A day of finding and enjoying all kinds of patterns and color both natural and man-made. But first yesterday’s images: Top shot of Bryce Canyon made with the D3s and 24-70 AFS F2.8 lens.
Second down, lines in red rock and two photographers, the Coolpix P7000. Next down, tighter shot of Bryce Canyon, D3s and 24-70, the HDR of sky and Bryce Canyon with the D3s and 24-70.
Bottom shot, old Chevy shot with the D3s and the new 28-300 AFS VR. This lens is killer sharp!

Today we had a stormy day and shot subjects in overcast light to bring out the colors, here are some of the images from today:

God has been so good to us on this trip. Lots of new friendships and the renewal of great old ones have been the order of each day. I hope you’re enjoying the eclectic images of various subjects.

Have a great day, and God bless,

Hope you’re enjoying the little guessing game……..

The days are long and the nights are short, but we are having a blast. Yesterday I posted some images for you to enjoy and try and figure out what gear was used in making them. I’v e got a shocker for you, they were “all” made with the Coolpix P7000. It’s just crazy how good this little camera is! I’m finding that if you use it with the same care as a DSLR, it can perform at a very high level. O.K. let’s try a few more, good luck……..

Thanks for coming along on the ride, God is really blessing me and i thank you for your prayers.

Well, sorry I posted so late, we have really been on the run. Great light, great subjects and great people to enjoy it with. First to yesterday’s images. All were made with the P7000, surprised?
I’m not this camera is turning out to be far more capable than I ever imagined. In fact to prove my point, I’ll post several more soon. Now for today’s contest. Try to figure out which images are from the D3s and which from the P7000. Hint the lens used for most of the D3s images is the new 28-300 AFS VR.

God is richly blessing out time out west and the fellowship and photography has been great.
Enjoy the images and I will give you the answers tomorrow……

We arrived in SLC yesterday around 11:30 a.m. and Jim Begley and I picked up our two attendees riding with us, Chuck Barnes and John Barrett. Then we drive the 6 + hours down to Page, AZ to meet the rest of the group. Had a good start and now it 4:30 a.m. and we are getting ready to head out for our first sunrise. Having fun yet? Yes, I am, but this is early……

The group are nice folks and I believe that over the next few days we will show them some of God’s most creative natural creations. I’m going to have a little fun with you this week, I’m carrying my usual compliment of gear, plus the new 28-300 mentioned last week and the new
P7000 the great little Coolpix camera. Each day I will throw in one or two images from the Coolpix P7000. The next day I will reveille which images were from the small guy.

So may God richly bless your Sunday and stay tuned for all the fun…..

Here are the first images, any guesses?????
