Sturgis Motorcycle Rally

ST0029  I am starting to pack ,make lists and plan the route for the upcoming trip to South Dakota for the Black Hills Rally.

We are planning a 2 part trip. Part 1 is going for a 3500 km bike ride from Sturgis to the grand canyon and back, with stops at many places to photograph and just relax. Part 2 of the trip is to set up my photo studio in the black hills to take portraits of people and their bikes. Also to relax and enjoy life in a different environment.

I will be updating the trip as I discover new places.

New Pentax K7

Ok Ok I know I don’t need it! But I do!

I am waiting for it to arrive by UPS this week. I did alot of research and reading and decided I can not afford the Nikon d700 kit (approx $10,000). So now I have a 2 body kit at a reasonable investment. Still missing the full sensor and incredible iso but I do like very much the image quality Pentax delivers. I am not going to sell my K20D but will be selling my Canon HV30 hd video cam because the K7 will do HD video. I will follow up on a review this week of the K7 as I play with it. even a unboxing video.
