Update January 10, 2005
welcome to the photo page of dubea.com. I've recently become the
proud owner of a Nikon D-70 digital camera. It's been a
relearning experience as I was heavily into photography while I was in
college. In those days I was a purist and used an Olympus OM-1 35
mm SLR. It was manual everything and I only had a couple of prime
lenses.
My how things change. The D-70 is auto everything and has a 17-80
mm zoom lens. Auto focus, auto exposure, etc, etc, etc.
Couple this with the added complexity of digital photography and we
have quite the learning experience. Add into the mix the SB-800
TTL flash and 70-300 mm zoom I bought before Christmas and wow,
information overload. I did buy a 50mm f1.8 prime with the zoom
and the flash and it's like going home. Everything becomes
familiar again. Walk before you run dubea. Walk before you
run.
In saying all that these photos are particularly pedestrian.
Nothing outstanding here. There isn't anything here that's
going to astound you. This site is for me to learn. HTML,
CSS, digital photography, etc. So please be kind.

After getting Meghan settled in her room
at Ole Miss (see Oxford trip), we drove to Memphis to see the Masters
of the Medici exhibition at the Phoenix. After the exhibit we walked
around Beale Street a bit. Unfortunately, there isn't much in Memphis
open on Sunday.

This is from a trip I took to Landover,
MD to visit the office of Phoenix International. I was there to witness
a test of the drilling equipment mounted on the back of their ROV, the
Nereus II. Unfortunately, the hydraulic system on the ROV had water in
it, so the test was postponed.

This is from a return trip I took to
Landover, MD to visit the office of Phoenix International. I was there
to witness a test of the drilling equipment mounted on the back of
their ROV, the Nereus II. The tests went wonderfully, and a nice clean
hole was drilled in the limestone in less than an hour.

This is the RM-300, a machine designed
and built by Ocean Dynamics, Inc. to manipulate large cable spools. I

Hi there, this is the inaugural display of my photo
log. It's certainly going to be a work in progress, so stop by often
and frequently to see what is new. CD
