Nikon WedNEsDAy PiC #36

<p>I am really happy to look at all of these great photos today. I missed posting last week due to illiness.<br>

I tried for the first time to capture a night scene here in the country. I got what I wanted but not necesssarily what others may want to look at. <br>

This is my driveway coming into my house. It has one of those sodium lights that the electric company supplies.<br>

<p>Spotted a Nyala bull. Hoped it would cross the road so that I could get a clear shot.<br>

It did!</p><div></div>

<p>Wednesday again!<br>

I brought my camera with me for a twilight golf round. I was taking a chance that I would be soaked as there was a heavy rain forecast. Ended up taking this picture when the Sun came out of nowhere behind me for about 30 seconds. Pickture was taken with a D700, 24-70mm f2.8 lens, 1/50s, f9, ISO200. Hope you like it.<br>

<p>Hello All,<br>

Went to Wild Adventures in Valdosta GA over the weekend. got this in the small atrium they've got there. I see a lot of great shots today. Taken with a D300, 18-200mm VR, @ 62mm f4.8 ISO250.</p><div></div>

<p>When on a photowalk last weekend with the local Photo club. Saw this fountain with the wind wiping the water a round, looked like the water was dancing.</p>

<p>Last car show photo, I promise. The light was tinted by wild fires 50 miles away giving everything a golden glow, and also raining down fine white ash. Nikon D300 with 18-200mm Nikkor zoom. </p><div></div>

Thank you all for your comments to my photo with sunset and fishing men.<br>

Thank you also for all great photos that you share here, on weekly Nikon WedNEsDAy.<br>

Here, in Romania, is Wednesday so here I am again. This photo was taken in August, close to Rodnei mountains and near to Borsa city, at 1400m. Maria, a great woman at her age, almost 80-90 years old, using the traditional way of making wool (with spindle, manual spinning).<br>

Have a great day and a lovely weekend. <br>

Best regards,<br>

Mirciu</p><div></div>

<p>Happy WedNEsDAy!</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning WedNEsDAy lovers!</p>

<p>Great photo day indeed!</p>

<p>Pedro Cardoso - that is so detailed photo and nice sleep photo! I wish I could sleep like that. I am glad you did it in BW btw.</p>

<p>My contribution today is from July '09. I took this photo using my wife's D40. I saw some term that I haven't paid attention to before - 'Exposure Bias Value = 0/6'. If you can help me translate this, I would greatly appreciate it.</p>

<p>D40 [with Nikon DX 18-55mm f/5.6]-------photo taken at f/18 50mm ISO400 @ ExposureBias value of 0/6</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday everyone! Missed last week because i was on vacation with the family, and vowed not to go near a computer. This weeks image keeps in line with Sanfords car show entry. Shot at a show/hillclimb event at the Nasau County Museum of Art this past weekend, a flathead Ford rat rod is reflected in the rear flank of a beautiful Porsche GT2. D40X, <a href="mailto:18-55@40mm-f11">18-55@40mm-f11</a>, 1/20sec hand held -0.3 ev, is0 200, SB-600, rear curtain slow-to fill in some shadow.</p><div></div>

<p>Went on a touristy walk with my mother through Boston this weekend as she helped me move into my new apartment. Found this wall of dog-tags symbolizing all those who have died in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts.</p>

<p >Nikon D700, 24-70mm f/4, 1/40 sec</p><div></div>

<p>I always enjoy looking for candid photos and pix of performers in these threads. Matt's made me laugh - a busker with an expensive guitar and a bunch of stomp boxes! Gonna be hard to persuade passersby to drop money in the tip jar when he's apparently doing pretty well.</p>

<p>Good work, and so may already. Gotta run, will spend more time later :)</p>

<p>I thought about posting another pretty shot this week, but then I'd rather give you story. This photo was taken with a lens that belonged to my late father in law, who died many years ago. My mother in law found it a few years back and remembered I shot Nikon. I rarely use it. Who knows why he bought it? It's the Nikkor 2000mm f11 reflex lens. It weights 43 lbs and the only tripod I can put it on is an old wooden Zone VI, with a Ries 250-2 head, There is still a lto of shake, meaning that I needed to shoot at ISO 3200 for a 1/250 exposure time. This tree is back lit by the moon. By mistake initrially I left the yellow filter in place....</p><div></div>

<p>Once again I almost ran out of time, (gotta get to work ) looking at all the fantastic pictures, everyone is a source of inspiration. I took a picture of my cat Sidney, looking at the picture seemed rather plain, then I had thought of a comment I had heard "look for the picture in the picture" could not resist that little pink nose. </p><div></div>

<p>Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, California. D700, 24-70/2.8 at 24mm, 1/100s, f/11, ISO 200, matrix metered, circular polarizer.</p><div></div>

<p >Mine is a little different for me having been significantly reworked in PS. This is a little place near my home where a friend has spent considerable time and money building a period correct service station to compliment his millions in restored antique automobiles. It is a wonderful place to hang out.</p>

I didn't post last week because I was in Norway on business, but I've managed to take several photos of this incredibly beautiful country -- even despite the nearly non-stop rain. Here is one, I will post more on my PN site.</p><div></div>
