Nikon Wednesday Pic 2010: #49

<p>Tiffany-Sweet butterfly<br>

Kris-Nice web you've woven<br>

Jeannean- Nice bee shot. Took some patience<br>

I took this shot while walking in a local park. I believe they are chestnuts. Correct me if I am wrong, which is usually often.</p><div></div>

<p>Lovely Pics again from everyone! Didn't shoot much this week, this one is from Saturday, a friend of mine smoking in a bar.</p>

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

<p>As usual some really great shots. I was on vacation going for an early morning jog and saw all these hot air balloons taking off, so I cut my run short and grabbed the camera.</p><div></div>

<p>D-300 85mm 1.4D . with a SB-800, Asa 200 2.0</p><div></div>

<p>Great photos once again. My favorites are Paul Jim's owl, Keith B's portrait and Jeannean B's bees - great technique.<br>

In the UK the weather has been dominating the news. I thought this shadow of a tree looked interesting falling on a pristine blanket of fresh snow.</p>

<p>From earlier in the year, a river Thames seagull on the prowl.<br>

<p>Anxious and happy survivors from a fire at an old mill in our town.</p><div></div>

<p>Great pics, too many to pick a favorite. My pic is from my daughter's first indoor track meet at The U.S. Naval Academy. The race is the 60m Hurdles, my daughter is in the center and won this heat.</p><div></div>

<p>Here's a picture I took last friday in Trafalgar Square while the cold wave was hitting London. The equiment used was a D60 w/ the 35mm f/1.8 AF-S DX. I did use flash, although the white balance was chosen to yield a cold atmosphere. It alwo matched well with the blue lights being used at that moment. The original is a tad soft, since the low light meant my camera had a difficult time to accurately autofocus.</p><div></div>

<p>One of the few times Zoie will remain stationary long enough for a picture. We think she has some Border Collie, at least in her behavior.</p><div></div>

<p>Early Winter at Arlington National Cemetery. Nikon D3 24-70 at 48mm ISO 800 f3.5 1/250 sec. and a warm windbreaker for me.<br>

Thanks for the kind comments last week Nikonistas<br>

<p>Dear Nikonians,<br>

This Wednesday I was very busy, taking photos of Miguel Bombarda Psychiatric Hospital, built in Lisbon in 1896, that is being closed. Here is a picture of the high security section. <br>

Have a good photo week ! </p><div></div>

<p>Great shots. My contribution is a picture of our cat Jasmine. She's extremely finicky but affectionate and always willing to pose for the camera.</p><div></div>

<p>Kent, the little critters are actually pretty cute at this size. They were about a 1/4" long. Smallest bees I've seen. I agree your neighbor's display is a bit bizarre...interesting. Thank you to those who commented on my photo. I enjoyed seeing all of yours! :)</p>

<p>Happy Wednesday Everyone!!<br>

<p>Puffa Fish on the pier, people were catching lots of them, this one filled himself up with water to make it difficult for his capture - :(</p>

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

<p>David Dvir, that is a nice fencing image. Was it captured with a camera and lens after they had fallen 23 feet? (See <a href="../casual-conversations-forum/00XogB">http://www.photo.net/casual-conversations-forum/00XogB</a>)</p>

<p>I wonder what camera, lens, and lighting you used. Was there just one flash from behind the athlete?</p>
