Trying out the new camera. Last new one was five years ago. I like to take the new one and do shoots I've done before to see if operationally things have change much. They haven't... except I have to be much steadier with a higher pixel count. Kauffman Gardens beckoned today. It was suppose to be sunny all day but clouds were the norm when I arrived this morning.
All shots taken with the Nikon D800. Closeups were with the Nikon 105mm Macro, wide angles with the Nikon 14-24mm, and medium shots were with the Nikon 70-200mm. Most all were at ASA 800 to allow for very high shutter speeds as I was hand-holding everything.
Very first picture is multiple images (5) stitched together in Photoshop.
Love the detail in the new camera. It has a 36 megapixel, full-sized sensor which means medium format quality in a 35mm body. It also means it doesn't like camera shake.
Above, a duck dropped in.... literally.

Gardens on a Monday
Had a few minutes before visiting the Kansas City Young Matron's today so I stopped by Kauffman Gardens. Always something new. Perfect weather.
All these were taken with the Nikon D3 and 24-70mm lens, ASA200, F16, multiple shots sandwiched.
Lots of new flowers and benches in the "greenhouse"... didn't see Crazy the Cat though, hope she's alright.
The roses are already underway... about two weeks early I think.... but I'll leave that guess to the experts.
