Texas Star party.

    I might sell my 20" and get a 6"APO but not before I can get me the D4s!
