    I did this area in '68 when I was teaching a course called Combat Pix at Lowrey AFB. I used a Hasselblad and 4 X 5 C-12 Graflex with swings and tilts. I used some 120 color, but most was B & W. Your shot is excellent. What lens?

    Steve - I shot this in 2006 on a Nikon D200 with a Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S DX VR II. Not a superfast lens, but great for travel as it only weighs 1.2lbs and is 3.8 inches long. It's getting hard to travel with a lot of great these days. Thanks for the comments.
