Hymettos Mountain on fire and nature reborn.

15 – 6 – 2009 fire on Hymettos mountain just over the last buildings at Glyfada / Voula. Almost every year we have to deal with those fires.

Almost a year after we went to photograph the nature reborn. Sad but true, trees need many years to be at same size as before. Still, Spring gives hope with all those flowers and grass.

D700 does Kosta jr

I really like D700 ability to shoot low light indoor (any low light hi iso) family moments.

I used AF 70-200 Tamron f2,8 (IF) Macro lens, well known for its quite good optical performance. I think its great lens to use, especially if very fast moving photography isn’t your main job.

I used RAW Developer 1.8.9 .

what is wrong with me … ?

Hope I should knew … he he, well after one full year of inactivity I’m trying to warm a bit my Blog, the last two years I was very busy so I couldn’t post or I forgot to do so … with all every day madness …

I will try to change that and promise to post more often my thoughts and photographs.

I had to deliver few photos instantly so I was forced to shoot at jpeg mode that time.

And to be honest I never tried it before. All I can say is that its great for fast candid shoots but for best quality Raw is the key as usual.

Jpeg is usable for not so big prints and mail or web usage.

I wish for Raw+Jpeg setting … Sigma are you listening?

spooky images …
