NB, Nikon has selected lenses on sale ("instant rebate"), both primes and zooms. The much loved 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR is $2,599 including the $200 rebate :eek: Suspect the monitor will just end up being covered with drool ;) I want that lens soooooo much! But like you will probably jus...

Jan, what Epson Printer do you have? What is the largest format it will print? Cost per (large) print. It is an Epson Surecolor P800 Max Resolution: 2880 x 1440 dpi Max Print Size: 17 x 22" (Sheet Media) Print Speed: 8 x 10" in 113 Seconds Borderless Printing at up to 17" Wide Epson ...

Jan & PJ

Very nice photo along with what the printer produced! Thank you! The 70-200... I have that lens (blush) but I solved some of the cost "problem" by getting it refurbished from Nikon. Still wasn't inexpensive but less costly than full price new (and I've had mine a few years now). I was loo...

They are all lovely Suzon! I love the weeping rock and the forest and you can't go wrong with any photo with equids in them ;). Don't feel bad, life gets busy. The only reason I've had time to get on here lately is I'm recovering from some broken ribs. Can't wait to get out this year with my newest ...

Jan & PJ

Thanks WMW. I'm using Cyberlink Photo director. It does have a lot of presets, I just haven't learned how to use them yet. I need to take a class or do a tutorial on that program. I tried LR but it seemed less intuitive than this one. I guess it is just what you get used to. LR may have many more fu...

Jan & PJ

And one more of my favorites...

Jan & PJ

And a couple more with my D5500 and same Tamron lens

Jan & PJ

A couple more with the same combo.

Jan & PJ

Thanks WMW! I don't use LR but have a similar program that I'm trying to learn as I go. Who knew you could save different export settings. Here are some recent shots with my D500 with the Tamron 150-600. Still learning this camera too.

Jan & PJ

Well, I would post more pics on here but it always says the size is too large and when I decrease the size it is tiny in the post. How are you all posting those big beautiful pictures? I'm lost. LOL

Jan & PJ

I am enjoying the totally amazing photography here. Hopefully I'll have some time to post some when I get tired of playing with my new toys. I did break down and get the Epson P800 printer and I love it. The variety of papers is endless including canvas that can be mounted or stretched. I'll try to ...

Jan & PJ

Jan & JP, I'll be interested in seeing comments on the printer. No, I can't justify the cost but always like to learn more. I would be curious what you'll be using the prints for? Fine art sales or portrait-type photo packages or ?? Both fine art and portraits. I'm looking at the P 800 because ...

Jan & PJ

I haven't been on here for a while and I see I have a lot of catching up to do! Just skimming through it looks like there is a lot of great information on here. Does anyone print their own prints? I'm looking at getting a decent printer and leaning towards the Epson P800? Anyone have any first hand ...

Jan & PJ

Even with an unlimited data plan for my phone we still use broadband at the house with my laptop because of the bigger screen. We also have a TV with the adapter that can use the broadband to stream Netflix which I watch a lot.

Jan & PJ

Very beautiful property. Looking forward to more photos and updates.

Jan & PJ

Yes, you can put a DX lens on FX (full frame) sensor but there are potential downsides with respect to either not using all of your full frame sensor or vignetting in the corners, either of which may or may not be a problem for you. I can put FX lenses on my DX camera. No downside except they are a...

Jan & PJ

I chose a hobbyist level Nikon based on weight and the availability of lenses and price. A lot has to do with what type of photography you want to do. I looked at sensor size as well and went for just under the full sized sensor for wildlife photography. I ended up with the Nikon D5500 and I'm not d...

Jingles for continued healing.

Jan & PJ

Barnaby is gorgeous!

Jan & PJ

Thank you all. Alex, the previous owners got her from a lady that never socialized her as a puppy. They did quite a bit of obedience training and socialization with her but were reserved about her progress. I would not be surprised if she were trained or tested for Schutzhund and failed with her noi...

I'll try PMs again after i post more to give you phone #.

Found it, thanks!

First of all, Belgian Malinois are notorious for being one of THE most difficult breeds out there, period. They are famous for aggressiveness and also for singlemindedness -- ie the car chasing, etc. So keep that in mind - you're struggling with a very difficult personality, the kind of dog that ev...

Jan & PJ

Thanks for all the input. My previous mal had me spoiled, not that I expect this dog to be just like her but Figi was so easy. Once she was introduced to someone she was awesome. I never had to worry about her with the kids that came to visit. I won't let this girl anywhere around kids anymore. The ...

