Are you out and about in the world tonight Chris or back home?

I'm still in Austin. We planned to go downtown tonight, but after considering the news story that listed 100,000 or more people there as well, we opted to skip it and stay put. I fly home tomorrow.

Here's a couple of Kona shots with one of the new lenses. It was almost dark when I took them so they are at 2500 iso (but run through NR).

I can't figure out nikon's aiservo (continuous servo to them). I'm gonna need a lot more light and practice too once I figure out the settings.

My fellow belowmeonians,

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank for your year's hard work on being complete and utter blabberfingers and taking this thread so far ahead of your rivals (the tupperwarians). This year is officially the blabberiest on record and you should be proud.

And I also want you all to know that I love you all even more than that night in Geneva a few months ago (and that's saying something). Thank you all for your support for our wedding by the way, it's been much appreciated.

May 2009 bring you all increased blabbering and happiness. May all your lenses be shiney and your pictures colourful (except when they're in black and white).

Felicitations.

Pete & Ali.

That was very well put Pete. We love you guys too ;)

Nice shots, Lisa! I don't remember if I said it out loud or not, but the first night you got him I thought, wow, he's hard to meter! You either blow out his highlights or underexpose his face. :)

no you didn't mention that...I was wondering if it was the nikon metering. He is hard to get right though.

Yes, here too Dan. thing is we are so close to NYC and they know what folks can get there I don't understand why they don't try harder. I found a new almost local place (local for work) that has decent pricing, I got my flash thingie there and will check them out more closely in the near future.

Where Crissa ?oh and hi ya again .
