Mug shot


GRAY SQUIRREL, EVANSTON, ILLINOIS, FEBRUARY 13, 2010

Pentax *ist DS
SMC Pentax-F* 300mm f4.5 ED (IF) with Kenko 1.5x teleconverter (450mm total)
1/180 sec. f8
ISO 400

This latest squirrel shot is a two-pronged experiment. First, I took the photo with a new teleconverter that multiplies the focal length of a lens by 1.5 times. Second, I processed the image with the free photo software Paint.NET on a new Toshiba netbook I'll be taking on the road. The experiment seems to have been successful.
