Miscellaneous Shots 2011 - No. 4

I have the 24-300 VR, Christina. Just got it about 1 1/2 months ago and like it a lot.

Thanks Victor, I'll take a look at that one too.

It's almost twice the price, but I like the versatility of the focal length range. But for the long shots you will be looking for in AK, the 70-300 should be fine.

We have a decent 28-70 VR but it would be nice to not have to change lenses and miss a good photo op . Camera is a D100. Although we are tempted to upgrade...can't go to AK without all the right equipment :-) I forget what you have for a camera?

I have the D300S.

enjoy alaska soj - we may be going away and i will upgrade the camera when and if that happens - been hard for me to pull the trigger and spend that kind of money when there are so many jm's available - so does this mean i will be on my own for another lantern?

baby tarantula???? LOL...... IDK but it was BIG

ick

Thanks, Bill. Alaska is not till next summer. Just trying to spread the costs by getting camera equipment this year. So I could probably be persuaded to consider another lantern... ;) I already know where I want one...

Jen, the spider's legs are striped like the garden spider.....it's a helpful critter......

A bit dizzying, but cool.
