After a few hours of frantic cleaning, Chez Hobbit is open for business!
Though we’ve been planning Van’s visit to the Hobbit Hill for weeks, life has intervened in the form of an oral presentation D. has been “invited” to do on Tuesday, and a conversation T. needs to have with her editor on Monday. Extra Choral Society rehearsals have been called for Thursday night. However, our guest is very game to be dragged along to wherever. In return, we hope to drag him to all the museums, Stirling Castle, to The Ubiquitous Chip restaurant, to The People’s Palace and Winter Gardens, and to various Scots eateries for a traditional Scots “fry-up,” haggis, high tea, and more… Yes, our guest is the adventurous sort.
Confidential to Mr. Blinkey: We’ve got your Dad… we may not give him back!

Hi to the moose!
Congratulations on the new camers. Wonderful photos!
Have you a special lens?
Camera geek alert:
I’m shooting with three lenses. 1) 50mm Canon f1.4, 2) 28-200mm Sigma aspherical f3.4-4.5, 3) Tamron 75-300mm f3.4-4.6. The f numbers are remembered (probably poorly, in the case of the zooms), but give an approximate idea of what’s going on. Because the lenses are ranged for film cameras, their effective range is x1.6 – so the 50mm becomes essentially an 80mm lens.
For the 28-200, I’ve a 3x diopter filter/lens. I also have circular polarizers for them, as well as a warming filters. I haven’t been using those recently, though, because it just takes a little bit more to set up those shots, and we’ve been on the move.
Hey, look at YOU guys! I want to stay at the T&D B&B.
