SUNSPHERE, with reflections.

These are nice pics, but they were taken with the D50 and when blown up to “actual pixels” size there’s a noticeable difference in sharpness and color as compared with the D300.

SOME MORE PICTURES, taken this afternoon when I managed to steal an hour or so at the World’s Fair Park.
