Is that a Nissan Leaf? ;-)
Thank you. Yes, modern cameras make it very easy (plus one's not wasting film when one experiments). I have two Nikon DSLRs, both entry-level (cheap) DX-format bodies. The wonderful thing, IMO, about Nikon is that they've maintained compatibility backwards to 1959 with their cameras to date -- almost any Nikon "F" mount lens ever made will work (manually, of course, in many cases) on even the modern "F" mount DSLRs. ... and there is plenty of excellent Nikkor glass available; much of it at very attractive prices.

Going to do some astrophotography, then? Looking forward to some photos!
Man those are awesome photos, as are all the ones you post!!
What kind of camera(s) do you use?
PS My son is the real photographer in the family, as you may recall: http://icouldbeahero.blogspot.com

I think it well could be a Leaf.

Just finished repairs to this Air Tight ATM-1 and now get the pleasure of burning it in on the bench today. This unit was modified by Tom Tutay who I spoke with several times during the repair process. Very nice and helpful guy.

@mhardy6647,
I think you did post it earlier in this thread (or one very like it).
No matter, it is definitely worth a second and third, etc., look!

Got back Thursday from a roadtrip/vacation. Drop our oldest son off at Humboldt State up in northern CA for his sophomore year, checked out the surrounding sites, then headed down the 101 via the Avenue of the Giants (scenic bypass thru the CA redwoods) and on into Sonoma County wine country for some wine tasting.

Nice.
We made that trip (once) back when we lived in the Sillycon Valley (1991, to be precise). We went to Lassen and Shasta (stayed in Redding) and on the homeward trip we meandered over to the coast and then back down to lovely :-P Milpitas.
The homeward leg of the trip was a long freaking drive -- beautiful, though. -
Great shots!
The natural beauty of California is astounding, and not just in a few places and not just of a few kinds -- valleys, canyons, mountains, seashore, bays, magnificent trees, etc.
But that beauty must do something strange to the minds of inhabitants. I lived there for almost a decade, and I couldn't wait to get back to the East, which has its own set of problems. However, I'll take four seasons and more conventional values, as well as a modicum of frugality, or as I like to call it, "Yankee thrift."
Well, except with respect to stereo equipment!

Yeah, Mrs. H and I figured out pretty quickly that we weren't Californians! -

Sounds like people are also sick of paying high taxes in California and are moving elsewhere like Texas. Who was it that called California the land of fruits and nuts?
