I'm being slowly infected, as if I had an unnoticed run in with a venomous plant weeks ago and it's taking me calmly.. growing over my skin at 12 FPS while the sun shines brightly and mad Hungarians cackle in the background like some kind of modern MTV high-tech Mad Max nightmare.
I bake in my tiny birds nest, my eggs cook and my skin feels heavy and thick like leather. My woman is tired from being on an endless mission. I am tired from not.
I pound the keyboard, pound the pavement, calluses growing on my fingertips and my soles at an equal rate. I'm pounding the guard who stands at the door of the Law, but he hold his ground; resilient, resolute. The door remains half-open, teasing, tempting, beckoning. I remain on the other side.

Your eyes are capable of seeing detail in a much broader range of brightnessess all at the same time, than either film or digital sensors are cabable of. You can look at a sunshiny meadow and simutaneously see detail in the puffy white clouds as well as the bark in the shadows of trees. Film and digital sensors can't do that. But now what you can do, is take an exposure that captures the detail in the clouds, and another that captures the detail in the the shadows of the trees, and combine the two(usually three or more) images digitally into a single image file that has detail in all highlight and shadow areas. What you then have, though, is an image file that has a broader range of brightnesses than can be shown on a computer screen or printed. So what you see in my blog are three "tone mapped" images made from the same HDR image file. tone mapping means that you take the hdr image and compress it digitally down to the limited range of brightnesses that can be shown on a computer monitor or printed.
You don't need as bigtime a camera as that nikon you want, but you do need a camera that has manual exposure settings, and pretty heavy tripod to keep the camera still for three exposures.
