My dear Paul.
But consider the price as well...Tamron-Nikon.
For last about twenty years,I work only with Nikon.But today I'll be happy with Panasonic Lumix FZ28 G-9 or FZ50 as well.
Have a great weekend my friend.
Stan~

Thank you Stan. I considered this new Tamron lens and it would be of surprising good quality in the 18-200 range. However I came across the Nikkor AF-S DX 18-200 VR f/3,5-5,6 G IF-ED which also according many tests is an excellent alternative for the single lens traveller like me, covering wide angle until large zoom. I will sell my 1 month old Nikkor 18-105 VR, a good lens as well but missing my favourite higher zoom range I appreciated so much with my Panasonic FZ50,
all the best,
Paul

Hi Stan, many thanks for your visit and encouragement.
Yes indeed, I still discover new options with my new D90 every day. And how fantastic that several steps above 800 ASA do not cause restrictive high noise levels as experienced before.
All the best my friend,
Paul

Very impressive shot, amazing how the water is so calm, so you have A PERFECT reflection at the middle, the tree is great too, adds wildness into the frame, as about the people down there is another great element to fill up so nicely the frame, great shot.

Bonsoir Nicki,
j'espère que tout va bien aussi et que ta mère se porte bien.
Ici en Norvège je découvre de plus en plus de beauté. Je suis aussi pris par mon nouveau travail est aussi je le vois, comme tout autour, comme un grand opportunité avec plein de découverts. Il faut trouver encore mon chemin en ce qui concerne la langue, mais cela ne va pas durer longtemps que je l'apprends aussi.
je t'embrasse,
Paul

Hi Julie, glad to hear from you again. So far I like my new adventure. Although I can read Norwegian pretty well, I do not yet understand the spoken language very well. Fortunately most Norwegians also speak English and German which makes life much easier.
The D90 is a great camera, with many options and great properties, although instead of the standard Nikkor 18-110 VR, I advise to go for the slightly more expensive 18-200 VR instead, in case you prefer one single lens for travel.
Hugs and kiss from me too,
Paul

Hello dear Paul,
I guess I have missed some updates in your life but I am glad to catch up now. Congratulations on the new job, city and new camera. How do you like it so far? I am thinking about getting the D90 in a couple weeks. Let me know how you like it.
I absolutely love this image. It is so beautiful and the range of tones is fantastic.
Big hug and kiss my friend,
Julie.

Hi Michele, I'm happy to catch up with you again. Also many thanks for your detailed comment. Yes indeed I got some more snow last few days, but some rocks never color white. These are real rocks, resisting to everything coming from outside :-)

Hi Mojgan, I'm honored by your constructive and kind comment. Your portfolio shows so many excellent and creative street captures. I appreciate your work very much.
By the way I fly to London tomorrow, stay in Wimbledon and in Kensington, will be back in Stavanger again at Thursday. I hope to get across some special experiences in, and POV's of London as well,
all the best,
Paul

Hi Sunset man, I have also no idea who you are. It doesn't matter so much who I am as it matters what my photo is :-) The over-sharpening is caused by the upload parameter "light" I think that a Nikon D90 produces ultra sharp images at its own, so next time no sharpening filter during upload needed. Thanks for the remark. I test it tonight without this filter and will delete after as soon as I have seen the difference.
Glad that you liked the reflection "somewhat". However it was simply there, could not avoid it, so I got it spontaneously fully integrated in my picture :-) Sometimes I'm so lucky without doing any special effort. best regards, Paul
