Folks, very very many thanks ( screw the english constructs ) for the ' likes '.
I am truly grateful to you all.:clap:

Last night I was watching a re-run of one of my favorite tv series...Battlestar Galactica.

During one of the episodes, i remembered something, got up, found it and showed it to my grand daughter. She is over here from Texas to keep me company. Each day with her, my health seems to be returning on steroids.

Anyway, I wanted to show her a symbol. I wanted her never to forget the courage and ingenuity of the human species. And I want her to be proud of Texas and her country, the USofA. She was born a long long time after the incident took place. But it is etched in my mind. The tears and prayers that we expended during that ordeal. And the joy...

It started with a simple message, to a place in Texas..' Houston, we have a problem.'

Do we remember these names? Lovell, Swigert, Haise.


Lest we forget. My salute to the courage and ingenuity of those that put their lives on the line so that mankind might take a step forward.

One of the best, multi-layered series ever produced. I have the entire series on blu- ray :thumbup:

Completely agree.

Very interesting - I've been experimenting a bit with macro recently:

Nikon D90 with 200/4 AIS and reversed 50/1.8D, I don't think flash was involved.

PS: it's a mechanical pencil, or at least the tip.

Nikon D90 with 50/1.8D and macro tube (26mm), not sure if flash was involved.

PS: it's a detail in the bark of an Arbutus tree.

It is said that quality never goes out of style.


Fads are just that. Fads. Another fad shall come along soon enough.

I need to get sick... now!

D700 with 28mm f/2.0 AIS @ f/2.0

Gentlemen....Bravo!!!!:clap:
 
Amazing!
I always wondered if my 120mm Nikkor AM-ED would work with my D800E.
I have to try this combination.
Thanks for your insight,
Mike
Mike, you would be amazed of the micro-contrast and sharpness in general.
F5.6 is amazzziiinnggg. F8 very good.
I would recommend a sturdy tripod or studio stand and mirror up and 3 secs delay.
