Dad's new camera

Today we (Tara, Shelby, Mom, Allison and Erik) gave Dad his birthday gift, as well as his Father’s Day and part of his Anniversary gift (his part). We gave Dad a new Digital SLR Camera. A Nikon D40. So now we have 3 Nikon’s in the Family. Tara has a D70, I have a D80 and Dad has a D40. Dad taught is much about photography when we were younger, Tara and I even used his old Pentax for our photography classes over the years. We learned to love taking photos from our Dad. And since he had been using my 12+ year old Kodak 240 we figured that it was time for him to upgrade. Since we all have Nikon’s we can easily share lenses. Continue reading Photo-A-Day #793 06/10/07

Kayaking on Long Pond

Yesterday morning I went out for a nice paddle on Long Pond in Falmouth, MA. I hadn’t been kayaking all week although I had my boat on my car all week long and carted it to and from work each day in hopes that I would get on the water. But I did not, things prevented me from being able to do so.

I took my video camera and my Canon Sd800is with me. This time I went with the intention of making Wired Kayaker Podcast #4. This time I went and documented the two areas where people can go and park. Then I filmed my intro and also filmed with the camera facing the bow and the water. I am going to try something different with Episode #4. I am going to do some voice over in the podcast. That way I can write a script and things would sound a little better. There will still be me in my cowboy hat chatting about what I see on the water.

I met a kayak fisherman on the water too. He had his own homemade rig for two rods and a work platform for his tackle box. He was having good luck on Long Pond too.

Episode three may or may not be up sometime this week. I am heading to Canada tomorrow and probably won’t have much time, but I will try and get something up. Then Episdoe #4 will come the week or so afterwards. Still no article in the newspaper and it has been two weeks. I wonder when it will be released.

Here are some photos from yesterday’s paddle.