Jan & PJ

Let me start by saying I've always had dogs. I have shown in obedience for around 20 years. I have a Belgian Malinois that I've had since she was a year old and now is around 10. She was obedience trained when I got her but she wasn't very obedient with us so I took her to obedience classes. She did...

Jan & PJ

Best of luck!!

Jan & PJ

Sending lots of good healing wishes to you!

Jan & PJ

What an awesome surprise!! Congrats on the new camera. I think you'll love digital. Have fun. Can't wait to see some pics!!

Jan & PJ

Short of a custom saddle I've had good luck with he Circle Y Extra Wide Flex Tree saddles. Different western saddles fit differently. One manufacturer's full QH bars may be narrower than another. I would measure from bar to bar near the front of the saddle. Most are 6" some are 6.5". You m...

Jan & PJ

Good grief Bascar! How much can one person take? And with such grace? You are amazing.

Jan & PJ

I forgot to say that I *always* shoot on fully manual settings. I don't leave anything up to the camera to decide, I want full control :) That said - as long as you're getting good results it doesn't matter, it's more like a personal choice /opinion on how one wants to approach it. Jan & PJ -- ...

Jan & PJ

Great tips SnowHorse. Thank you so much for generously sharing all of this wonderful info!! I can't tell you how much is appreciated. I'm also stalking...er...following you on FAA. I have so much to learn. Got my first DSLR this time last year and I can tell my photography is improving but not quiet...

Jan & PJ

Thanks for all the info SnowHorse. I have only sold things to friends on FFA and not much of that. I do have enough images on there that some of my art is showing up under searches. Usually on about page 14. Not sure how many people browse that far lol. Stock photography sounds interesting.

Jan & PJ

Great updates. I love how versatile your cowpony is!! Looking forward to more updates!

Jan & PJ

I do some outdoor equine portrait photography and really want those nice quality photographs. I had a fairly inexpensive 200mm zoom lens that was working for me but left it in the rain one day. :roll: I may just get another one to replace it but have really wanted that 70-200 for a long time and thi...

Jan & PJ

Thanks! I'm using a Nikon 70-200 2.8. It has VR, which I rarely ever use, but having it would be nice for portrait photography. I have a 50 mm (nifty fifty) and 35 mm that I use for portrait work. I mostly use the 35mm on my crop sensor and the 50 on my full frame. I like primes for portraits, but ...

Jan & PJ

RTR, what lens are you using in your roping pics? Amazing photos! No blur on the ropes whatsoever. I'm looking for a new portrait lens (for equine photography). Just tried Nikon 18-300 DX version and it was very soft with my D5500 camera. Still looking :/

Jan & PJ

Wow! They can tell us so much if we just know how to listen. What an incredible experience.

Jan & PJ

I agree with Paints and Literiding. Those items would make a neat shadowbox.

Jan & PJ

Wow! I just looked back at Dallas's blaze, Dallas and Ditto could be twins!

Jan & PJ

I would post a photo of this mare's daughter but it keeps saying photo too large and I've done everything I know to reduce the size :/. Ah! Got it this time.

Jan & PJ

I love Dallas. I have had a couple of sorrels that look a lot like him and have had the pink area on the eyes too. Since they were mother and daughter I figured it was hereditary. The vets just said it was fine and to watch it. Never masked them or anything. The older one lived to be 29 without any ...

Jan & PJ

I'm so excited for you RTR. Looking forward to a full review

Jan & PJ

Thanks WMW!

Jan & PJ

I have heard some bad things about the Kaufman pen. I adopted Jasmine through Cie Sadgeny. She typically represents the horses truthfully (some have been older than her estimates) and posts videos of the kids or adults riding them depending on what they are appropriate for. The vids are great for lo...

A week ago I had the amazing experience of watching about 40 Swainson's hawks hunting over our pasture. It is most likely a once in a lifetime experience. I did happen to have my camera with me and got some fairly nice pics.

Jan & PJ

Wow WMW! Those photos just pop! What's your secret?

Jan & PJ

RTR and WMW I LOVE the pics you are taking with your new lenses! Amazing!

Jan & PJ

Noooooo, she's not WP-bred, not at all. Certainly looks like cow horse/ranch breeding though, so she should make a bridle horse for you. You'll really like Brent Graef, he's a great guy and teacher (forgive me if you already know that, just stating the obvious!) I love Brent! I've done every clinic...
