Matt Laur Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Important: please keep your image under 1000 pixels on the longest side for in-line viewing, and please keep the FILE SIZE UNDER 300kb. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site (at Flickr, Photobucket, your own site, etc). Are you new to this thread? The general guidelines for these Wednesday threads are right here:http://www.photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00W7km. This forum's moderators are allowing up to three Nikon Wednesday images per week, so share some work! As an interesting May surprise, we're having an off-schedule emergence of Brood X (or maybe Brood VI) of the local periodic Cicada population. The nymphs have been crawling up out of the ground (usually around tree roots), and doing their thing: they move up onto the trunk of the tree, then shed their current exterior, and become either their clumsily flying selves, or a very nice bird snack. A little later on, they'll start their truly astonishingly loud social symphony. Here's one I spotted while out walking the dog tonight. It was working its way out of its older exoskeleton, and back-lit by my flashlight. Shot it with a Sigma 105/2.8 macro on a D810 with the ISO cranked up so I'd get a decent shutter speed. This nymph will spend most of the night getting used to his (or her?) new wings, and generally just stumbling around trying not to get eaten. Shot any unscheduled events? Share some photos, Nikon people - it's Wednesday! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidTriplett Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 From a recent trip to a project site near Canyonlands National Park, Utah. This started out in color, but I think the B&W version is more compelling. Nikon D7100, ISO 100, 1/80s, Nikkor AF-S18-105/3.5-5.6G DX VR @ 18mm/16. Who says this kit lens can't be sharp? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Melia Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Not recent (being from back in the summer), not on topic, but just because it was done on a Nikon Camera clergy parking 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
