Saturdays Photo. In between the rain drops, Deinna, David her son, his friend Donald and myself managed to get this shoot done. It is to be a Christmas gift for Donald's dad. So don't tell him! It was taken at Simpson's Nursery here in Jamul. If you are looking for plants, this is the place to come! Also, if you are looking for something to do on a Sunday afternoon, the owners of the nursery have assembled a wonderful antique car collection of restored vehicles inside a barn right there on the property. Outside, you will find an assortment of small camping trailers. There are many other unrestored vehicles scattered among the nursery plants, and tons of other automotive memorabilia.

Nikon D700 Birthday Cake
By Charlie Sorrel

D700cake

Lucky Maria F. Not only did her generous husband buy her a Nikon D700 for her birthday, he bought her this rather excellent and delicious-looking D700 cake from Pennsylvania-based cake maker Granny Schmidt's.

Of course, anyone geeky enough to get a camera cake for their birthday is geeky enough to do a proper photoshoot of that same cake. there's a splendid recursiveness to the whole thing, too: The sponge D700 was shot with the real D700, using a Nikkor 50mm ƒ1.8 lens and an off-camera SB800 flash triggered by the D700's built-in strobe.


Here's the cake
