About Dave and Linda

We have been traveling for many years and finally got tired of bringing home bad photographs,

so we decided to get a decent camera and learn about photography. We went to the library,

checked out stacks of books and magazines and did a lot of reading. We also started to look

at other peoples photographs and went to The Center for Creative Photography in Tucson to

see some exhibits. They had an Ansel Adams and an Edward Weston exhibit, both were amazing!

Since we enjoy hiking and four-wheel drive adventures we primarily shoot nature and landscapes,

it's the only thing that will sit still long enough for Dave to get his camera settings figured out!

If you have comments, questions, or suggestions e-mail us at thelenscap@cox.net

Thanks for looking.

a 105-210mm zoom; and a 300mm lens and polarizers. A bellows unit with an 80mm or a 150mm is used to do

macro work with flowers and rocks. Linda uses Fuji 50 slides and Dave uses Fuji 50 slides, Kodak

About the Pictures

No color adjustments were made when these pictures were scanned, only slight exposure adjustments to match

the original prints. No color filters or enhancer's are used, only polarizers to cut glare and saturate colors.

Some of the moons are double exposures and some are real time.
