<p>Another picture from the zoo on my late, lamented Nikkor AF 70-210mm f.4-5.6D. I've just picked upa used 70-300mm VCII to replace it so I've got to get it out and test it. </p><div></div>

<p>My contribution this week: a long exposure picture (5 sec at f/11, ISO 200). Camera: Nikon D300s, lens: Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR I, tripod. I used a Schneider B+W neutral density filter No.110, that means 3.0 or 1000x. It reduces the light by 10 stops. The wind moved the sailboat, and the other boat was moving towards me.<br>

Hope you'll like the photo. Regards, Miha.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi all,<br>

Stunning work here again today. Matt, Gej & Narayan.. love your photos.</p>

<p>I like Matt's suggestion to post something out of our usual elements. So, no dance, no architecture, no food for me today. Instead, something I almost never photograph --- animals (admittedly, except for last week too!) These Rockhopper penguins are in the New England Aquarium.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Wednesday everyone. The snow is finally gone and there was a break in the rain. The sun was out and so was I; walking around Dodge Park enjoying the 60 degree weather and taking pictures. Nikon D300 Tamron 60mm f/2.8.</p><div></div>

<p>Good WedNesDay everybody. My contribution is one of the last pictures I was able to take of our beloved Minnie. She passed away last Sunday, aged 12.</p>

<p>D90 with Tamron 17-50 f/2.8.</p>

<p>Some really wonderful photos up already! Thank you to those of you who commented on my hummingbird last week. It was appreciated. :) Since landscapes are very much out of my usual element, I'll post this recent shot of a field of giant sunflowers. Probably not the best day to shoot them since it was very windy and partly cloudy. It's also very flat here, so added a small fisheye effect in PS. (D90/18-105mm @ 1/1000, f/8, ISO 200)</p>

<p>Greetings,<br>

Here's one taking a few weeks ago.<br>

These guys are about to leave the nest.</p>

<p>Good morning, my contribution is a HDR (two-image, -2, +1) view of an English garden. 12-24 Nikkor at 12mm.</p><div></div>

<p>Nice! Happy Wednesday!</p><div></div>

<p>This photo was taken East of the Pompano Beach Executive Airport just after the blimp took off from its base.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday<br>

Here is my contribution for the week<br>

Reducing the size really reduced the detail</p>

<p>Very nice pics today. Love the baby ospreys Rick Moran. Mine is just a working bee helping with spring chores. Nikon D3, Nikon 300 2.8, Nikon TC-20E III, 600mm, F/13, 1/1000sec, ISO 800, Mono pod</p><div></div>

<p>Greetings from the depths of northern Ontario.<br>

<em><strong>Gluttony, thy name was Pearl!</strong></em> I cleaned out the Koi pond this past weekend. All sorts of delicious morsels were exposed as the water drained (insect larvae, young plants, etc). Pearl took advantage of this and gobbled herself to her demise. She was pure white and about 6cm long when we got her 9 years ago. She is survived by her much larger pondmates Pasty and Spotty, her shubunkin sister 'White Lips', and her spawn 'Mini-Pearl' and countless little Koi that have not changed colour yet.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning to All. Greate Pictures already. I saw these two yesterday napping at the backyard.</p><div></div>

<p>Early morning misty hike to Jensen ledges via the Bouchoux Trail in the Upper Delaware Valley. This tributary flows into the Delaware River, a border tailwater that separates New York from Pennsylvania.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning Nikonites!<br>

Here is from my Spring 2011 Collection (right by my office)</p><div></div>

<p>Simply too many great photos today to comment on. Unfortunately I don't get the time to get out to photograph as much as I would like, so my meager contribution is just another flower photo I managed to snap in a hurry. Kris, I am sorry to hear about your beloved Minnie, she looks like she was a sweet pup.</p><div></div>
