Nothing too special, just an iPhone shot from a bike ride this weekend up at Hume Lake in the Giant Sequoia National Monument. Absolutely beautiful up there right now.

Good luck with that gig. Don't forget your memory cards! (I did that once, when I promised to photograph a friend. Showed up with two cameras, several lenses, lights, batteries, and not a single memory card. All I could do was shoot a handful of JPEGs on the built-in memory of my LX3. One of the many reasons I'm not a pro photographer.)

Remembering things like memory cards isn't a big issue to me, but I should add that to my reminder list (iPhone reminders have saved me a number of times!). All the events are in the evening, which means artificial lights (outdoors) and pushing the ISO up. The D700 will do great, it's built for it, but I am concered about my secondary body (D200). Whatever happens it should be fun, and challenging work at the same time.

I know I'm literally going to be working with thousands of images over the period of the tournament, which is something I'm not used to doing. That has has me wondering if I should shoot jpegs, simply due to the sheer volume of images I'm going to be working with. I generally don't like shooting jpegs, because I find that they either turn out flat or overdone in camera. I have aperture setup to apply basic edits on import, so I might just stick with RAW.

Last weekend we probably had the last sunny summer days, autumn is coming with big steps this week.

Did my first model shooting today. I went with two photographer friends and two amateur models to a kind of train museum.

A bunch from a boys trip to a mountain hotel this past weekend, 90 minutes into the middle of nowhere, after a cable car ride to 2000m.



The liddle dude always in front being without a bag




Evidently, Twain, Dumas, and Picasso have stayed here, one of the oldest berg hotels in Switzerland.



The morning back, so far so good with the weather



Half way thru it start to rain: out comes an emergency trash bag. Best survival tool ever for under 25 cents.





Down into town





Contest, boiling water! The thermal waters from this town, as they say, take 40 years to come up 2000m.





The sun came out, and hot pools hit the spot.

That's a nice set of images. Here is one from the tournament I've been shooting at this month.

AWR, I sure would like to visit that mountain hotel. Wow. Very much my sort of thing.

Nice shot PB. I like the shoe/mirror shot by GSpotter as well.

I'd be happy to give you a tour!

The town that we get the lift from is called Leukerbad (approaching from the southwest), which has a number of hot springs. If approaching from the north, the closest town is Kandersteig.

Yesterday, Scott Kelby's Worldwide Photo Walk took place. I was at the walk in Braunschweig.

Worldwide Photo Walk 2012 in Braunschweig, Germany

I'll add more pictures of the walk to this set in the next days.

For a bigger pic, click here.

It's a really easy macro setup - you can do this if you have a zoom lens and a 50mm. Just put the zoom lens on your camera and reverse a 50mm in front of that. Open up the 50mm all the way, and put the zoom at around f/11.

In order to get an entry for the current photo challenge thread, I grabbed my tripod and went to the Autostadt in Wolfsburg for some HDR pictures:

Here is a shot I took for the local camera club theme on food. After setting this up in our makeshift light box I realized it would be nice to have more than two flashes (I have a SB-700 and SB-800). I triggered the two in SU-4 mode, using the our old SB-15 flash from the 1980's.

A particularly dilapidated door in Vernon, Upper Normandy, still being opened and closed five days a week.



While I was taking this photo (in full photo-dork mode with tripod and huge lens), two old men looked on, puzzled. I suppose they couldn’t immediately see a point of interest. But after a couple of minutes they walked by, and one offered: “If you’re taking photos of historic things, perhaps you should photograph us?” Who said the French didn’t have a sense of humour?

Incidentally, which camera/lens did you take that picture of the door with Dorian?

That was with my new Nikon D800, Chinney. The lens was an old (but good) 80-200 mm f/2.8, at 135 mm and full aperture. The light was beautiful but very dim, so the photo needed a half-second exposure, hence the tripod.

I’m glad you liked it! Here’s a bigger version, if you’re curious.

Nice, I've been thinking of trading my 70-300mm VR for the 80-200 F2.8D (like yours), the loss of 100mm is not really an issue since I have the 300mm F4. The newer 70-200mm VR lenses are a little steep, considering little I use a lens in that focal range.

We had a weather inversion here earlier this week (cold at low altitudes and warm above), and this was the result.
