For the past couple of weeks I’ve been posting photographs from my recent shoot at Mare Island Naval Shipyard during the early March full moon. Today’s photo is the last from that series that I’ll post – except for one photograph taken just before nightfall that is still in the queue. I’m sure that there will be more night photography here before long, but I’ll be posting other subjects again soon. (For more SF Bay Area night photography, visit The Nocturnes web site and see my Night page.)

… I have a suggestion for Canon in re the “big” 20D/30D/40D question. (You know, the one causing untold neverending shuddupshuddupSHUDDUP existential anguish all over every Canon forum on the ‘net….)

The suggestion: drop it.

That’s right. Drop it altogether. Why does Canon need a camera in between the XTi (400D) and the 5D, anyway? Answer: maybe it doesn’t.
