Nikon Wednesday Pic 2011: #9

<p>Have been scanning some older pics with Coolscan 9000.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy wednesday to everyone!<br>

Lovely photos again. Some of my favs are taken by <a href="../photodb/user?user_id=5576216">Jana Hughes</a>, <a href="../photodb/user?user_id=6412090">Tom Howd</a>, <a href="../photodb/user?user_id=3676315">Robert Wayt</a> & <a href="../photodb/user?user_id=6412124">John Rowsell</a>.<br>

My pic is from Arabian Nights Party held last Saturday in Aberdeen. I wanted to take long exposure photos with flash of the dancers there.<br>

D200 + Tamron 17-50mm @ 24mm, 1sec, f/8, ISO400<br>

<p>Spring has sprung in south Texas! Tiny buds on some ground cover and a baby hover fly. (D90/Tamron 60mm macro @ 1/90, f/11, IS0 320.) Hope everyone has a good week! :)</p>

<p>My contribution this week is a Florida Panther<br>

Not to be confused with a Florida Cougar<br>

Panthers are an endangered species and not as aggressive as Cougars<br>

Although the Panther was in heat at the time of the shot<br>

Might just as well laugh the jokes don't get any better<br>

I posted this in a previous thread but I figure that it didn't get the exposure of this one<br>

Happy Wednesday</p><div></div>

<p>Taken with D300s and AF-s 500mm f4 with TC-14E at 1/160s, f8, ISO200</p><div></div>

<p>i grabbed this one outside the virginia wine expo, which was held at the richmond convention center on saturday.</p><div></div>

<p>Wow .. Some greate work so far today.</p><div></div>

<p>Kind of got "volunteered" to document a friend's 50th birthday party. Part of the celebration was a "roast" where we got up and shared stories, a/k/a playing the dozens with no reply allowed. This gent was particularly animated and the crowd was getting into the act with an occasional "Amen!" from the group.<br>

D700@ ISO 1600, Nikkor 24-85 @ 85mm, f/8 for 1/60th and SB-600, slight crop in LR-3</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning...Tulips are beginning to bloom at the Arboretum in Dallas, Texas.</p><div></div>

<p>Just after a Over night visit to the Vet getting Spayed. She's not very happy with me, :-(<br>

Sorry about the large Photo, Thought I had reduced the size</p>

<p>Here is mine for the week. Great pictures everyone! Nikon D700 + Nikon 70-200mm VR I + Nikon 2x TC.</p><div></div>

<p>My daughter, Eleanor and her camera shy and feisty cat, Maggie Mae...good Wednesday to you all...</p><div></div>

<p>Some really great images posted thus far. In keeping with Matts sunny theme and noticing how the days are getting longer as spring approaches, here's a sunny shot of a famous tail water that borders our property. The ice is dissipating and trout season opens in 29 days.</p><div></div>

<p>Good day Nikonists. Another shot at Fatima, the new Holy Trinity Church, under dark clowds at sunset.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning from the East Coast Nikonites!<br>

It is Wednesday again and very close to the long-awaited-SPRING season. Beautiful captures you got this week. Here is my contribution from last week. I took it when I got stuck on traffic on one of the major local roads on my way home last Thrusday - glad I had my beast with me.</p>

<p>Shot with D300s with Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 @ 24mm f/4 1/30th sec ISO100 Aperture priority [no flash] using my car door window to reduce camera shake up.</p>

<p>Please enjoy,</p><div></div>

<p>more from the road behind us</p><div></div>

<p>A lot of really cool pics this week!<br>

Here is my contribution.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi All,<br /><br />I especially like the contributions of:<br />Dan B<br />Roberta D<br />Robert W<br />Ismail B<br />Steve B<br />Aguinaldo<br />Bogdan N<br />Rck Moran - just perfect!<br />Hamish G<br />Jennifer M<br /><br />Mine is just a sign that caught my eye. D90 50mm /1.8</p><div></div>

<p>A single strand from a Golden Spider's web captured this leaf on its journey to the ground.<br>

<p>Fantastic shots as always. Caillum Smith, I love the shot of Lake Okanagan. Makes me miss driving to the west coast. I love the opportunities I get as a long-haul truck driver to bring my camera to parts of this beautiful country that I would probably never see otherwise. <br>

I didn't get a chance to get out this week but here's a shot from Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia that I took on Canada Day last year while on a run out east.</p><div></div>

<p>Took this image last week at Smoky Mountain National Park on a road called the "Dragon's Tail" that's quite popular with motor cyclists.<br>

The road is unusual for the number of tight curves but it doesn't have a lot of exposure that I expect on a road this convoluted.<br>

Also there are a lot of small pull-offs along the road.<br>

Taken with Nikon D3, 70-200mm lens at 135mm and f5 at ISO 800</p><div></div>

<p>Experimenting with my new flash!</p><div></div>

<p>Mr Pope, love that shot...That's very cool!!!</p><div></div>

<p>Here is one from last August. It was recently used as the cover for the Cub Scout day camp brochure for this years session. D100 with the 70-300 4-5.6D</p><div></div>
