Thanks! I'm glad I was able to visit this location before it's gone for good. Glenn

Thank you, Valentin... For the website design, I simply used the templates offered by Zenfolio. Zenfolio makes it easy to customize the design without needing any programming skills. For the...

Thanks Maji :) Glenn

Ron, This particular building is easy to access...front entrance wide open, a few side doors are open as well. It is usually marked "No Trespassing", but the sign was missing this time. I'm...

Thank you Harold Glenn

Thanks Malcolm Glenn

Thanks! Much of the green appeared to be a color cast from the foliage just outside the building. But, there was also some mold as well. Glenn

I captured some pictures at the Manteno State Mental Hospital yesterday. The facility opened in 1929 and closed in 1983. A few buildings still stand and are popular sites with "ghost hunters." At...

All the photos were taken with a tripod...except that I used a monopod for the baseball ones. Glenn

Yes...the bat was aluminum. It never sounds the same as wood. Glenn

Thanks Scott..I think this ended up being a ground out. Glenn

Thanks...the ridiculous part about this was that I was shooting single frame shots with the D800. It only took me three or four tries to get this shot! Obviously, that takes a little luck. Glenn

Here's your 100% crop of the first one: http://www.nagelphotography.com/img/s3/v43/p33553549.jpg The second one I'll leave to your imagination. :) Glenn

Thanks...I always enjoy taking photos at the Brookfield Zoo. I hope that Nikon can adjust the AF issue with a firmware release for the D800. Glenn

Thanks... I haven't noticed an AF issues with the D800. My understanding is that this issue only impacts the far left AF point--and only at certain apertures. So, it's possible that I just...
