| Introduction | I'm here for Naveen's "SMORGASBORD OF PHOTOS" blog, so I'll just talk about photography. My main interest is landscape and travel photography. For years I used only waterproof point-and-shoot cameras, both film and digital, since I could take them along on kayak trips. A couple of years ago I got a Nikon D80, and have been using DSLRs ever since. I recently got a D90. My favorite lens is my Nikkor 16-85mm VR; I also like superwide zooms: I had a Sigma 10-20mm, and recently replaced it with a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8.
I took a P&S camera on my last two scuba trips and got good results, considering how inexpensive the equipment is these days. I used a Canon A620 in a Canon underwater case, with no external flash. I've done some panorama stitching, using Autopano Pro and Hugin OS-X. I do a lot of Photoshop work to make my images look better before printing or uploading.
