Totally a starting QB in 2030

I didn't want to be the one that said it....

No new pics yet, but I'm ordering a nikon 18-200 lens to replace my stock 18-55.  This should help quite a bit, but buying a lens that costs more than the camera still feels a little weird.

Got the lens today, looks pretty sweet, hopefully I'll be able to get up to the stadium tomorrow and try it out.

Awesome stuff WNK, I love the Nike cross-branding everywhere.  Looking forward to the next set of pics.

It's actually the first version.  I found a guy that had it sitting in his closet since he bought it in 2007 so it's basically brand new and I got him down to $350.  I guess the VRII is almost identical to the first.

I'm also putting together a "strobist" setup.  Are you into that at all?  Just bought all the equipment so I can start experimenting with that soon.

it's definitely the way to go if you're doing a lot of portrait photography, etc.  i don't do any flash stuff right now so i can't be of help.  i'm sure you've already checked out his blog on it.

Awesome, will do.  I wonder if there's enough interest to keep a photography thread going?

Lately people have been trying to use my camera to take pictures of me and the baby.  Needless to say I now have tons of poorly framed, blurry pictures of me and the baby.

I just went up to the stadium and it seemed like I got a few good pictures, but I haven't put them on the computer yet.  There was nobody working at all.  I know I'm probably someone who should know this, but are they continuing with construction during the season?

I appreciate the heads up and I know somebody else mentioned this to me at one time, but I can't seem to find any info on my end to fix it.  None of my browsers give me an alert, google hasn't flagged it, and I use virustotal.com which checks 29 different virus scanners but it's clean on every one.  If it gives you any more details let me know.

Also, I can't read what it says in the red box on your screen cap, that may give me some info if you can provide it.

the reported infection is  js downloader gen bhv.      looks like it could be a false positive, but it also could be ad-related if you have any ads.
