<p>Howdy Nikon folk, and a good late August Wednesday to everyone. Seems our strangely hit-or-miss local summer weather has brought us at least one more generation than usual of Cottontails. That's right, I'm posting a back yard baby bunny photo. Youse got a <em>problem</em> wit dat? Share a photo, see?</p><div></div>

<p>This gal was dancing around while chattering with my mom as we waited for the bus at the hospital. As the little girl was leaving she turned to say goodbye and I snapped a photo.<br>

Nikon V1, 10-30 VR at 30mm (81mm equivalent), ISO 100, 1/800th @ f/5.6</p>

<p>No bunnies in my back yard, just some dying flowers thanks to the lack of rain and my inability to water enough. D300 with 55/3.5 AI</p>

<p>He might be a redneck.</p>

<p> </p><div></div>

<p>Two images of Portland, Oregon as night falls. I chose a different composition for each. Here is the first, captured at 8:50 p.m.</p><div></div>

<p>And now the second image. It was captured at 9:10 p.m., 20 minutes after the first photo I posted.</p><div></div>

<p>Morning folks. Here's to a great Wednesday of Nikon pictures.</p>

<div></div>

<p>One more</p><div></div>

<p>Good Wednesday, everybody! <br /> Since Matt opened up with a critter, I would use my quota of three shots to illustrate an episode in the lives of ground squirrels in the harbor of Crescent City, CA: someone brought them a tasty loaf of bread!</p><div></div>

<p><img src="/photo/17510868" alt="" />I took a lily outside my church and I decided to use it to try for the first time the 3d capability of photoshop CS5. I mapped it to a cube and this was the result.</p><div></div>

<p>Here is the second one</p><div></div>

<p>And the third one</p><div></div>

<p>It has been a while. Shot this butterfly on my in-laws yard in South Carolina.</p><div></div>

<p><img src="/photo/17507136" alt="" /> I have been scouting a few places for my upcoming Fall images. I think this location in St.Catherine Quebec has some possibilities. This shot is late in the afternoon with only a few minutes left before the sun would dip below the horizon.</p><div></div>

<p>Morning all.</p>

<p> </p><div></div>

<p>This is my son's pool. </p><div></div>

<p>D800 - ISO 200 f11 1/20s </p>

<p><img src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2841/9613846956_871ded741a_z.jpg" alt="" width="567" height="491" /></p>

<p>I'll see your bunny and raise you Bambi.</p><div></div>

<p>This series is from the Eastern Shore Thresherman's show earlier this month. Power to this sawmill is a steam tractor and lots of hand labor. The log is initially rolled onto the sliding bed.</p><div></div>

<p>Simon - that picture really has an 'air' about it.<br>

From Carnedd Dafydd - sometimes carrying the heavy gear up the hill is worthwhile.</p><div></div>

<p>The initial cuts develop a flat face.</p><div></div>

<p>And the log is rotated to square it up before cutting planks.</p><div></div>

<p>this is from a roll of Fuji film I ran through a recently acquired F2 Photomic that I purchased in mint condition still in its original box. The lens used is a Nikkor 35-105 macro/zoom. This shot was in macro mode, hand held at 100mm, f5.6 @ 250th sec. if my memory is good.</p><div></div>

<p>I am still working in Scotland, although an American, finding the place and the people most fascinating.</p><div></div>

<p>Another for this week from Scotland.</p><div></div>
