- Excellent job on the pictures, given the terrible lighting.
It sure was a great way to utilize the Digital SLR's long exposure.

What camera and lens were you using?

Thanks...

I have an entry-level Nikon D50 (6.2 MP), and a Tamron 17-50mm zoom with a constant f2.8 aperture. I shot most of these from f10-f14 for a better depth of field. I tried a little color correcting in Photochop CS2 as well. But I am a little red/green color-blind so I can only get so close .

The lens is super-sharp, even at 100% crop. None of these photos are cropped though.

I am lusting after a D300 body though, but that means less z mod money

It sucks when the Z is not your only money-hungry hobby!

I saw your GT3 roll out, it sounded amazing when you opened up the throttle. Great choice, and it's nice to see the 997 brought back the legacy headlights.

Drive safe.
