<p>A good Wednesday to everyone. We had shirtsleeve weather here in the mid-Atlantic area yesterday ... but it's headed back to wintery, now. Working through some post production chores on an earlier shoot, shirtsleeve weather came back to mind again when working through this photo of a Fairfax County Fire & Rescue trainer watching a fleet of heavy equipment maneuvering in some tight quarters.<br /><br />Who cares what the weather's doing. Had your Nikon gear outside? Share a photo!</p><div></div>

<p>Love the photos. My shot is from my classroom last Thursday. We had a minister visit and brought his guitar. He gave the kids a great sermon on Christian duty and got my 8th graders up out of their seats singing and dancing.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday.......<br>

I'm still working on images from last year...... I just found an expensive one :) </p><div></div>

<p>Good Wednesday, everybody! Great photos already!<br>

I made this shot in the lobby of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, overlooking it from the stairs.</p><div></div>

These girls are really good. Shot this with a D-700, 70-200 vr2 at 200mm ,f2.8 at 1/640sec,ISO 5000<div></div>

<p>Working on old negs this week. This is a shot taken with my old Nikkormat FT2 and a 50mm f2 lens during the late 70s in California. Originally shot in color, I've been playing around with b&w conversions.</p><div></div>

<p>A shot from last May.</p><div></div>

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

Here's a discovery. Chaos takes a break now and again (but for only very brief periods of time).</p><div></div>

<p>Good morning everyone.<br>

Thanks to those who commented on my photo last week.<br>

This is from the lokal harbour.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Morning Nikonistas,<br /> You've all been busy...cracking stuff so far! Caught the Surfers at it again on Saturday late afternoon...<br /> <a href="../photo/15005713">D40X (50-500mm F/4-6.3G) 500mm, F/6.3 @ 1/250s, ISO 400</a><img src="../photo/15005713" alt="" /></p><div></div>

<p>Kids got talent</p><div></div>

<p>The local Ice Festival happens during the day, but an estimated 10,000 people show up making photo's nearly impossible. So my wife and I go down later and take pictures. It was in the teens that night and after about 45 minutes the flashes and the camera started acting sluggish, so I didn't get all the pictures I wanted. This is one that I liked.</p><div></div>

<p>Our highest mountain over a lake with foreground rocks - no wonder this view is a local icon for photographers and artists. This pic doesn't transcend the cliche, but the lake was flat calm, the dawn light fantastic and the moon a bonus.</p><div></div>
