Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8
A sample shot of the sky from my backyard – I don’t have a good view for such a wide angle but I like the effect. Couldn’t wait for this weekend to try it out somewhere in the open so this will have to do for now. :)
It’s the first fisheye lens designed for DX format. It covers an entire 180 degrees and makes a great lens for landscape, wedding and architecture shots (at least that’s what I’m going to use it for).
I got mine here.
30 Car Pileup on Hwy 37
Heading to work this morning in heavy fog and wound up in some pretty gnarly traffic, turns out eleven wrecks in a row had just occured, and I counted over 25 vehicles with damage. Including two vehicles in the creek beside the highway, and one motorcyclist had been injured. Crazyness.
Photos below – one was even published in the local paper.

Five Alarm Fire @ Mare Island
The old [abandoned] storage warehouse on Mare Island caught fire this morning which quickly escalated to a five alarm blaze within an hour.
These images were taken about three hours after the initial report, shortly after fire crews reported that the fire was under control.
