Nikon Wednesday Pic 2010: #16

<p>D 300 28mm, ISO 200 F3,3</p><div></div>

<p>Hello everyone...<br>

This photo was taken at the Isle of Wight earlier this month. I went for a walk along the beach one morning and saw this man walking his dog at a distance. I had a hunch that they would cross my path, so I waited patiently for this shot.</p><div></div>

<p><img src="../photo/10929654" alt="" />Great images as usual. The one I am submitting today was taken yesterday afternoon where I encountered intriguing weather and light. For a brief moment there was a pocket of sunlight on a small island in the St.Lawrence river here in Quebec yet everything else was ominous rain clouds. This did not last long and I got lucky by getting this image.</p><div></div>

Nice pictures already!<div></div>

<p>Good morning friends. Another wonderful wednesday ahead..., I'm happy. The picture below was taken with D300+300/2,8 at 1/5000, F4, ISO 400, handhelded . Just a few seconds and the bird was gone..., to bad I don't have time to mount on the monopod and 2x TC.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi Guys<br>

My photo today is sunrise at Sandgate, Brisbane</p><div></div>

<p>A mother and daughter going through a closet and finding a card from years ago that had been saved and forgotten. Not a great technical prize, but I was happy to have the moment.</p><div></div>

<p>Tail lights of a car, an abstract rendition. This is my entry for this week's thread. Happy shooting!</p><div></div>

Hey all some very fine work this week. Vibrant!<br>

<p>Yup, they caught me photographing them making smoochie face. It was a lovely moment but my timing was a fraction off. And they laughed and joked with me about it. Maybe I'm just lucky but nobody ever seems to mind me photographing them in public.</p>

<p>D2H, 18-70 DX, 160th f/6 (+0.3 EV to comp for tricky lighting conditions), ISO 800. No noise reduction, resampling and JPEG compression usually makes the D2H noise invisible below ISO 1600.<br>

<p>Hi, <br>

<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=24372">Shun Cheung</a>: Fantastic shot!<br>

<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=323291">Dieter Schaefer</a>: I love this shot - its reminiscent of something the impressionist masters would produce... <br>

<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=2186708">Tony Hadley</a>: Great light - good timing!<br>

<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=4456907">Shane Srogi</a>: Another shot with fantastic light!</p>

<p>Last Saturday I went along to a 12 hour mountainbike race in Naseby, in Central Otago, in New Zealand's south Island. My work put a team of cyclists in, and I went along for moral support and some shooting! This was one of my favourite from the day. <br>

Cheers!<br>

<p>Hello Everybody,<br>

firstly thank you to all, who so kindly commented on my photo last week. All your comments are very much appreciated. <br>

My photo this week is from my friend's wedding I photographed on Saturday. I was very fortunate that nothing went wrong for me that day (except forgetting to lower the ISO setting after coming out of the dark tropical gardens, hence the ridiculous shutter speed; yet again, no comment, I am awaiting the day, when I will change my ISO without thinking about it, but the day hasn't come as yet :-) and I was very lucky we had fantastic weather after few rainy days. This was taken in the pergola outside the reception venue. The sun was just setting and the light was getting very warm and lovely. And I have to praise Nikon for constructing the gear so very well, as within the whole day and after taking 1500 photos, I used up only 1/4 of the battery power. Brilliant!<br>

Have a lovely week.<br>

Jana<br>

<p>Thank you to Jamie Harre, Kent Shafer, Greg Kowalczewski, Richard Karash and Lil for your nice comments last week. <br /><br />I've heard a lot of talk about spring lately, but I haven't seen much of it yet. I was going to post a picture I took on Saturday while backcountry skiing up a local mountain, but due to the fact that I was in cloud, blizzards and strong winds the only picture I managed to get was a white rectangle. Navigating purely by GPS I managed to get myself down again, only falling about 20 times in the zero visibility conditions, and decided that my wednesday picture this week would have to be something else. So here is another landscape taken 2 and a half weeks ago at 70° North, in much nicer conditions, on a hill in the morning sunlight. <br>

D300 and 10-24 @ 13mm, f11, ISO 200, 1/640sec</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday to all.</p>

<p>I took this portrait of my Father whilst out on a photographic walk together. He took his Minolta Vectis and I my F80 and 28-200mm G. Walking along this riverside path I thought that it was a nice place for an informal portrait.</p><div></div>

<p>Remember the volcano? No I don't live in Iceland, but in the town of Rotterdam, The Netherlands. We were following the news on the volcano eruption, when suddenly our weather guy said that the volcanic ashes may have some influence on the sunset.<br /><br />Well I put the D700 on a tripod, set the interval timer and went down for a cup of coffee. From the 200 or so frames it shot, this is the one I like most.<br /><br />For many of you it maybe is just another sunset, but here in Holland, we don't often get these saturated colours in front of our window panes.</p>

<p>This week, again I must add, I a completely startled by the quality of the work posted by you kind people. Some of the, what I think, highlights of this day so far, are from:</p>

</ul>

<p><strong>D700, 85mm AIS, 1/125 sec at F11 </strong></p><div></div>

<p>I always look foreward to every Nikon Wednesday so I decided to participate for once, here it is: </p><div></div>

<p>Continuing the bird theme.....a new arrival on the river which runs through my town. She had 12 ducklings(!), three more like this fellow and the other eight are dark brown. Sadly this morning, one of each colouring were missing.</p>

<p>Tricky conditions for me, fairly low light levels forced me to up the ISO just to get a little more depth of field which is still tiny with this setup.</p>

<p>Adey</p><div></div>

<p>Ever noticed how ducks look like they're smiling....</p><div></div>

<p>Good morning, Nikon Community ! Until the moment I have specially enjoyed Chris Court, Alpo Syvanen, Amish Mankuthel and Louis Meluso's pics, for their originality and technical quality. I hope someone enjoys my pic ! It was taken at Kyoto's Gion District. I was struck by these two "Mayko", and their elaborate and colourful ornaments !<br>

It was taken with my D80, with VR 18-200, at 112mm, with F/5.6 and 1/125s.<img src="Gueishas_DSC_8811.jpg" alt="" /></p><div></div>

<p>Hello everybody, I have been watching this thread every Wednesday with much interest and this Wednesday I have decided to bring my first contribution.<br>

Photo taken with Nikon FE + 50mm f/1.8 + Fujifilm Superia ISO 200</p><div></div>

<p> Hi first time posting an image</p><div></div>

<p>Matt, everyone: Happy Wednesday.,,,<br>

Last Saturday was the day of the Kenduskeag Stream Canoe Race, 16 miles in what is supposed to be rapid water. This year the water was the lowest it has been in years. As I did last year, I positioned myself at the Six Miles Falls - most people made it across (and the most competitive ones port anyway), but this warrior here was a bit delayed..... Kudos to all participants!</p>
