OK… So more on this Thompson trip I took in March.

Had a blast, and it was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle and clear my mind some. Nothing will clear your mind better than a freakin’ freezin’ Canadian Winter. Actually, could have been a lot worse.

Here are a bunch of shots that I took (with a bunch more to come.) The gentleman that you see there that is not me is my best friend John. He’s big on SMART cars and apparently his wardrobe is brought to you by the colour BLUE.

Ya, so I was just tooling around one day… thinking about what it would take to capture decent shots of fish in my aquarium.

Needless to say, with low light levels it poses a challenge. I’d tried with f2.8 lenses but still found light lacking. Soooo…. decided to break out the manual focus Pentax A 50mm f1.7.

Managed to come up with this… my favourite being the first one.

It’s amazing what f1.7, shake reduction and little luck with manual focusing can achieve!

I’m slowly going through my large collection of unedited RAW files… trying to sort and process the keepers and dump the losers…

Anyhoo, a few more cat shots…
