Nikon Nikkor 200-500
A wonderful lens. If you have seen my concert photography it was likely done with this lens.
Somehow over the years I acquired two of these. So I need to let go of one.
Let's go shoot! We will see what this thing can do.
$850

Nikon Nikkor 80-400, for sale
Nikon Nikkor 80-400 for sale
AF-VR 80-400mm 1:4.5-5.6D
I wore the back rubber skids off that turn the telephoto "in and out". They can be purchased and replaced.
$300
Nikon D800 E, for Sale
Predecessor to the D850.
The D800E takes sharper pictures than its sister camera, the D800, because of a change in the internal filters. (see more below).
It takes good pictures. I tried it today. Let's go shoot and you can see what you think.
Camera only with strap
$300
The D800E uses a modified optical low-pass filter (OLPF) that cancels the filter's normal anti-aliasing effect. This allows the sensor to capture finer detail and can produce slightly sharper images than the standard D800 under suitable conditions.

pam sends me to the grocery store and strange things happen
Pam has spotted a trend. I guess it is a trend, or maybe it is (or they are) an usual occurrence. Or maybe it is (or they are) a series of unusual occurrences.
Or maybe it doesn't matter.
When she sends me to the store; on those particular days they are giving away free stuff. On the days she goes by herself to the store there is no free stuff.
I had not noticed.
Now that is pointed out to me, I see it. But really beforehand (or maybe afterhand) I had not noticed.
She things it is odd, but I think it is just fine and everything is a-okay. Okie dokie artichokie.
When she needs bread or milk, or more recently coffee... on those days they are giving away free things. Last time she sent me they had a special that with the purchase of any sized coffee you received two bags of chocolate covered donuts. I ate some on the way home. However they tasted even better with coffee, so whomever devised this "give away" knew what they were doing.

This is of course a promotion to inspire customer loyalty.
Sometimes when I go to the store for bread they are giving away my favorite ice cream… Vanilla Bean, if, you buy a loaf of bread, which just so happens what I was there to buy in the first place. And, coincidentally, it often happens at exactly the same time we are out of vanilla bean ice cream at home.
It's a miracle.
Sometimes they “switch it up” and offer a free gallon of ice cream with the purchase of another dairy product. And luckily, a few times when I’ve been sent to buy milk that promotion is running.
But they never seem to be running those specials when Pam and I go or when Pam goes by herself.
So that is very strange.
Like supernatural.
Otherworldly.
An oddity.
Through the looking glass (no, I have no idea what that means).
