Evan's photography phun

[Wayne Little]

Thanks again gents. Check this out, a little blurb about me on the ANN news page:

ANN's 'Who's Who' At Oshkosh: Eric Van Gilder | Aero-News Network

Awesome Eric!

What a wild few weeks it has been! Oshkosh was amazing, as always. The weather was spotty, but when the sun was out, it was magic for photos. I was home for a week, then off to the Sierras for a week. It's good to be home! I have a lot of photos that I have been going through. Here is something that I thought was cool. Within two weeks of each other, I was able to capture 2 different Ospreys, the feathered kind, and the aluminum kind.

Cool, Eric!

Excellent shots (as always!) and as far as the trip up to the Sierras, were you able to get in some shots of the old abandoned structures that dot the Mother Lode, or did you stick to the more travelled areas?

We didn't make it to Bodie this year, but we did get up to the Mammoth Consolidate mine and the Hayden house.

Beauty!

Thanks guys. I plan on doing more shooting, at least once a week. I took quite a bit of time off before and after the Shingles, so it feels good to be back on it.

Great article Eric well desired, congrats.

 

[GrauGeist]

Love that country up there!

I would certainly enjoy getting out to more areas, but I don't...this wreck last year has really ruined things for me...

Anyway, great shots, especially like the B&W

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Excellent shots! Really like the water falls. And with Dave on the B&W.

 

[Shinpachi]

Great nature!

 

[Wildcat]

Beautiful scenery Eric! Lovely shots mate.

Very nice. I really like the osprey - feathered.

As much as I love the Nikon 200-400mm lens, it is a heavy beast. After shooting all morning with it, my hand had the impression on the zoom ring ridges!

 

[Shinpachi]

Nikon site tells not only awesome weight but price!

 

[Gnomey]

Well I'm sure the shots that resulted were worth it...

Used to have the same issue with my old Canon AE1 with a 200mm marco/zoom that was all of 1 ft long. Now I am showing my age but it made a good battering ram for would be bag snatchers round Europe.

Need to tough'n up.
