Recapturing enthusiasm

Like most people, I have owned
a camera for most of my adult
life. It is only in the last 18
months that I have taken a
keener interest, upgrading
from my Nikon D40 to a Nikon
D7000. During this last 18
months, I have enjoyed the
odd day away with my father,
together with our cameras.
Sadly, he passed away on 1st
May this year due to cancer. I
lost a little of my enthusiasm
afterwards, not really picking up
my camera until I purchased my
first copy of N-Photo Magazine,
issue 51. The main feature, Take
It Slow, inspired me to pick up
my camera again, and gave
me the opportunity to use my
ND1000 filter for the first time.
I went up to the Yorkshire Dales,
to West Burton and Aysgarth,
and had a go at capturing the
waterfalls there, thoroughly
enjoying my day out. My only
regret was my father not being
there with me.
Dave Craven, Hull, UK

It’s great that you’re enjoying
getting out with your camera
again, even though undertaking
a previously-shared activity
alone does bring a certain
sadness. You’ve taken some
superb pictures with the help
of that ND filter – thanks for
sharing them with us, and keep
picking that D7000 up!

Waiting game

This is one of my favourite bird

photos I have taken. I was on

an island with a single pine tree

where this American Bald Eagle

would often roost. I had to watch

for the raptor to approach and

then quickly get my eye to the

viewfinder and be sure the focus

was tack sharp. I sat ready for

his landing for over two hours,

and was not sure I got the shot

since it all happened so fast.

Dave Murphy, Minnesota, USA

But it was worth the wait!

Testing, testing

Rating tripods without including

ReallyRightStuff products is

absurd – oops, sorry, they are

not one of your advertisers...

Robert Coley, via email

We try to cover as wide a

range of products as possible.

In this case, the firm in

question doesn’t have a UK

distributor, so we’ve been

unable to get kit for testing –

and we won’t rate anything

we haven’t tested ourselves.
