Lunch With Chase

After spending some time at Katy Mills Mall, we stopped by 59 Diner on I-10 for some lunch. Nothing big, just another nice weekend with my girl and boy 
Nikon BF-1B

In preparation for some new announcement by Nikon showcasing a new EVIL camera, I bought a new body cap, the Nikon BF-1B from B&H. These pics are a comparison with the current cap. Hopefully this will keep me from being confused with a potential new format.
The first thing I notice is the prominent “F mount” moniker on the front of the cap. This is what is causing the rumor of a possible new mount. It is noticeably thicker as you can see from the profile picture.
While I do not have a picture of the mating, coupling the BF-1B Body Cap with the LF-1 Rear Lens Cap seems to fit snugly, while the BF-1A does not, it comes loose. I am awaiting delivery of the LF-4 to see what the new Rear Lens Cap will do.
Donovan Park
After dinner, a stop at Donovan Park in the Heights was in order. Chase got to play for a bit, and Courtney got bitten by some ants.
Onion Creek
Today we went to have dinner at Onion Creek off White Oak. The food was awesome, and the company was even better. I have been shooting daily with my new 24mm f/1.4G and it never fails to amaze me.
Starry Night
Tonight I took a drive to Chappell Hill to take some pictures of the stars. It was the first real low light test of my Nikon 24mm f/1.4G lens. The pictures were taken about 10:00pm, so it could have been darker, but the lens was flawless. I will be trying the same thing again a little further out next month.
