Friday, April 11, 2008 – On the Water

April in Paris – go to the pond at the Tuileries, or the big round pond in the Luxembourg gardens, and watch the kids launch the little toy sailboats.  It's cool.  April in Los Angeles – go to Naples Island, Alamitos Bay, Long Beach.  We do things right – fancy radio-controlled scale-model sailboats. We are not the French.

The lenses used are (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto, or (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED.
