I had the pleasure of meeting Brad Petersen while on a business trip to L.A. Whatta' great guy! We cruised down from Laguna Beach to San Diego taking photos of everything in our path. The results are posted in our repsective portfolios...

Brad's Photos

Take a peek. I'll be adding more as I get time.

I think he's compensating for something. Maybe the camera. ;-)

Most of that arrangement is a 3X teleconverter that Olympus makes for the E10.

It's a 3X converter.

Here's a shot of the setup without the offest bracket (looks like a handle) and battery grip:

420mm equiv F2.8 - not too shabby. Many/most of the shots in my GTG folder were shot with that. Optics are actually quite good for what it is.

Oh sure - see if I take you for a ride on the sidewalk again!

And thanks again for the heads-up as I was gawking at Elvis in Coronado instead of watching the road - was a close one.

Well it certainly isn't me! I'm looking at a 4.92 score in Pain. How appropriate. ;-)

So....this would be more characteristic of your feelings about the recent challenge?

(By the way, weirdest shot of a pelican I've ever seen! I never knew/thought they could/would do that...)

Oh that is so wrong!
And my snapshot is sitting at 5.9857 - I think the Universe is out of alignment or something.
