I have only just switched to a Nikon D90 from a SonyR1. The high ISO performance is stunning and was one of the main reasons I changed. As to software I use an ancient copy of Photoshop which is well overdue for replacement, or Picasa 3 from Google, which has some useful image editing possibilities and is free. Hope this helps.<BR/><BR/>And Hiya Micky, thanks for stopping by and commenting - its really great to say hello! I am delighted that you are blogging again and will add you to my blogroll. I agree entirely with what you say. Being creative is like oxygen for me; if its squeezed out by the diary I start to suffocate spiritually.visual theologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184961109315471466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429515118424269823.post-58591787100283866562009-01-09T10:32:00.000+00:002009-01-09T10:32:00.000+00:00Another great post!

And either when neglected (always because there is something 'more important or pressing' to do) leaves life dull and those important things become draining rather than life giving. If I could just find the magic formula that would cure me of my uncreative busy-ness!Mickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048072951653184794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429515118424269823.post-86935448088312389092009-01-09T09:39:00.000+00:002009-01-09T09:39:00.000+00:00Thanks, Dave.

It took a Myers Briggs course in my last District to make me attentive to latent creative gifts, and led to me taking a creative writing course in my last sabbatical. In my imminent next sabbatical, I'm going to take a photography course - I've become quite rusty. I enjoy the photos on your site. Which Nikon and what software do you use?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
