Remember: only one image each week!</p> </blockquote> <p>Hello Nikonistas, and a good Wednesday to you. I spent a couple days last week shooting a dealer's inventory of large commercial motor coaches and trailers. The sort of vehicles that are used to transport race crews, their vehicles, and their mobile garages. One of the trailers was a double-decker with a 6,000 pound hydraulic lift to get multiple cars up above the working area while on the road. It was a really challenging collection of close quarters, mirrored surfaces, odd light, and converging lines that made 12mm a special sort of crazy.<br /><br />Here's one shot from the nose of the trailer, looking back at a car on the interior lift, and one of the compartments. Only had a few minutes to set up each shot, and had a devil of a time hiding the three speedlights and their reflections. Whew! Had your Nikon gear out in a maze? Share a photo!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chriscourt Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Good morning Nikon comrades!</p> <p>I'm still processing shots from my Honduran vacation, including some rather large panoramas of the Copan ruins which I plan to zoomify and post on my website eventually.</p> <p>Also, Pirates Week starts this weekend, which means another huge folder of images to be sorted and processed, but also hopefully some nice pics for the next few weeks :-)</p> <p>In the meantime, here is an illuminated segment of Camana Bay, This little island's closest approximation of an American-style shopping mall.</p> <p>Thanks to Chris Wick and Jamie Harre for their kind words on last week's effort.</p> <p>Chris</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_serio Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Hello Matt, et al,<br> Was out last week shooting the Ft Lauderdale Boat Show in Florida. Had to shoot some chromed, highly reflective air horns used on yachts. Hit the big tent around midnight so no one else was around. But a torrential rainstorm did leave it's mark on the trumpets. Nothing like a set of toots from Kahlenberg.</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott_pogorelc Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>While my dad was in town visiting, we decided to take a trip down to the USMC museum in Quantico, VA.

robert_wayt Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Jonsrud Point, Sandy, Oregon (east of Portland). This was about 40 minutes before sunrise. On a clear day, you'll see the Sandy River winding through the center of the frame while Mount Hood towers in the distance. But on this calm morning, fog and clouds rule.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thadley Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p><img src="../photo/14537534" alt="" /> Autumn is almost over here in Quebec. Here is one taken on the river front of Candiac Quebec. The fallen leaves are only present on the grass for about 5 days out of the years. I consider them a symbol of the time in the year that I thoroughly enjoy.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jensvind Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Men at work.<br />More than 2 years ago some half brains drilled 1 inch holes into the roots of 6 100 years old tress, filled them with some kind of acid and the trees slowly died. Yesterday they all went down.<br> Have a nice week all.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtmixon Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>The photos from <strong>Robert Wyatt</strong> and <strong>Tony Hadley</strong> really stand out so far. Stunning vistas. My contribution this week is from Halloween, specifically my son taking a much-needed water break after his first cuteness-for-candy trade adventure.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeannean_. Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Happy Wednesday! Lovely photos so far, and know there will be many more. I'm very grateful the Buff-bellied hummingbird is a year round resident here in south Texas because I love them. (D90/70-300mm VR @ 1/125, f/8, ISO 640) Thank you to those who commented on my photo last week. Very much appreciated. :)</p> <p><img src="http://jeannean.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v30/p728945-5.jpg" alt="" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georg_s1 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Good morning, <br> it's a pleasure to discover the inspiring variety of this weeks contributions.<br> Steve - lot's of energy in your „Streetman”-photograph.<br> John - I've never used a soft-filter, but I like your „Cloudy Morning” a lot.</p> <p>I've shot ice-hockey last sunday and here's a snap I like somehow.<br> The D700 together with the fast 200 is a great combo for all kinds of indoor-sports.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpernal Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 <p>Morning Folks!<br> Love the Brass, Tony's sunset, and many others.
