    Have a National Park as Your Backdrop

    Yeah, 46er, I was aware of the plans to demolish many of the buildings. I saw a few that needed to be razed. The outer walls folding out like a collapsing accordion, a danger only to hikers foolish enough to venture close. Arson and time will remove most of the buildings before the NPS. Anyway...

    Have a National Park as Your Backdrop

    The Water Gap has many homes with incredible views. I know of a few homesteads, lost in the mountains, that are empty shells, ready to collapse. The views from them are just breath taking. Walpack and the surrounding areas hide them away. When you see them, atleast for me, I think that if I...

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    Thanks, I wanted to buy it from a local store, but that online price is impossible to beat. I am over my budget, but not by much. I jumped right into purchasing this camera, without knowing anything and now learned that photography is about compromises. I can't wait to get the lens and go take...

    New Jersey Invites You to Come and See It All

    I agree Alacatraz was a very cool place to visit, especially the evening tour of the island. San Francisco and the bay area is gorgeous. Another prison that is a nice visit is the Ohio State Reformatory. It is the prison were Shaw Shank Redemption was filmed.

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    Thanks for all of the help so far. As of now, I am still undecided. I going through picture upon picture at the following link, trying to get a feel of what to expect from different lenses. (I am leaning more towards the Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM.)...

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    Chrisr, how fast is the autofocus on the 15-85 and how smooth is the manual focus ring? Any lens creep?

    Buzby's is up for sale.....

    Spung-Man, I was going to question if any impact studies or cultural surveys were done, but your last post confirmed my suspicions, that nothing of the sort happened. Do any Special Area Ordinances (SAO) exist in Richland Village, that could possibly be used as leverage to limit development?

    Buzby's is up for sale.....

    The concept drawing of Richland Village is sad. It looks like one of the "towns" from Disney World.

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    Yuppers, that is the camera(body) I purchased. It is more camera than I need at the moment, but that leaves room for growth. I'm going to have become more serious and understand the how/when of certain settings. It sounds fun and challenging. (Yeah I know it should be 60D)

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    Dogg57, we are thinking alike. The 50mm f1.4 and moderate zoom 28-135 f3.5 lenses are the two options I came up with too. I need to look outside of the Canon line and see what other companies are offering. Maybe I can get more for my money with another company. There are to many choices and I...

    Ruts?

    Adam, a plow, such as this, can also be used to make fire cuts. The one pictured happens to be mounted on a 'dozer used by the Forest Service stationed at Double Trouble.

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    I failed to mention that most of my photographs are of landscapes, wildlife, and architecture. I am sure that is an important detail. I was interested in the Canon EF 50mm f1.4 USM but I thought I might need more zoom. I'm not sure.

    Be careful out there...

    Check your local newspaper. Newsapers are going to have a portion within their paper where they regularly list any police announcements or your local police department website.

    Canon D60 Lense Question

    I have been looking at entry level DSLR cameras for the past year, but I have been hesitant on making a purchase because I already had two digital cameras. My faithful Olympus Sp-350 and a new Olympus Pen have served me well. Fate, as it maybe, has opened up the opportunity for me to buy a new...

    MarkBNJ, that test could present a problem. What if you have low standards and high expectations? (The Wingman Law):D

    Bald eagles thriving

    Since I have seen eagles in person, I have noticed that most of the time on television, especially older westerns, that the editors have used the wrong vocals for the animal. They sound nothing alike. The first time a heard an eagle screech in person, I was puzzled to what I had heard. Only...
