OMG!!!

Summit Lake. Near Mt Evans, Colorado, 2013

That is about all I have to say now that I have had a chance to open up and work some of the RAW files from my new D800. (Previously posted D800 images were merely tweaks to the in-camera JPEGs.) The detail, the clarity, the dynamic range, what you can pull from the shadows, is…well…VEWY, VEWY impwessive. Certainly a huge step up from the D90!

These images simply cannot be appreciated on the web (as above). You have to see them at their full size to experience the complete photographic, orgasmic delight.

My blog entries will likely be short over the next few days as I get used to the new workflow and get the printer up and running. There is a huge learning curve staring me down like a mangy, rabid, dog…no, wait. Bad simile. A mangy dog would be very unpleasant, no? This learning curve will be a bit more enjoyable than that. Maybe what I’m staring at is more like a reluctant, recalcitrant, well-groomed, 220-pound, Saint Bernard.
