Remember: only one image each week!</p> </blockquote> <p>A happy Nikon Wednesday to you all, and thanks again to all who participated last week - lots of inspiring contributions. In a bit of a departure this week, some on-they-fly fun from an early morning at a local 5k run. The organizers placed musicians at strategic spots along the route, and just before the final stretch, a young group of guys specializing in Metallica covers was positioned to give the runners a final jolt on their way to the finish line.<br /><br />Feeling a bit of whimsy, and as an exercise, I put an SB-900 on the sidewalk camera right, set to fire as a CLS slave. A quick test exposure to make sure I was getting some rock-and-roll drama, and then a shot straight to JPG. And while sitting in the grass next to the band's bass player, piped an image from the D300 straight into the iPad that lives in my Urban Disguise bag. About 45 seconds spent in a cool app from Nik called SnapSeed, and the image below was on its way by e-mail to the band. SnapSeed is actually a very capable straight-up editor, but you can also use its "grunge" filter for fun and games as seen here. I know, I should stick with dogs. Used your Nikon gear to produce anything strictly for amusement? Share a photo!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich_johnson3 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 <p>Thanks to Tiffany for her comments on my picture last week. This shot shows a car that brings about amusement every year at the Minnesota Street Rod Association Back to the 50's Car Show. It is a pint sized version of an old Mercury that brings plenty of looks from the crowd.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marklcooper Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 <p>No iPad. But I used my D300 with 17-55 f/2.8 and my SB900. On a tripod. Aiming at a somewhat wilted flower arrangement in the lunchroom at one of my clients. Overhead fluorescent lights on. Everything set to minimize background. On-camera flash set as master to off-camera SB-900</p> <p>From last summer. Nothing new recently.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pass it almost everyday and this morning I decided to stop and capture a few shots.

CoryAmmerman Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 <p>This is from a session in the back yard earlier today (actually yesterday now that it is past midnight). I decided to see what I could do with shallow depth of field, which is a bit of a departure for me in that I'm usually striving for<em> more</em> depth of field with my macro work. It's a small bunch of crape myrtle buds just starting to bloom.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thadley Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 <p><img src="../photo/14225054" alt="" />Good day to everyone. Lots of beautiful images and too many to mention:<br> Jana well captured and figuratively appealing (*_*)<br> Steve - love the car - love the colors.<br> Jose an appetizing dinner and good image.<br> I had not visited the Lachine rapids (near Montreal) for quite some time so I went there yesterday and the pickings were slim so i shot some turbulent water. The only thing I did different on this was to change my picture control on the D300 from Neutral to Vivid.<br> My Nikkor 70-300mm was stretched to the limit and with the camera on a manfrotto tripod and Vibration Reduction turned off, I shot a few images because you are never quite sure what you are going to get because the waves seldom repeat the same action - always a small variation. And how do you chose which one to share? - It is hard to explain but when you see it, it stands out.<br> All the best and thanks to everyone who mentioned my last submission.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
