I Hate Gardening

17 Aug 2024 4 3 71
Strange things interest me. The past. The future. But seldom the present. For example: would my claim that the three Cream albums could fulfil all my musical needs if I were stranded on a desert island be proved if tested? Camera bags: a bit of a personal fetish. Typography. Jennifer Connelly's nose job. Not gardening, though. Nikon D2Xs and AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 lens wide open at 40mm (a field of view equivalent to 60mm on a full frame camera). 1/250th at 200 ISO.

Dandelion Clocks

Nikon D2Xs + Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AI lens. 100 ISO; f/7.6; 1/180th. Majestic. Statuesque. Indomitable. Unbowed. Undefeated. There is nothing more perfect than the dandelion.

Germination

It is a wet summer’s day; I don’t think summer has any business being damp, but it must be endured. Hence the pedestrian subject material. I am using a Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 series E zoom lens on a Nikon D2Xs, which gives an angle of view quite a bit longer than the range on a full-frame camera. Notwithstanding that it must be focussed manually, it represents a bargain for its optical excellence - mine cost £31. Where else can you get 150mm at f/3.5 for such a small sum? With this lens plus a 35-70mm and a 20mm I should be ready for anything when the sun shines again. I have substituted a magnifying eyepiece for the original on the D2Xs. It makes what I see 1.2 times bigger. This is very good for focussing. It is called a Nikon DK-17M. I ought to have bought one years ago.
