So as not to be continually ridiculed for letting the D3x sit, I got out
today with fellow LUGer Hugh Thompson.  After a pleasant lunch at the Flower
Street Cafe, we visited the old British Cemetery, a place I've been to
several times but Hugh had yet to see it.  It dates back to the First Afghan
Wars and Lord Kitchener's time.  Foreigners of many nationalities are buried
there:

After the cemetery, it was off to one of the many hills overlooking Kabul;
thankfully we had something of a clear day.

I loaned the D700 to Hugh and I'm sure we'll see a few images from him.  The
D3x files are huge and incredibly detailed.  I'm very anxious to get the
camera underwater; macro work with it is going to be stunning.
Interestingly enough, Adobe Bridge does not recognize the file format yet
has no problem with the D700.  I use Capture NX2 as well, so no dramas
there.

Thanks for looking,

Wendy
