Nikon WedNEsDAy PiC 2010: #1

<p>Happy New Year to everyone and good luck in 2010! It has been cold here in Wisconsin so far this Winter but my dogs love it. </p><div></div>

<p>Happy New Year everyone...<br>

Hope we are all able to go out and take a lot of wonderful pictures this year like we did in the past 52 weeks!!<br>

My contribution this week is a picture of the Thames that I took at dawn in the last week of December.<br>

<p>Good morning all, and Happy New Year.<br>

My image this week reminds us about the good old days. I wish we still had them. I shot this sign at an antique yard. Everybody remember "ESSO"? Those were the good times.<br>

Taken with Nikon D200 and Nikon 105 f2.8 VR lens. ISO 100 @ f2.8 1/3200 second</p><div></div>

<p>Happy new year to all, and all the best. I hope this thread will be as inspiring in 2010 as it was in 2009. So far, so very good!</p>

<p>A new year's wish from a local artgallery:<br>

<p>Holy Wednesday everyone,</p>

<p>Rest of fired firecrackers on one of main street of Paramaribo. The tradition arrived to Suriname with Chinese immigrants almost 155 years ago. Actually this was a shoot of accident. The Fire Department and Polices were keeping visitors away from firecrackers first time in the history of parade, but here the rest of part in the box fired it self. Thanks to God no body injured also in next two more accidents too. Thanks for stopping by and many cheers to you all.</p>

<p>I wish Happy New Year and take care. Regards,</p>

<p>it was a blustery, bone-chilling morning this past sunday when i went down to catch the gulls at the shopping center. the cameras seemed to handle the cold a lot better than the photographer, while the gulls seemed not to notice at all...</p><div></div>

<p>Forgot the name of this animal - shot it at a zoo through a glass cage.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy New Year.</p>

<p>This shot is from Sunday in Rocky Mountain Nation Park. BW conversion in NX2, I wish I had my polarizer with me!</p><div></div>

<p>Happy New Year everyone - hard to imagine it's been 10 years since Y2K isn't it?</p><div></div>

<p>Happy New Year !!! Thank you for the comments last week.<br>

Really struggled with what to post today. My D300 got a new 85 f/1.8 lens and what fun using and learning this lens. I,however, keep going back to my 60mm micro looking for some small creature to photograph.<br>

Since it has turned cold for the south , nothing compared to Pre Christians cold or rather frigid temperatures, all the bugs are hiding staying warm. I did find this little guy out , but trying to bury himself deep in the flower.</p>

<p >Love the shot. The pilot makes the shot and the spinning prop is the icing on the cake.</p>

<p >This shot is perfection for my eyes. Just love the contrasting colours (Orange v Blue) and the girl in the window is perfect.</p>

<p >Beautiful shot. There is sharp definition and light where it matters.</p>

<p >I am learning to use my 50 mm lens at f/1.4. My dog is my subject for this practice.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi!Happy New Year everybody.<br>

Well,a bright start for the New Year under Matt's lead.</p><div></div>

<p>Lots of really nice images already. My contribution was taken at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing .</p>

<p>Happy Wednesday! I've been reading the Strobist blog this week, so I took a crack at using my SB600 off-camera and against the sun coming in a window at home. The theory I get, but I haven't quite nailed it in practice...I did like the refractions that came through in this image, though<br>

Happy New Year!</p><div></div>

<p>I was quite busy while preparing my post because my wife's very high priority request to photographing one of her favorite character; <a href="http://www.suegrafton.com/">Kinsey Milhone</a>'s famous peanut butter pickle sandwich ;) for their mystery blog.</p>

<p>Dear Matt, thank you very much handling this thread. </p>

<p>I want to send my special thanks to Dan South too for his valuable words to my post last week. </p>

<p>All the best,</p>

<p>Happy Wednesday everyone and happy New Year 2010.<br>

Here is my contribution for today. Picture was taken at Sea World on January 2nd, 2010. It is nice to see how humans and nature can live together in harmony when we respect, protect and love creation. Hope you like it and have a happy shooting in 2010.</p><div></div>

<p>Fog: You can see it, feel it, at times even taste it. Fog keeps you guessing as to what's just around the corner or in this case, what's at the end of the tracks.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Day all! Another great one, huh!</p>
