(SOLD) a classic 55 in very nice condition. The glass is very clean. While I have had this lens for a while, it was seldom used. The focus is firm, but turns without any trouble. The aperture ring is snappy. Aperture blades are clean.
Lens comes with Original front and rear Nikon caps.
$200
I accept Paypal (F&F), Venmo, or a cheque. (Ill wait til it clears to ship)

(sold) Nikon D810 body in very nice condition. Ive had the camera a couple of months and added about 2k pics to the count. Things are just getting a little tighter for us, so I am selling to make a few bucks to keep up. My gain is your loss, as they say.....or something like that.
The shutter count WAS 8089, but while I was making photos, I inadvertently hit the shutter, now the count is 8090.
I acquired this after I sold my D750, and I like the 810 so much more. The camera functions beautifully and I have kept it very well. If you have any questions, or would like any additional photos, let me know. I have a few crop sensor DSLR’s for any of the Nikkor lenses that don't sell.
The camera will come with a 32gb Transcend CF card.
Asking price is $800

This morning while surfing the net with coffee, I stumbled upon ‘rickhemi.com’, and spent quite a while looking at his 800/5.6 photos, which inspired me to get out my 300/2.8 and go find a picture.

may I post a couple of boken shots that I recently took in your post?
Sure thing! I would enjoy seeing bokeh from your perspective.

I brought along my Oly EM-1 with the Kuribayashi Orrikor 50/2 to shoot a picture for a friend in an email. Afterwards, I was contemplating the look of the background, and decided to just shoot a few out OOF shots across the highway of the bokeh. I do enjoy this lens.

We came home late from a friends house last night, and when we got home, I happened to notice the vast amount of stars in the sky. I havent done any night shots all season, but all of a sudden, it seemed the perfect time to do so. I took my 810, and brought along the Nikkor 18/4, and the AFS 14-24/2.8. I chose a destination close by, the golf course, and started with the 18mm. After a couple of false starts with the pictures, I switched over to the 14-24, and that made a much brighter difference. After a few shots, I ended up downtown, at the local roadhouse at closing.
Shots are;
18mm flare
14mm at the golf course
14mm at the local bar,
roadhouse at closing, 14mm

our local brewery has taken to taking Wednesdays off now, often without notifying us, the public, or waiting til about an hour before opening...so, we took to doing our day drinking at home with our cribbage board. The dogs hover around the yard, sometimes dying in the Sun, and coming back to life when food appears. Shot with the Nikkor 105/2.5 Sonnar on my Oly.

Do neighbors actually have a bearing on the amount of scorpions one lives with?
Just asking as i know next to nothing about scorpions.

...usually what I say when I catch one in a photo. Funny the things that we catch when composing that our eyes never see.

...was cleaning around the house ans killed 3 spiders. The summer heat ended a little over a week ago, and while it still has been nice, the past 2 days have been cool and rainy. That is likely the reason for spidies getting into the house....
....but to my surprise, i found something that i never thought i would see here!

We went out for dinner on a whim with a friend. the place we chose was about a 35 mile drive. I was sitting in the back seat to make use of any picture taking along the way. At the restaurant, I took in the Oly with the Helios 85 attached. Had fun snapping these pics.
