Nature

The birds and the bees... Although there's not that much nature around where I live, I do try to capture it from time to time.

Three Queens Meet

(Bart Willems) — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 04:41:00 GMT

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: the Queen Elizatbeth II, the Queen Mary II and the Queen Victoria meet at the New York harbor.

Unfortunately the meeting got delayed by about 90 minutes. In those 90 minutes, the weather turned from stormy, freezing cold, to stormy, freezing cold, with a solid downpour.

Taking shots of the QV and the QE2 was impossible with the rain limiting visibility (and entering the lens almost horizontally) - I couldn't get anything more than some shots of the Queen Mary II.

Slide Copier

(Bart Willems) — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 23:11:00 GMT

Recently I bought a slide copier. It's not world quality that comes out of it - but at least it gives me the opportunity to digitize slide pictures in a quick and easy way.
Some caveats apply as well. The manufacturer claims that a focal length between 100 and 150 on a digital (APS-C size) SLR is needed - I learned that a 35mm (although I can probably push it to 50) lens gave the best results!
This gallery is a sample of pictures that were copied with the slide copier.
