Default New camera, new pics

My friend just picked up his new Nikon, and wanted to take some shots of Sneaks at the course last week. I threw him the keys, and told him to have at it. We were on #5 teebox, about 600 yards away, when I heard him start the car and pull it up the lot. I don't get to hear my vette from outside the car. I was all !!! No mistaking those Stingers.










Hmmmm, what's this?

Those smoked tails from Autobuffs really set off that big 'ol butt huh?

How did you know it was a D700? That's spooky!
He said something about the lens costing more than the camera, and I went !
Thanks for the nice words Bill.

It is a photography thing..lol
All image info is embedded in the photo, One just has to know how to read it, As far as the lens, If it cost more than the D700 it must be one heck of a lens...lol
I can tell you that a few of the pictures were shot at 50mm..

Don't quote me on that. He started talking about his camera and I went into la-la land soon as he said the bodies are $xxxx, and lenses are $xxxxx.
