Dave, I think the park service does a pretty good job of keeping things clean and tidy. When we were on the boardwalk there was a person with a blower clearing off the leaves and debris. Looked like an all afternoon job. That red and orange flower looks nice. Yeah, the background probably does make the image look darker.
24 to 960 is a lot of range Rich. I can do that with 2 bodies and 2 lenses but not just one. Speaking of long lenses, I noticed that I really felt that 150-600mm lens more than I ever had yesterday. Really had my shoulder aching. I'm sure age is a factor but I'm hoping to get out more and get "back in shape".
Flowers blooming already and I think it is going to get cold again. I know that I will have to immediately winterize the trailer as soon as I get home tomorrow, or Sunday at the latest because it is supposed to get below freezing Monday night in Columbus.
I have about 7 or 8 4x5 sheets to process and one roll of 120 to do. I can only do 6 sheets at a time so I will have to do 2 tanks of chemicals for the 4x5 film. I will probably do a roll of 35mm along with the 120 so I can save a little time there.
Here is one of the historic churches we visited, along with a shot of the Pressman set up for a shot of the church. Hope it comes out on film.
About time to get the charcoal going - grilling some steaks for our last night here. We will get on the road as early as we can in the morning, within reason of course. I'm going to stop by a CAT scale and weigh the trailer and truck, just out of curiosity. See y'all.
