Nikon Wednesday 2012: #48

<p>With the Rut in full force "our" Big Boy cuts a fine figure</p><div></div>

<p>This little guy has been visiting my yard for a few days now that we have the suet feeder out.</p><div></div>

<p>Of Course, then he has to go spoil the moment</p><div></div>

<p>On a boring day</p><div></div>

<p>I haven't posted in a long time, but I have been following the forum and enjoying the beautiful and stimulating photographs submitted each week. My photos are three unrelated images of things that caught my eye this past week; I hope you enjoy them.</p><div></div>

<p>Second is lichen growing on decomposing granite.</p><div></div>

<p>Good day world. It's been a while but the standard here is still just as high. Here are my contributions for this week.</p><div></div>

<p>Third is of an incredible cloud show we had last night as a storm moved in from the coast.</p><div></div>

<p>Last one.</p><div></div>

<p>Bob, beautiful granddaughter! And please send your son-in-law my gratitude for his service. I hope that he makes it back home safely to his family.</p>

<p>Love them puppies - still dogless, but free...</p>

<div></div>

<p>No puppies. How about kittens?</p>

<p>Ok. Here is the pic.</p><div></div>

<p>Jupiter in proximity to the moon this evening.<br>

D800 + 1000mm f/11 Reflex Nikkor. 1/1000th second @ ISO 400.<br>

Combination of two shots to get a sufficient field-of-view.</p><div></div>

<p>Matt, Nothing beats a Pup who knows how to pose! Great shot of a great Dog. Plenty more great shots this week. I've had to delve into the archive, too much life going on and not enough time to get busy with the camera. Here's The Barge, home from home.<br /><br /><a href="../photo/16636560">D40X (18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G) 38mm f/8@1/2500s ISO 400</a><img src="../photo/16636560" alt="" /></p><div></div>

<p>Bob, be sure to tell your son in law Semper Fi from all of us Marines. (once a Marine, always a Marine.)</p>

<p>For all the pixel peepers, here's 16 mega pixels of plastic Holga lens.</p><div></div>

<p>70-300 4-5.6 non afs plastic mount G, not that much sharper than the Holga.</p>

<p>It's hard to miss, when you have a pretty girl in a funky old truck.</p>
