Title: Gee Brook State Forest
Post by: JohnBrainard on June 16, 2008, 02:23:03 PM
I've been back a few times to take pictures. This time, I had a wide-angle lens that I borrowed from work (Canon 18-55mm kit lens). I'm amazed at the difference a wide angle lens can make in a photo. Here's a few that I shot yesterday.

I love to be out there with God's Creation. He's made such a wonderful work of art! :)

Thank you ScottyBoy. That's the first time anyone has said that about any of my photos.


Ellette, thank you too. I wanted to get closer to get more shots, but he took off.

I agree Scotty, these are fantastic shots, I am looking for ward to doing more outdoor shots.
        You guys inspire me with the images that you display, keep up the great work.....I recently purchased a Nilon P-80 it has alot of buzzes and bells, but it will alow me to have greater control over making the images I desire to do.....

Thanks Larryboy.

That camera looks nice. I've been tossing around the idea of getting something like that for my wife for Christmas this year. She wants something small, so I don't know if that one you got is the right one. I assume that has all the manual modes that an SLR has?

I'll be looking for shots from your new toy.
