It was thursday night a 3 am in the morning and I just got of work. So I decided to make a small test of the camera in the dark. To see how it performs with long time exposures. 5 Minutes later a police officer stopped next to me and asked me what I'm doing. Taking photograph? I thought this was obvious, because my tripod is not really small and has a cam on top of it. So I said yes I making pictures, no I'm not stalking my neighbours, yes I will be quit and so one. By the way the pictures are shot in front of my house. Posted by Picasa

today I got my zoom lens for my camera and it is very nice to have a range from 70 mm - 300 mm. I know that you cant expect wonders from a cheap 200$ lens, but the couple of test pictures i took are ok so far. The really nice thing is that on my D50 the lens is similar to a 105 - 450 mm objectiv. So you get a really long range.

The main problem right now is just it don't fit into my camera bag attached to the cam, so I have to get a camera bag too. I'm thinking about something like this or this.
