    New Toy(s)

    First, a Nikon Nikkor AF-D 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens



    So far I've used the lens for a bit of everything, portraits, general shooting and I love it. Can't wait to try it out at a newspaper event (have to sign up for that...) and church events.

    The second toy is the Gary Fong Lightsphere II Cloudy. I love it! I need to now get the clear and the other two top domes. A couple of favourites from using the lightsphere


    My friend Dave from Rochester...you can't see it but he's about to be attacked by two girls attempting to apply lip gloss


    Would you look at those big brown eyes!

    Looks like you need to dust off your pentax. that lens is sharp, to show even the fine detail of the dust. Congrats, on the new toys.
