Good to see you back in action ! Thanks for sharing.

After more than two-and-a-half months, we hiked off trail up to the rock cliffs in the Nature Preserve. It was a wondrous experience to be amongst the ancient trees, amazing rock formations, lichens, cacti, shrubs, and incredible vistas. We wound up taking a more strenuous and exhausting route, being on the lookout for photographic opportunities, and the stillness, solitude, and magnificence of Nature was deeply moving.

Coming back to share one of the photos taken in France with the 55-200 mm lens. We happened to be staying in a hotel room with a view over the rooftops toward Sacre Coeur. (I did not bring a tripod on this trip as we were walking most of the time so I was photographing this basilica from my hotel room, some handheld shots and some with the camera secured to the railing with a gorillapod.)

One of our little local wonders, this spot. Tiny fishing village called Aripeka in Florida. It was an all-day downpour the day before and the storm broke before sunrise, I knew there would be clouds over the Gulf of Mexico just on the other side of the shack so hopped in the car to catch the morning light. This is a jpeg out of camera, with a white balance adjustment to capture the color my eyes saw and a little work on the sky to bring out the clouds.

The usual arguments against these cards are that they can move around inside the adapter and give errors and they are so small that they are easy to lose. They seem roughly comparable in write speed with the popular SanDisk cards. If you want to save money they may be worth a try. Let us know how you get on.
