Telephoto ZOO

Last summer I’ve visited ZOO in Cracow. Equipped with telephoto lenses I was hoping to get some interesting shots. It was a good lesson to me as I usually don’t shoot animals. Results aren’t as good as I was hoping for, but I’d like to share them anyway. #1 http://hawk.furud.net/files/photoblog/DSC0...

Vincent the cat

Hello! As usual I wasn't posting for a long time :-) In my first post in year 2011 I’ll tell you a story of poor cat. Don’t worry, it will have happy ending. Second week of November 2010 was pretty cold here. It was rainy and temperature at night was falling down to 2-3 degrees celsius. On one day I...

Can Sony 18-55mm SAM lens do macro?

Hello after yet another few weeks of my absence! I wish I could post more often, but I simply don't have enough time these days. I hope you won't mind posting copy of my lens micro test here. Recently I bought Sony 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 SAM lens also known as new kit lens. It has quite nice minimum focus...

Re: Dunajec river near Stary Sacz

Thanks Doc and Yildiz!

Here is promised last set of Dunajec photos. From all images taken on that single day (not weekly-time-lapse ;-)) I like those two most.

Re: Dunajec river near Stary Sacz

Indeed light and skies aren't as good as in first set. Thats because all from second set were shoot more directly towards sun. Thanks for visiting again Birma :-)

Dunajec river near Stary Sacz

Photos below are ones of the first taken with my 16-105mm lens back in May. When I was going back from work I stopped near Stary Sacz and took a walk to St. Kinga bridge hoping to shoot some river landscapes.
