Your Bio
I have used Nikon equipment since I rewarded myself with an F2 and 50mm lens to celebrate my university graduation and my first "real" job. It still functions after 35 years.
Currently, my camera bag includes a Nikon D300 and my favorite Nikkor lenses: 24-70mm f2.8, 85mm f1.4, 105mm f2.8 macro and 135mm f2. I also use 20mm f2.8, 180mm f2.8 and a zoom 80-200mm f2.8 AF-S lenses.
You will find me and my gear in the Pacific Northwest exploring the mountains and seashores and the streams and forests that I have called home my entire life.
Or, a more recent passion is shooting at music venues. This is a challenging genre because of the lighting and trying to capture a performer's essence. I am the house photographer at the Mt. Baker Blues Festival and am a contract concert photographer for the Seattle Weekly. Best seat in the house. My images also appear on Ten Years After's websites: http://www.ten-years-after.com/tour2008/seattle08/judytilley.htm and http://www.tenyearsafternow.com/tya/seattle.htm
I add new images almost weekly so the welcome mat is always out for you to visit. Or, if you want a photo of a special place in the Pacific Northwest, please let me know and I will get the the shot.
Smugmug offers those of us with Pro accounts the choice to use a Professional Lab. Bay Photo costs more but they hand correct each image which I believe is essential to a great print.
