The half-built house across the street is like a great big laboratory for learning the in’s and out’s of the new Nikon. I saw this row of nails lying flopped on top of a box and the first thing I thought was “depth of field”. So I switched the camera to aperture priority and started playing.
This shot is unmodified. This is how the camera saw it.

There is a half-constructed house across the street that’s fallen victim to the local housing crunch. Yesterday I went over there to check out the lights and lines of what the builders have left behind. I’ll be posting more of those shots later once I have a little time to assess them.
As I was leaving through the open garage, I discovered that a couple of swallows had made the garage their new home. They weren’t very happy with me being there, either. They took off then circled around to dive bomb me, one after the other. I caught one of them with a panning shot as it started it’s turn.
