For those of us here in the US, it was a long weekend - so surely those extra 24 hours of pure photography-only time (right?) will make this week's collection even better than the usual terrific. For myself, I decided to slip back into my comfort zone, and spent the weekend photographing dogs in action. Here's a Springer Spaniel out after surrogate prey in the field. She'd just spent an hour swimming around in a creek, and wasn't even a <em>little </em>slowed down. I have no idea what her owners must have to do to get her worn out for some peace and quiet. Where did you point that Nikon gear this last week? Share a photo!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanay Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Happy Wednesday again!! Matt... a superb dog picture! What a start! Bill... that's a beautiful painting like photograph! Wonderful! Lorne... amazing detail of that owl and great moment! This is one of the Patton Tanks captured from the Pakistan army during 1975 war. It was a present given to the State of West Bengal by the All Ranks of Eastern Command. Since this tank has a historical importance, the state preserves this very well in a vast ground, which is a beautiful spot in Kolkata.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gary_sempler Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I shot this using my D700, 300 F4 The 1.4 converter & SB-900 for fill. It gives me a nice 420mm portrait lens.I use this combination a lot trying to paint the background. Jana. Your work is always top notch.

robert_wayt Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 <p>There are lots of dog lovers on this forum (myself included) so when my son visited this past weekend and brought his black Labrador, I grabbed the camera. Her name is Bailey and she is HIGH ENERGY :-) Managed to catch her in the backyard, but I'm not sure how at 1/30 of a second (evening light). An instant later, she was off and running.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
