I looked at all the focal lengths the I've used with my K100DS, and it's interesting to see where the focal length 'bumps' are without filtering by lens. It is fairly even along the range from 10-300, with some dips at here and there. I mainly use my 16-45, 55-300, and 10-20. I can see where

Jack has invited all who can to get to see Yosemite with the water running high. I ended up having a very quick opportunity yesterday to get down there to and visit my brother and his family who were camping there. The park is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours to get there from my house. So we left at 5am

Wow, Thanks, Bob. No it isn't my daughter. My yougest daughter is desperate to learn to ride now that we live in Virginia horse country. Lessons are forthcoming. I really like the look in the rider's eyes contrasted with the look in the horse's eyes. Both focused but on different things.

I've never been a big fan of GESO's, simply because there is so much to see at once, but since everyone has been viewing all the Yosemite shots, we might as well go that direction. So here is the beginning of the GESO - just click 'Next' to view through the rest of them.
