Thanks.
I shoot using an older Nikon D-200 DSLR and the lens I use most of the time is a Nikon 17-55 2.8 lens, I shoot only in raw format and use Nikon Edit to convert to jpg.
I also use Photoshop and Photomatrix to edit the pictures to get what I am looking for.
Lot of good info on YouTube.
Thanks again.
Mr.Bill

I have travelled thru Nevada from time to time when I was working.
I always enjoyed the whole state. The snow was pretty in the
winter but the mountain roads could get scary.

Thanks, That station has been abandoned for as long as I can remember, My son says it was used in a movie at one time, He seems to think it was Terminator.

The gas station pic would make a nice poster.

Thanks for the insight, sir. I've looked at the D3000 and D5000 starter packages at Costco but just haven't pulled the trigger on one yet. If I remember correctly the D-200 is a higher end DSLR is it not? Pretty sure it would be higher end than either of the ones I've looked at. I know from back in my 35mm days that I always have liked the Nikons better than the Cannons. Again, very nice images and thanks for sharing.

Yes the D-200 is a bit of an upgrade.

It's interesting to see the evolution of your car. I like the later iterations best.

Great pics of your car, Bill. You're lucky to have so many places to use as a backdrop for the shots.
