A few new photos from the D700



After a couple weeks with the new camera I've found a new interest in night time photography. I attempted to shoot the meteor shower but only caught one before the winds became chilling up Hobble Creek Canyon. It was nearly 2 am when I left before the most concentrated numbers would be seen. But the camera performed beyond what I thought would be possible and gone was the guessing I use to do in night time photographs. I've included two of the many. My first shooting star can be seen just above the mountain. The other one is from Springville looking towards Salem. I must be doing something wrong because every jpg I upload to the blog seems to be of a lesser quality. Just click the photo for a better look.

Wow. Fantastic shots Jared.

Thanks William, but I can't show some of my favorites since they involve some objects that where manufactured by a large company without any photos that compare to what I've captured. Once I hit the said company up for some possible $$ in exchange for use I may be able to have them declassified for others to enjoy.

I ate some N. Carolina barbecue where the old Brand X burger was in Springville. Not bad. Even if one can't stop they have the meat cooking out front next to the street in a giant pig smoker. Owners are from N. Carolina.

I'll have to check it out next time I'm in town. Thanks for the heads up.
