There's no cure for L fever :pirate:

 

Just some random shots from today. I love the colors from my 17-40. It almost looks like I'm using a polarizer. I also found out coffee filters work great for setting a custom white balance

Wish i had some clue as to WTF yall are talking about. I think taking pictures for a living would be awesome, but i pretty much suck at it. On top of that, add to the fact that im a noob with anything concerning phots, and its a bad combination...

I just received my new Sigma 70-300 APO DG Macro plus adapter for lens reversing. I played with some pictures with my 50mm f1.8 reversed onto the Sigma. Here's a series of pictures.

 

This was the closest I could get without Macro Setting on the Sigma

THis was the closest with the Macro Setting

And now for a couple reversed 50mm f1.8

 

70mm on the Sigma

300mm (I think this one was without the Macro switched on with the Sigma)

300mm (I'm positive the Macro was switched on the Sigma for this one)

I want to say razor thin DOF on the last shot which makes me wonder......could I photograph the edge of a razor with this setup?>....might be my next test.

 

Oh....and here's the closest I could focus with the Sigma w/ Macro enabled @300mm.

100% Crop

I know the pictures aren't particularly interesting, but the close focusing is amazing. This new setup is gonna be a lot of fun when it stops raining and I can get out on a bright day and play.

Fellow photographer in the wild! Gripped 5D with what might be a 50mm f/1.2. A little out of focus, taken out the car window.

Troy needs to pull his pants up, lol.

 

And the pic of the first bridge really makes me not like the fact that Nikon doesn't has CMOS and you do.... Virtually no noise for as high of an ISO you shot that at.

 

EDIT: Finally broke down and got PS to process pics... Some minor edits to come shortly.
