Evan's photography phun

[trackend]

Nice pics Eric I think pic one is my favourite the foreground foliage gives it a nice sense of depth and the toning adds punch, shame about the car but you cant do the impossible and can only shoot whats there unless you wait for hours for the guy to move it of course
At least you didnt have the photographers nightmare bloody telephone wires and TV ariels.
I enjoyed your shots Eric cheers.

 

[evangilder]

Thanks Lee. I know, the bloody car got on the shot. I was shooting across a busy street and that was the best I could do. Ah well, I still like it.

 

[trackend]

Oh ic Eric the car looked stationary.
Was that the Bigma without filter or a standard lens?

 

[evangilder]

Bigma, non-filtered. I rarely use the other lenses much anymore, except for air to air shoots.

I wish I knew what the wish is , possibly a slow stream?

Who know, or cleaner water perhaps...

It's calendar season once again. Here is my first 2008 calendar preview. It's already posted to my new online store at:
Van Gilder Aviation Photography Store : CafePress.com

They print a whole lot better than my previous calendar publisher and use a nicer quality paper.

Eric:

You do good work, I am impressed ! I have a Nikon N51 (film) and a
Nikon D70 (digital), with three lenses. The one that came on the cameras,
plus a 70-300MM telephoto and a "doubler". Just bought a remote for
the D70 this week. I have a Meade 5" telescope and have a camera
adapter for it. Will have to show you my photos of outer space.

Thanks Charles!

That would be cool to see your space shots. I have the D50. I use the 28-80mm Nikkor for my air to air shots and I was using the Nikkor 70-300mm before I bought the Sigma 50-500mm. I carry the 70-300 with me still in case someone wants to borrow it when I am out shooting. I always find a taker for it.

Very fine art, my friend, very fine!

 

[evangilder]

Thanks. I am hoping the calendar sales do well enough for a camera body upgrade at the end of the year.

 

[Pisis]

Hopefully, your stuff will make it for you! 8)

 

[evangilder]

I hope so. I am looking at the Nikon D80. 10 Megapixels!

Been in San Diego for a couple of days to take the kids to Legoland and Seaworld. Both were fun, but exhausting. Here are some quick edits from the trip.

I also took my son on his first roller-coaster ride. This shot says it all. LOL

 

[Pisis]

ROFL!!! I remember being on my first (and last so far) rollercoaster ride. In Alton Towers, UK, 1998.

Nice pictures there, von Eric!

 

[evangilder]

Now THIS is freakin' cool, 20,000 hits in the last month on my website! 4,600+ in the last week alone.

Great shots!
I always like seeing pictures from my hometown, it's amazing how much it's grown up.

I remember my first roller coaster ride with my dad as well, on the Revolution at Magic Mountian. I think I had the same look on my face!
