I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.

  1. Comparing with the "Doe and Fawn" shot the background is really busier than with the other lens.
    But with this equipment (light and versatile) is it possible to get the rabbit so big 🙂

  2. +Dieter Fröhling This was before the 70-300 mm lens for the Nikon 1 system was available. Based on the sensor size on the Nikon 1, a 300 mm lens has a field of view equivaltent to 810 mm on a full frame 35 mm sensor. You are right, you could never hand hold a 810 mm lens on a full frame 35 mm body…
