From Sunday in Rocky Mountain National Park.
Isaac, this is quite a wonderful travelogue you are putting together for us! Do you have a blog somewhere, or have you ever given a little background to this excursion which has taken you quite a ways from your Oregon home? (I rather like this image especially because it contains those moving goats (?) and the vast majority of our LF images are entirely static.)
Thanks! They are, in fact, goats. I don't have a blog, just a Flickr photostream and this Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/rhitmr...57648439719383
Nikkor-SW 90mm f/8. It's in the tags on Flickr, as always :)
You've got some great photos on your flickr Isaac, nice work. It seems like you do a lot of work with your Nikkor 135mm f/5.6. I have been thinking about getting this lens (I have several other Nikkors) but have been somewhat dissuaded by the mixed reviews. How do you like its performance compared to your 90mm f/8 and 300mm f/9?
I don't know where you're seeing negative reviews but for my purposes it's been just fine. It's not as sharp as the other two you mentioned, but the Nikkor-SW 120mm f/8 I recently picked up would have been a lot more weight to carry around Ethiopia :)
What an interesting photo. I am struck by the implication of heat and dry. The harshness of the light helps. The haze actually makes this work.
I find the bushes interesting in that some are vertical and some perpendicular to the slope, weird.
As for the 8/90 Nikkor, just be glad it is not the 5.6. ;)
Your flickr leads to another site, it's inactive, then?
