Please pardon the crappy quality - It was from my phone, and I didn't have a lot of time to set up the shot:

I grabbed the Ricoh GXR M mount module last Friday and I have been putting it through the paces. Some pictures I have taken so far. These were taken with the Carl Zeiss C-Sonnar 50mm/1.5.

I love the GXR M mount module. The only quibble I have is the lack of a sensor cleaning function. I guess the air blower will have to do.

At the DC Autoshow

Here is my American Bulldog Kara. She's a sweetie.


And my German Shepherd puppy Willow who is a pain in the ass currently but adorable.


And last but not least, my good friend and longtime Boston Bruins fan, Barry.

The other side of the car:

Also, random cute Univision news reporter. She gave me the stink eye when I took a few photos, so I scurried off.

After walking around the DC Auto Show, I went over to Chinatown. I went past the bastion of anti-American Socialism:

Been a while since I have posted anything, but I've been wanting to show off some work. And here there is a thread just waiting for me...

Three that I really like from recent outings.







I hope you have enjoyed.

This might get more views than testing, so here's a few pics from my recent trips to Chicago and NYC. Animal pictures were taken at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago.

I also feel compelled to point out how amazing 18x zoom really is.

Here's a perspective shot:



Same building in the distance, taken from the same spot, maximum zoom.

I am artsy and shit.

I got ahold of a Fuji X-100, and one of the "features" is mimicking some of Fujifilms film. Velvia is saturated like all hell.

Not much to show off with a camera from 2004, just some snapshots from my parents summer cottage by the sea, I have had vacation for a week and a half now and I bought this very american thing, a Weber smoker:


I didn't keep it there, but it made a nice shot.


This here is the recipe for a good vacation, and it's right at my doorstep. Beats going to Rome or the Canary Islands let me tell you, way cheaper too.

First ribs I ever made in this thing:

Got my new camera this week, been learning how it works. I seem to use aperture priority a lot.

Just testing the quality, it was just a random snap and I am pretty happy with how it came out. Very fartsy, no art.

This is my dad's tractor, it's truly a machine of insane durability. No problems at all in seeing how horses where displaced.

And while I am at it I made this one earlier this week, it's a taco pie with a rye/wheat crust:


This is pretty much all I take picture of nowadays, my camera is also at deaths door (Casio Exilim EX-5 something, very old..)

Your culinary skills appear to be amazing. I am now very hungry. Gee thanks. LOL!
