Grand Central

Taken with Nikkor 24mm, f/2 with Nikon LB1c skylight filter.  This is converted from RAW using the D70 profile.  I can't find any D7000 color profile out there.

Best Bartender Ever -- the one and only lovely Lady Theresa
PS: can someone tell Theresa to pass me a correct email address so I can email her the pictures?  Thanks.

After half a dozen of Stellas from the lovely lady Theresa, we decided to hit the road drunk driving bicycling ...

In Preparation For End of The World

I got this stove in anticipation and preparation for end of the world scenario.  I heard we are close.
The stove is the Optimus Nova multi fuel thing.  I heard it's good.   No explosion and I live to tell and show you guys the picture.  So it's all good.

I focused some five inches behind the stove.  Time to get autofocus lenses.

UPDATE:
I like the music I have chosen. It enables an emotional dissonance between the video and the audio.

Tiny Little Flowers

This is straight from the camera.  Shot at minimum distance and wide open.  Handheld.

Galloping Horsey

Bryant Park

When the 24mm is attached to a DX camera, all of a sudden, it's not all that wide.  The wide end of my 18-70 becomes 24mm and is kind of wide.  It's quite easy to fill up the frame when 24mm is all of a sudden becoming a 36mm lens.  Is the 24mm lens that bad?  I don't want to believe so.

Levi's Filson Trucker Jacket

More information here.

There seems to be a lot of curiosities on this item.  And in the spirit of over-sharing, here are more shots of the jacket.

Technical details nobody cares:  wide shots by 24mm, detailed shots by 35-105 set at macro mode.  Camera mounted on horizontal column on tripod.
