I wa...Thank you, everyone, for your kind comments! I was surprised at how easy it was to achieve this technique. And with a scene like that, how can you take a "bad" picture, LOL.<br /><br />Sister Patty - I used a Nikon D70 for capturing this barn image, outfitted with a Nikkor 18-200mm zoom lens with vibration reduction. Earlier in the year, I got a Nikon D90. I love both cameras and highly recommend them. DH is a retired pro and only uses Nikon equipment. The best place to get new equipment if from B&H Photo in NY (www.bhphotovideo.com). Great service & prices. Been doing business with them for decades.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-3961367563869732952009-12-28T14:06:42.781-05:002009-12-28T14:06:42.781-05:00WOW!

I got a Nikon D3000 for Christmas but because Best Buy taped the box shut with the message: "15% restocking fee if this tape is broken" we took it back the next day! I couldn't even open it to see if I liked it! Anyhow, more research on cameras... I would love to know what kind/model of camera you use!

I have been itching to get another camera, but finances are SO tight here,(very little work for a sub contractor here in Michigan) I have not been able to even think about it. The kids all gave me $ for Christmas, so I am starting a bit of research. I have a friend who has a used Canon digital for sale, and I am waiting for more info on that. What I would LOVE is a Canon Rebel....what are your thoughts?Farmgirl Cynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596602094024708943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-56425665447926869702009-12-27T14:51:42.319-05:002009-12-27T14:51:42.319-05:00I love both images.
