Peter, the tool is near & dear to me since buying new in the 80s. Its always done a better job than I have.
I love this composition, and your holding onto the highlight detail is tremendous. The actor at the end is icing on the cake.
I know what you mean, Peter. People look at me like I'm crazy for laying on the ground to get shots. This whole aging & mortality thing was grossly oversold.
That's an eye-catching perspective -- I like it!
Sorry about your knees (I know that feeling), but at least you got something worthwhile to show for it.
No pain no gain. My favorite tri pod at the moment is a wee tiny one about 8" at full height.
Nice shot, like whale bones. Like how you got a person in the end of the tunnel.
I bought an f2 last week, should arrive next week, hopefully it functions well.
