The trip was recorded with a variety of cameras. My trusty Fuji S2 Digital provided the bulk of the photos you see here. Digital gives you a fast way to upload photos and the quality isn't bad. 

Film photos were done with my good old Nikon N90S, a used Nikon N65 that I purchased from KEH, and Kodak Supra 400 print film and Fuji Provia 100S Slide film. 

I borrowed a Widelux F6 Wide Angle Camera from my wife's friend Janet's father, Walter. He is a most interesting and generous fellow as well as a very good photographer who has some very interesting equipment. All the wide angle shots are done on Fuji slide film because it is impossible to print the image size the camera takes. (It is about two full 35mm frames wide.) The transparencies will be scanned and posted when we get back.

My lens selection is as follows:

18-35mm Nikon 
24-36mm Nikon 
75-300mm Nikon  (old style)
80-400mm Nikon VR
24mm Nikon f2.8
105mm Nikon  Micro
1.4x Tamron Tele-converter

I brought an EWA Marine housing so that I could use my S2 in water as well as a Minolta Dual Weathermatic Underwater Camera.

For fill flash, I brought my Nikon SB80DX and my Nikon  SB-28. 

My tripod is a very light Velbon that I purchased in Omaha when I bought the 80-400 VR as well.

Only polarizer filters have been used to augment the innocent.
