Nikon Wednesday Pic 2010: #49

<p>Not much time to shoot these days with finals, but here is an image I shot back in April of a the bottom of a brand new Ryanair Boeing 737. Did you know that the Boeing 737 does not have doors over the main landing gear in order to save weight?</p><div></div>

<p>On saturday my son and I spent 2 hours on and around the sea ice down on the fjord. Salt water ice is great fun. As the tide goes out the thick layers of ice rest on underlying rocks. Without the water underneath to support it's weight it then collapses and cracks. It is intriguing to watch. A lot of these ice plates get taken out to sea with the tide, so you want to be sure that your not standing on one of those pieces when it loosens from the rest :-)</p><div></div>

<p>Good morning all - My first contribution for a while, taken at the entrance to the old port at Bastia on a trip there a few weeks back. I'll have a few more to post in coming weeks I'm sure from this trip to the northern tip of Corsica, which I have decided is heaven on earth!</p><div></div>

<p>This is Armação de Búzios, a paradise 50 miles from my home.<br>

Thank you.</p><div></div>

Mikhail, I thought so! I walked around P.G. Monday! The lens makes the ocean look miles away.

<p>Something unusual for me... a bird shot taken with a telezoom. The full image contains the whole bird, what you see below is a big crop.</p><div></div>

<p>That's a beautiful bird portrait Jose. Lots of really nice photos up already! My photo this week was taken early Sunday morning. I spotted a little beetle on this Mexican Hat flower and started to take a photo when I saw some antennae sticking out from underneath. I turned it over and saw a cluster of sleeping *tiny* bees. I was taking natural light shots, so had my tripod, took three photos in different focal planes, and stacked them to increase the apparent DOF. Tech: D90/Sigma 150mm/1.4x teleconverter @ 1/60, f/11, ISO 400.</p>

<p>Great picture, Jeannean. The little monsters look almost cute all cuddled up like that.</p>

<p>Milwaukee got its first snow fall last saturday so I had to go out and do some exploring.</p><div></div>

<p>This is our neighbor's house. When I first saw it, I imagined a crumpled body inside collapsed against the Christmas tree. My instinct was to call the police but decided to try knocking on the door first. The neighbor answered right away and explained that everything was fine and that the display was arranged deliberately to create this effect. It's still a bit puzzling to me.</p>

<p>D700, ISO 800, 50mm f/1.4 AF-D, 1/60 @ f/2.</p><div></div>

<p>Hello all<br />another mascot from the Autoclasica fair a few weeks ago<br />D300 + 18 - 200 VR@ 200 mm - ISO 1250 - 1/400 - f 10</p><div></div>

<p>Great shots, everyone, happy Wednesday. Last weekend's</p><div></div>

<p>Good morn to all. I know many of you are snowed in around the country. So I thought I'd tease you with a shot from a week ago in Fl. This lady and her dog were out early with me enjoying the sunrise. She had so much going on I enjoyed photographing them.
