    A Night Star Mountain Landscape

    I was about to ask about the shooting star. So that's the view from your back yard???dang! Nice shot! I think bringing down the mountains would fit the feel of the shot a little better, make them more moody. There is also a little fuzziness along the line where the two shot where merged along...

    New Bike Garage

    Nice shed! Nice looking chopper back there T Low. I used a couple double bike stands along the garage wall but they do take some room.

    FJ40 frame

    I've located a 71 that is complete but apparently has bad rust on the frame. I've not been able to look it over but I might this weekend. I'm familiar with frame swaps on series Rovers-is the 40 similar? Is a frame swap something common?

    Experts: Ansel Adams photos found at garage sale worth $200 million

    Thanks for the article post- I was thinking about this last night and kept coming up with that it was too good to be true and so it probably wasn't.

    Gulf Coast Life

    That must have been a large female shark to go after a tarpon that large. I recall watching Flip Pallot fishing for tarpon in the keys with I think Stu Apt (big salt water fly fishing guys) Flip hooked a large tarpon, fought it for a good period and finally had it boat side. Stu (I think?) was...

    The last roll of Kodachrome

    IIRC the Kodachrome process is time intensive (i.e. expensive) and not exactly envrio friendly due to the chemicals but I think it's the cost and lack of film sales that caused Kodak to stop production. I've got a box of slides from about 20 years ago that still look incredible. Anyone try...

    Experts: Ansel Adams photos found at garage sale worth $200 million

    I caught the news story when I was on vacation last week-very nice find for that guy. Pretty nice that the plates survived as well as the seller didn't have them stored in any special way.

    1990 K5 Blazer -- 4 cyl Cummins

    That's an interesting conversion choice. You would think it would have been easier to do the 6.2 GM mill.

    Any built 300tdi D1 owners here?

    There is a guy named Dale that goes by Rovertrader here and I know he's had a few diesel Disco's. I'm not sure if they were 1's or 2's.

    Surfing Beginner

    If you get the bug that 237 will be headed downward and you'll have a blast-win/win. + 100 the long board, when I learned it was on a triple fin 6"6' board-not easy, I wish long boards where around then but you could only find short boards here in the East Coast until maybe 10 years ago. Long...

    Congrats! I sure wish I didn't live a couple thousand miles away so I could make it to the show.

    Best value tripod?

    Thanks to all for the advice. I bought a Gitzo GT2830 with an Arca Swiss Z1 QR Sunday-ordered from Adorama. Come on brown truck!! This is from the new Basalt line from Gitzo-it's still carbon fiber but it has some basalt added to the mix that drop the price a couple hundred-it also has...

    Best value tripod?

    Yeah the Z1 can be had with a screw lock and a flip lock (QR), there is a price difference but it's not huge.

    Best value tripod?

    Thanks Trevor, that's a great option. You're right the spec's are almost the same as the 2531 and are overall better than the Manfrotto plus it's not very much more than the Manfrotto. I've bought a few things from Adorama lately and they have been great so I'm planning to buy from them this...

    Best value tripod?

    Ok, I am going to buy today (yeah profit sharing!) I've got it down to two choices; Manfrotto O55CX PRO 3 CF and Gitzo 2531 Looking at the spec's side by side the Manfrotto has a little more max height,lower min height. Load cap favors Gitzo by 9-10 lbs and Gitzo's warranty is by far better...
