This is with a Nikkor 85mm f1.8 K. I got sand in it in Africa back in the 1980s and only recently dissassembled it and cleaned it out. Does OK now. This is on a Nikon D3200.

In another forum, a poster said that most old SLR lenses can't achieve what kit lenses do these days. I said that if any of his readers had any old Nikkors, they should just send them to me and save themselves the embarassment.
circa-1968 UD-Nikkor 20mm f3.5 on a Nikon D610.

I don't do people very often but on this occasion, I saw an opportunity. I was photographing the dragonfly when this little girl came along. Her mother kept telling her to not go too close. Finally, and with the mother's permission, I stepped back and told the girl she could get real close for a good look.

Great composition and settings, Gil.
When looking closely, I notice the depth of field, your precise framing and the way you keep details in lights and shadows.
There is experience, thinking and work behind this picture.

Since my retirement, I've been using my spare time (isn't all my time spare at this point?) to go through the stuff I've accumulated in a lifetime and get rid of the irrelevancies. In doing so, I was looking through a box of old contact sheets ranging from high school and college days through my years at the Anchorage Times. And down in the side of that box, I found a used roll of film. It was a bulk roll marked "Anchorage Times" so probably Tri-X from the newspaper's stash -- but what was on it? It would have been shot no later than 1982 -- would any images survive? I took it in to Ken's Camera in Everett, and they were game to try. So on Wednesday I went in and picked up the developed negatives.
The emulsion was badly damaged -- four decades of moving around the country with no refrigeration -- but there were images! A wedding reception ... guests arriving ... by chairlift ... at the top of Alyeska ... many Times people in the photos.
The people at center and right in the foreground of this image were a sports copy editor at the paper, and my boss there. Both were wonderful, hard-working people, and both have passed on now. But we sure had a lot of fun back in those days.
Probably shot with a Nikon F2, Nikkor-S 35mm f2.8, on Tri-X.

I recently was in my hometown in Alaska and shot a bit with a Minolta SR-T202 and a Minolta Celtic MD 35mm f2.8 lens and Fujifilm 200. The camera's meter doesn't work but I carry an old selenium hand-held meter that does OK. My younger sister and two of her children. I've taken a number of portraits at this spot over the years. I like it because it's like having a giant soft box.
