Christopher and I had a little break trip earlier this week. We called at one of my ancestral homes where I believe my grandmother may have been born, she certainly lived there until she married my grandfather in 1911. Ham House, now a National Trust property, on the banks of the Thames in Richmond. I have never been before so it was something of an adventure for me. This was passing as we arrived... D3, 24-120mm f4; 92mm, 1/1250sec @ f4, ISO400 This is the imposing statue guarding the front of the house. D3 again. Once inside the D3 really came into it's own, flash not allowed. All hand held. The entrance hallway: D3, 24-120mm f4; 24mm, 1/40sec @ f5, ISO800 A real challenge, the small, dark Chapel lit only by very dim candle lights, it was hard to see inside it was so dim. I was delighted to get this photo the reject was almost as good. It suffers slightly with movement but at 1/3 sec I was still happy. D3, 24-120mm f4; 24mm, 1/3sec @ f5, ISO3200 Another challenge was the bedroom, not quite as dark as the Chapel but still pretty dim. Shutter still at 1/3sec I managed to keep this one steady and only took one shot the VR must have been doing it's thing. D3, 24-120mm f4; 24mm, 1/3sec @ f5, ISO1600 We called on Eric after leaving Ham. Unbeknown to me he had already eMailed me earlier. We had further adventures which I will recall later. My apologies for the large images but I feel smaller images fail to convey the quality of the D3 images. Do we all get home cinemas for when the D850's come on line in order to fully enjoy the 45mp images?
