Awesome pipe. Good on you. Glad to hear he is doing better.

Meershaum tip: Light carefully. It burns easily. I ruined mine.

Glad you said that. I forgot about the no touch. It will get stained with the oils from your hands/fingers. Display is the way to go.

I went to Puerto Rico with my wife for the wedding of her best friend's son. It was a big wedding and they had it covered with 2 photographers and a crew of video shooters so I just took pictures more for me, some of which I will put on a CD and send to the newly weds.

Anyway the reception was in a super dark room mostly lit with colored spot lights, neon like lights and candles. So I took a lot of pictures using my 85mm 1.2 lens and set the ISO way up to like 12,000!

So here are 2 examples of the shots I took and some blown up details just to show how amazing the Canon sensor in my camera is as well as the lens although the depth of field was very slim. I was impressed!

I'm envious.

My Panasonic gets tons of noise set at 400.

Other than that, it's a neat camera.

Damn Chris ... I took about 50 pics yesterday trying to get one - JUST ONE - worthy of posting here.
Guess I'll go over to the NON-quality images thread....


Seriously, Its people like you who take pics like those which never cease to impress me.
Good on you! Great pics.

One of my favorite places to visit when in Seattle is Pike's Place Market. But to get shots without crowds of tourists and shoppers you need to be there real early!

The weird news thread reminded me of this one, which I took a few weeks ago on the fringes of Dartmoor.
