Cold and rainy weekends

After work last week, I spent some time - where else?

 

Nikon D700 & old Nikkor 70-210 f/4

The new $15,000,000 (overpriced, un-needed, good-mainly-for-businesses) parking garage going up does have some interesting moments. I use my 70-210 Nikkor on the D200 and voila Its a 315mm lens!

Sometimes the weather and all sorts of other stuff combine to drive what I can shoot. I went to a track meet, but it looked like rain after an hour, so I only shot a couple of events.

Since my Sigma 105 macro lens is off to repair, when I got home I used the same lens as for the track meet (Sigma 70-200 2.8) to shoot some little candies and pots I have been saving for tabletop shots. From leaping runners to close-up tabletop shots -- this lens is my most versatile; it's fast and sharp like a razor at every distance. Heavy as hell too.
