Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. (Psalm 23). I have no idea why this squalor which is endemic in my area should make me think of the comfort of the 23rd Psalm. Canon EF 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5 lens on a Canon EOS 30D camera. ISO 800; f/10; 1/320th; lens at 64mm (field of view equivalent 102mm).

Majestic. Statuesque. Indomitable. Unbowed. Undefeated. Dandelions are one of the most vital early spring nectar sources for a wide host of pollinators. You can eat every part of a dandelion. However, eating the roots has a strong diuretic effect. The name comes from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth". Canon EF 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5 lens on a Canon EOS 30D camera

Canon EF 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5 lens on a Canon EOS 30D camera. ISO 400; f/11; 1/640th; lens at 82mm (field of view equivalent 131mm). I was not following the Sunny 16 rule but I guess it would have worked for this situation.

I have replaced my Canon EF 35-105mm lens; the first one was in bad shape from the moment I took possession but it cost me nothing and educated me over what a fine optic this is. The replacement has light scratches on the front element but for all practical purposes they don't impair performance. Canon made three lenses in the 35-105mm configuration. The one to seek out is the first, an f/3.5-4.5 formula with a trombone action. The others bottom out at f/5.6 which is not much of a light gatherer. I use mine on a Canon EOS 30D which is ancient and where 35-105mm translates as 56-168mm. It would not suit everybody.

DX lens. FX camera. Doh!

My subscription to ipernity has lapsed. Even though the transfer of the business to a members' association has now been authorised, communication with members is poor. The former management increased the price of subscription shortly before relinquishing the reins; I wondered why that was necessary if he was passing the website to new people. Nor did I think the new price represented particularly good value from my personal point of view. So I am left in limbo with access to only a fraction of my catalogue. Fortunately my photographs are stored elsewhere anyway. I am thinking seriously of deleting my account. Should I do so, I would like to thank the many ipernity members who have warmly and politely exchanged opinions and information with me. The quality of this site is very good, but it is a small community which would benefit from the activity and breadth of experience that more people could bring to it.
