Thanks Igor! If you tap on the image on you phone it will expand, and if 
you then tap on "open in a new window" you will get a zoomable file. Not

Once upon a time I was shooting breaking waves with my Pentax 6x7.  I'd snap a 
fairly close shot then run up the [gravel] beach so my feet wouldn't get wet.

The inevitable happened and I slipped over while running.  On the way down I 
had the presence of mind to extend my arm to keep the camera out of the water, 
so while I was soaked from head to toe the camera was fine.

My wife found it quite entertaining... such a pity she didn't get a photo.

 Pentax -PH-RBK 67mm Lens Hood

That the hood breaks away rather easily is undoubtedly a blessing. After the 
fall, mine was missing part of the land as well, so it won't stay put. But had 
it been more secure, the lens might have been damaged.

i've had decent luck finding hoods on eBay; of three i've ordered (16-45, 16-50 
and 50-135) all look good, but one was worn to the point that it is a little 
too loose, so i'll need to fiddle with it (or order another and i'll still be 
ahead of buying new); on older primes i like the third-party metal screw on 
hoods, though the solid connection means they are in some ways less protective

Three times now I've gone down while walking along, thinking about shooting 
rather than where I was going.  

There's a remarkable amount of time to think Oh, shit! on the way down.

Damage limited to bruises, scrapes, and 3 pairs of trousers, fortunately.  My 
pride departed long ago.

Last week I slipped and fell on a slick muddy trail. Then when I stood up, I 
bashed the top of my head on an overhanging tree which knocked me back down 
again. Not my most graceful moment! As I was standing there with blood running 
down my face and dripping off the end of my nose, (waiting for my companion to 
dig out something I could use to put some pressure on the wound) all I could 
think was that I had successfully held the K-5 and attached DA12-24 out of the 
mud and away from the dripping blood.  Blood dries up, wounds heal, but to mess 
up a camera or good lens would be a real bummer!

 Paul,

 Three times now I've gone down while walking along, thinking about shooting 
 rather than where I was going.

 There's a remarkable amount of time to think Oh, shit! on the way down.

 Damage limited to bruises, scrapes, and 3 pairs of trousers, fortunately.  My 
 pride departed long ago.

 Cheers,

 Rick

Ouch - good save of your gear, though! Funny how reflexes can be 
re-routed form saving yourself to saving a camera. I hope you are healed

Too bad, Paul, but 60-250 hood can't be that expensive , hopefully!

Jack



15 months ago I tapped the lens hood of my 60-250 on my car door as I  
was returning from some shooting. The hood came off, rolled away a  
bit. I retrieved it. Upon arrival back home inspection revealed  
several parts of the hood's locking keyways were broken or bent. Spent  
an evening repairing those only to discover the pot-metal lands for  
the mechanism were broken or bent. A whole morning was spent finding  
the missing land in the driveway and epoxying it perfectly in place.


The hood lasted about 3 days. No more places to put superglue to make  
it work again.


So I ordered two from BH @ 44.95 each. Plus shipping. Still the same  
price. 2 to 4 weeks to ship - out of stock.


Have not damaged one since. Well, except the 12-24 hood 3 years ago.  
Same obnoxious price.

 to deal with the power lines...
 

The sun will be higher up in a month, but the tulip won't be there anymore.  As 
the power lines are just a bit south of the flowers, the only way to have the 
flowers block the sun like that is for the power lines to also be there - or to 
move the tulip.  So... that's that.  I'm stuck with what's there.

Big Egret versus smaller Heron at Ding Darling last week.
The little guy was pretty tough and puffed himself up to look bigger.

A pair of Norwegian nature photographers were in the area when the

All on firm ground

Hi folks,

We met up with the Cotters last night; they all survived across the
North Sea. Today has been spent sight-seeing in Bergen, and we've been
at the centre of local news this afternoon. Not much concerning our
presence, but a building downtown caught fire and the extinguishing
caused quite a commotion in the middle of the tourist crowd.

Well, funny you should mention that!

Actually, it happened while we were at the top of a mountain next to the
city, reached by a funicular railway. As we walked out onto the viewing
area it was obvious a fire was taking hold in the harbour below. We
rattled off some shots and the thought had crossed my mind that either
newspaper or TV might want the shot, but to be honest, I was on holiday
and couldn't be arsed. Not exactly the White House going up in flames,
just a local warehouse type building, and I couldn't see any flames
anyway, just lots of smoke.

30 minutes later we were back down and the smoke was mostly gone, and by
then I counted three news crews and a few snappers, so they had it all
covered. To be honest, if I did make a sale, it would have been hassle
sorting it out via phone conversations and then computer time and upload
etc etc - while we had a 2 hour scheduled stop in Bergen, and then the
fee - if they'd used the pic - would have only been in the region of a
hundred quid or so - just not worth the hassle. If newspaper stills fees
were ten times that, sure no problemo, but hey, I'm chilling out baby!

Besides, Jostein got a much better shot than me - he had a 300 mil on a
1.5 sensor, while I only had 200 mm on a 1.3 sensor.

Did get some nice sunset pics this evening tho - from a house on the
side of a hill overlooking the fjord - the hills and the water reminds
me of the San Francisco bay when I was growing up in Ca. Beautiful.

Pics soon.

This type of angle has been done before, but the six of us had fun

Well, nothing was built on top of it, and it's un-restored, the earth 
works and stone retaining walls the held them in are still visible as 
was the back exit and the trench that constituted a kind of tunnel or 
covered way between the fort proper and the lower battery..  You should 
visit Crown Point sometime, now that's a place where nothings left.  I 
believe it was as large a fortification as Ticonderoga in upstate NY and 
there's less to see than Griswold which was a much smaller fort.  Both

Rather than being at the mercy of public budgets, Ticonderoga 
(originally named Ft Carillon when built by the French) has had the 
benefit of being in private hands with the intent of preservation since 
1820, with research leading to renovation beginning in 1904.

For anyone interested - here's a link to the history of the fort and 
some pix of Ticonderoga from summer 2005...

Griswold is a big name around here.  However there isn't a Griswold 
County.  There is a Town of Griswold about thirty miles south of the 
City of Springfield.  Which is probably where those names came from in 
that particular context...

 I decided to post one more from Ft. Griswold.  Showing the parade 
 grounds and the Obelisk, (battlefield memorial built in the 
 1920's, the 
 US went kind of Obelisk crazy after the completion of the Washington
 

   
 Monument).

 As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.

 Griswold is a big name around here.  However there isn't a Griswold 
 County.  There is a Town of Griswold about thirty miles south of the

 City of Springfield.  Which is probably where those names 
 came from in 
 that particular context...

  Anywhere, really. In a station wagon. And Springfield. Is there a
  Springfield in Griswold County anywhere? Or vice versa, I 
 don't mind.

Personally, I really like it, but people less familiar with battlefields 
might not care for all that open space in the foreground.  I'd also 
like to see other treatments of the area ... it looks like there are 
some opportunities there.

I like the surrealism of it. Maybe a touch oversharpened, but even then 
that probably adds to the dreamlike effect. Dreamlike as in Dali, not

I  really like that Jack! Sway of  boat and sway of hill line up nicely.  
Flowers in foreground add a nice touch. Very, very nice.
