Heat, Humidity and crappy Air Quality has kept me inside mostly for the last couple of weeks. I've been harassing the cats when I have been photographing but most of my time has been taken up with re-arranging my computer setup and populating a new Synology NAS (Network Attached Storage). In the process I've arranged much faster access to my Nikon image archive going back to 2005. As I've loaded up each successive year since then I've come across lots of forgotten images. Here's a few of them with a bit of a quiz for your viewing pleasure. They're all cropped to 1600-1200 pixels as always.
Can you guess the Nikon Camera and the year. A little clue, there's one for every Nikon DSLR and Mirrorless I've owned except the little used Z6ii which I can't find. Answers at the end. I think that will surprise at least one of my two avid readers.
