This blog is an ARTISTIC regional photo journal. I focus on mundane scenes. ANY AND ALL STATEMENTS I MAKE HERE ARE MY OPINONS ONLY! I OFFER NOTHING WHATSOEVER AS A STATEMENT OF FACT! The photographs are offered as ARTISTIC EXPRESSION ONLY! They are not representative of anything other than themselves. Most of the places mentioned here have surely changed substantially since they were visited. Check my list of recommended sites at the bottom of this blog!

A Final Series Of Test Pics
In this series, extending over several days, I show the result of using a Nikon D200 as a virtual point-and-shoot, in a programmed mode with settings chosen to favor general, as opposed to specific, conditions of lighting, aperture, exposure, etc. Dynamic focusing and matrix metering and a high maximum ISO and aggressive noise reduction. I like the results, personally.
All of these were taken under cloudy evening skies, and no tripod was used at any time.
No flash, either. More of these examples to follow...

More Nikon D200 Test Shots
I did some picture taking last evening, using the camera in a point and shoot manner, and got very nice results. In programmed mode with matrix metering/focus control and max ISO set to 1600 it works very well as a point and shoot camera. I did telephoto shots in low light conditions with enough breeze to make the camera hard to hold steady and got sharp pics. But I'll be coming to that set of photos in a few days.
The seasonal things were taken inside Holland Gardens, a local nursery with a very high end Christmas operation. Want to spend a couple of thousand dollars on an artificial tree? They've got 'em.
