John (300m) > Nov 2:  Smugmuger visit the Eastern Shore
I had the pleasure of having lunch with Hillary, her husband Steve, and Alex.  We all meet in Cape Charles on the eastern shore for the afternoon to do some talking, talk cameras, photo's and to take some pictures.  We had a VERY enjoyable afternoon and my wife Brenda and daughter Kara enjoyed meeting everyone.  My wife succeeded in her mission of staying out of the photo's :)  The group shot on the top was taken by my wife Brenda of the 3 of us, Alex, Hillary & myself.  I must say is was a great afternoon and we did not end up leaving till late that day  Looking forward to meeting these folks again and other members.  I have not looked yet, but I look forward to seeing the others group shot.  Have a great day!
John (300m) > Sept 7:  SP with a friend:
I was on line reading the Dailies and actually tying a note to Betsy (Shutterbuglady) when Marco decided to fire up the back of the chair and come visit.  My daughter heard me talking and came to checkout what was going on.  Marco was have a look here at what I was typing here and  gave me his opinion.  I was fortunate to get this shot, but the camera was setup & on to my left and my daughter know how to use one.  Her only comment is "this is heavy!".  I use a RRS portrait bracket to hold the flash and Kara is not use to a flash at all.  This SP is by Kara, she took several of us and I liked this the best for today.

Bill Pador.  I had a text message from Bill late last night.  He is still sick and has not had a chance to take any pictures.  He said to tell everyone Hello and thanks for the well wishes!!  He greatly appreciated all the get wells he got.  He has a major infection that is not going well so I wish him the best and a speedy recovery.

A Note from Bill!
Thanks to all of you who have sent me well wishes, your emails & comments on my pics have brought me great joy in the past week & I'm sorry I've been unable to answer them all individually but believe me they were all taken heartfelt & greatly appreciated. John if you would pass this message on to your visitors who are all my friends as well I would appreciate it my brother ! Thank You ALL VERY VERY MUCH !@ Your Friend & Dailies Group Member Bill Pador
John (300m) > July 9:  Out of my comfort zone.
Well I did it today, fully out of my comfort zone and in front of the camera.  It was raining today and between that and the tasker I was working I did not get my lunchtime walk in today.  I have had this SP shot in the back of my head for the last month so I figured that if John could get in front of the camera then I could.  I did the setup in my "office" here at home with two SB800's.  One is mounted on a stand at 90 degrees to the camera with the diffusion dome on and set for 14mm lens  The second was on the camera with the diffusion dome and set for 17mm lens.  I was using my 17-35mm lens at 24mm for the shot.  Flashes were controlled by the master on the camera set at full and the off camera a -.3EV.  Triggering was done with the Nikon electronic trigger set for multi exposure.  This forces the camera to focus at every shot so I could trash the 1st shot and use the rest :)  I was actually working on a shot in Lightroom in the picture.  The sunrise is here.   Sunrise  This was my alt choice in case I lost my nerve to post my mug shot.
