I was on Flickr until they started charging several years ago and then moved my photos to a Piwigo installation under my own domain (Cityshadows.org).

You have a good eye. Lots of very nice work with an inspiring way of making ordinary things interesting.

Caution: Orgy ahead.
Just kidding. Caution signs aren't usually round.

The template and filters for the old Sigma lens were the wrong size for the rear mount filter holder on the Nikon lens, so I made new ones. I mostly shoot B&W film and use filters with ultrawides a lot.

You did very well! Not being comfortable pointing cameras at people is exactly why I don't do street photography, although I think it would be easier in a major city than in small town Alabama where people are intimidated by any camera larger than an iphone.

This is great. Very original perspective.

Wow! Not a bad haul for a mere two hour walk. Very nice work!

I used the Nikon 16-35mm zoom for the shot above which is a nice lens but has distortion that Ken Rockwell describes as "heinous" and "the most distorting lens I have every used" at the wide end. Thankfully, Nikon DSLRs can fix that, but not completely. I think that feature enabled for this shot.

There have been rumors that Nikon is going to (or already has) quit production of F-mount products. Luckily I bought my F6 just before it went out of production and didn't want to risk missing out on the D850 by continuing to procrastinate.

I like it (and it was on sale). It replaces the F6 body in my APE shoulder bag perfectly. I was planning on getting a D780, but I really wanted the flash sync connector and the 10-pin remote connector, both of which I use pretty regularly.

A Nikon D850. I got tired of dealing with airport x-ray machines and wanted a digital body that would accept all my Nikon lenses that I could take on trips instead of my F6.

Thanks, Taylor. On the part of the roof over the pumps facing the highway, it says Haunted Maze, so it does have a story to tell that I'm not privy to.

I like Toronto. If it had been up to me, I would have had it built closer to where I live.
