Tried something again today, or started to try something new, but decided to try again before I tried, if that makes any sense… probably not, huh. A couple of weeks ago, I tried to mount the 30mm Sigma and 10-24mm Nikkor in reverse on the 75-150, but had no luck with either. Well, in a …

365.81 Spring Creek Forest Preserve Photowalk
I came across an oddity in Dallas county… the Spring Creek Forest Preserve in Garland TX, of all places. So Momma and I went out there (all 10 minutes from her North Dallas abode) and wandered around for a few hours. From the time we left the car (about 9:15am) until we were leaving (about 11:45am), …

Super Macro Brothers: the Weigh-In

365.79 Ohne Titel (Sending Feelers Out Into The Void)
Leaving work today, I walked outside and the clouds… oh my, the clouds. I pulled the D7000 out of the bag and started shooting. I took the long way to the car. D7000. Sigma 30mm f/1.4. ISO100, 1/8000th, f/1.4 (yes, I should’ve stopped down, way down. Oh well. By the time I realized it, I …

365.78 Reversed Walkaround
Got home a bit early today, and so I took the reversed 75-150 for a walk around the apartments. This is the best shot I got, though I was shooting more to test the performance characteristics of a reversed 75-150mm E Series in the wild than to make a competent photo. I tried to take …
