To danielswalsh: Yes, I'm back
Speaking of missing, I don't think you've been around too much lately either. I put a little explanation on my profile of why I stopped posting to TE and why I came back, so I won't repeat it here....

To PixelTerror: D200
I had to laugh when I read your comment - you absolutely read my mind! I was afraid to use my D700 at the beach because of the risk of getting salt water damage. As you can see from the shot, I was...

Re: To pboehringer: Tulips
Don't worry Peter - I'm definitely not bothered by your critique. This is one of those examples where you comminicate in writing and can't show your intonation or smile, and results in some...

To pboehringer: Tulips
Great observation Peter, but I WAS there an hour earlier! Those mountains in the background block the sun until about an hour after the normal sunrise. This shot was taken only a few minutes after...

Re: To pboehringer: Back to TE
Sorry to hear that the boat trip was a disappointment. Some of those places (like Spirit Island) are difficult to get to, and it's very disappointing to have bad weather when you finally get there....

Hi Peter - It's good to hear from you, and it's partly because of you that I'm back on TE. Your encouragement (along with some other people) was the push that I needed to come back, so I thank you...

Hi Peter - you have a sharp eye to notice the moon! With even a 30 second exposure you start to get some motion blur on the moon (and also stars) from the rotation of the earth, so the moon was a...

Thanks for doing the frame for me, I think it looks great! I like frames, but usually I want really big frames, too big for this site because then the photo would end up too small. After seeing what...

The secret of getting snow shots and longest day shots is simple - multiple trips! I went to the Rockies twice last year, and usually I wait until there is an impeccable forecast, then hop in the car...
