B News: Maine in Fall, A Photographer’s Treasure
T News: The D7100 – In Depth User Report
There is a slice of heaven in the fall and it’s called the Northeast! When I mention the East and Fall, your mind goes to bright reds and oranges, hillsides of it. And while that is most definitely park of the heaven, there is a whole lot more. It’s with great pleasure in this issue of the BTJ, I’ll cover those little hidden locales we’ve come to love as well as the more popular providing you with strategies from timing to gear.
Also in this issue are my first experiences with the D7100! You won’t want to miss it!

Krave Blew me Away!
I don’t think I’ve ever done a “food” post but this is worth a first. Just did a shoot for Krave Jerky and part of the shoot entailed, eating the product. I’ve had aaaaa loooot of jerky in my day but none, zero like Krave! The flavor, tenderness and the total lack of any after taste or incredible desire for water because of salt sold Sharon and I on this product. A Gluton free product, great for on the go protein, I can’t recommend this enough to the photographer on the go! You can buy it many places which includes Amazon.
The 80-400 & the Hummelbird
I’ve had the 80-400AFS for just over a week now and have about 4000 images captured by it. I am impressed so much so, I’ve added it to my camera bag. Last week I shot Lesser Sandhill Cranes on the Platte River with it proving to myself it works great with wildlife. This weekend shooting in AZ, got to use it was aircraft and it performed beautifully! I mean, I really, really like it!

What you see here is a Hummelbird shot with D4 connected to the 80-400VR3. The Hummelbird is a homemade airplane, a one of kind powered by a VW engine with a handcarved prop. There is no way I could ever fit in it but I watched it fly around the field a lot and it really gets going. This particular shot is literally the first aircraft I shot with the 80-400AFS and as you can see, it’s sharp baby! Why did I shoot it backlit? I just love the pilot and his shadow in the canopy. I just wish I had seen it sooner to get the Hummelbird on approach rather than it leaving the field.
