I finally got some images of a pelican stretching its neck. Previously, I was at that location back in 2007 and 2008. I was frustrated about getting this shot as a pelican does this once maybe every hour or so, and my composition was always wrong, cutting off the front of their bills time after time as the pelicans suddenly extend their neck.</p> <p>Nikon D700 with 500mm /f4 AF-S lens at f5.6, 1/1600 sec, ISO 200.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krisheylen Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 <p>Happy Wednesday and Happy New Year Nikon folks!</p> <p>Nothing serious this week. I've been trying out a very old laptop (Acer Aspire 3000) that I really had no use for, and if it was still fit enough to do some tethered shooting. Too slow for LR but a combination of ViewNX2 and Camera Control seems to have some possibilities. I hope Nikon software is also considered as Nikon gear :-)</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User_2019667 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 <p>Happy New Year to all. Beautiful shots so far. I drive past this old barn every day and decided to ask the land owner for permission to go on the property and photograph it. So here is my entry for today.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Shafer Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 <p>Todd, welcome, and great picture! I saw something similar once at nearby Holland, MI. It was just an ordinary winter day away from the lake, but at that water/land boundary there were tremendous waves and wind (laced with ice and sand) that could knock you right over—a dose of meteorological ultraviolence. Your picture captures much of what I remember.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finimage Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 <p>Happy New Year Guys,<br /> One from the Boxing Day 'blow away the cobwebs' walk...was certainly windy enough!...between repeated winter storms and car 'issues' I've not been getting out and about as I'd planned. So I'm going to be falling back on the archives I fear.<br /><a href="../photo/14923372">D40X (50-500mm F/4-6.3G) 500mm, F/8 @ 1/30s, ISO 400 </a> <img src="../photo/14923372" alt="" /><br /> These guys get full credit for hanging on in an absolute ripper of a wind. Especially the one legged one!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
