Road Trip...
It's that time again... every couple of years I head for Santa Fe, New Mexico (USA) to visit friends. This time I will also spend a couple of days in Denver with family. Here are two photos to set the mood... and a 2018 gear shot. This year I am traveling very light. The Nikon F3P with a AI'ed 2.8cm f/3.5 & AI-S 50mm f/1.2, 11 rolls of film (Kodak Gold 200 & Fuji Neopan 100 & 400), PL filter, ND filter for ISO 400 film, spare protect filter, spare diopter, spare lens cap (I always loose something), my lens cleaning kit, and the Fuji X100T (not shown) with charger & spares (battery & SD card).
The High Road to Taos June 2015
View from the deck, normally with a glass of red wine
Oct 2018 gear - traveling light
No computer, no internet, no email for ten days... no laptop - no access to the Photo Forum, please excuse my absence... the plan is to be back in Tokyo in time for Halloween...

Thanks Cpt...
Halloween in Shibuya, Tokyo in and around the zebra crossing is an experience... the costumes are always fantastic. Most likely the celebrations start over the preceding weekend. Casey
One of my absolute fave spots on Earth
Have a great trip Casey. Dig in all the great Mexican dishes at Cafe Pasqual. Cheers, Jeff
Jeff... thanks for the recommendation
I usually end up at Harry's Roadhouse (Old Las Vegas Highway in Santa Fe) at least once or twice when ever I visit, great wine selection as well... highly recommended. Casey
Hello Casey
I can see you chose one of Nikon’s best! The F3. What are your lenses you brought along? Is that a 50mm f/1.2? Enjoy your trip! René
Thanks for the gear comment René ...
The camera is a Nikon F3P which is one of my fav traveling cameras. The "P" version has a few 'improvements' over my backup F3HP which make a big difference to the shooting experience. The lenses in the photo are an AI'ed Nikkor-H 2.8cm f/3.5 and an AI-S ...
Thank you DruidPadj...
the sky in the high desert of New Mexico is something else... lovely sunsets and the wonderful clouds - nothing like a storm in the distance. I can understand why Georgia O'Keeffe loved the area north of Santa Fe. Casey
Haven....
on Earth . Happy travels and even happier photo-adventures. I am eagerly awaiting your return! Cheers, Filip
Thanks Filip...
Got home late last night after a 12 hour flight from Denver. Super tired and trying to catch-up. Good to be home. Casey
