Things that fly....(not just aircraft)


My new camera lets me take close-ups from far away, and here's the proof.

  1. Hey Ray...You may become the world's oldest arm-chair wildlife photographer...I read your e-mail about how you started taking pictures with a small digital camera and slowly started graduating to larger ones and you now have a fabulous Fuji Fine pix 50x zoom which because of its weight you can hand hold and make some pretty sharp pictures...You remind me a little of Eolake who loves photography and all that goes with it...His blog is a good place to find what is new in the world of picture taking...Photography has always been my passion too...I remember standing in front of camera shop windows and drooling at cameras as cheap as Kodak Brownies(1940's)... to highly sophisticated view cameras like the Linhof Super Technika with three interchangeable lenses (1958)..Check it out...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Linhof-Super-Technika-Model-IV-w-3-lenses-3-Film-Backs-in-very-good-condition-/230958639605?pt=Film_Cameras&hash=item35c63529f5

  2. Hi, Uncle Ron -

    Eolake regularly offers me advice whenever I ask, and he knows a lot about it. You do too, of course, and
    I'm lucky to have such friends.

    I get good pictures of the local crows, because some of them think I'm their mother...they come when I whistle, and sometimes when I don't. It's almost like having my own Air Force. :>)
