Matt Laur Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 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 images per week, so share some work! A good Nikon Wednesday to everyone. No, this Wayback Wednesday image isn't what it seems. Well, it is ... it IS a guy smiling. But it isn't a gruesome neck wound. That's some expert moulage - injury makeup used during a mass casualty simulation conducted a while back at Fort Belvoir in Virginia. That's a US soldier headed out to play an almost-dead civilian in a not-really-collapsed building so that the SAR people can practice finding him (and dozens of others). It was an interesting sunrise, watching these folks prep for the day's training. Shot anything that ... isn't as bad as it looks? Share! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Melia Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Not gory, shot not last week, but from last fall, but it was shot with a Nikon camera (D810) and a Nikon (24-120 f4) lens : 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShunCheung Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 What happened to the California drought? Due to the recent heavy rain, a small pond formed by the sidewalk in Foster City, and the mallard ducks took full advantage of that. But the water made it difficult to reach the public bench and table, as people put boards there as temporary bridges. Nikon D500 with 18-35mm AF-S lens.

bob_bill Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Taken from inside my Florida room(sun porch). I believe one bird said to the other "no, I have never seen a 10 inch long, 77mm wide black beak before either." Maybe that 70-200 works as camo? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member69643 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Ended up returning my D500. Several times during shooting a frame or more was grossly underexposed - but frames around it were fine. Nikon told me it needed repair but as it was an Amazon purchase and they have a great return policy, I opted to send it back for refund. Now I need to decide when to get a new one. Sure wish I had a crystal ball showing when things will go on sale. :) Here's one of the last shots from my D500. My daughter playing bass in a school concert.

Matthew Currie Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Still getting the hang of the editing process. Corrected a skewed horizon and accidentally ended up with a thumbnail. Oh well, it wasn't that great a picture anyway! Here's one from last year that I had thought to post in the Nature forum, and then realized that that post is square! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Garrard Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 The theme seems to be revolving around birds and gore. I can do that (thanks, Yellowstone!) - I was going to save them for later, but they're an antidote to last week's cute sea otters. I struggled a bit with the AF for these (I have a number of blurrier ones), but given that I was shooting through a window, it could have been worse.<br /> <br /> Where's this guy taking off to? D810@ISO2200,1/800s;200-500+TC14E2@700mm,f/11<br /> <br /> (Next time I see a bird starting to take off I'll remember to spin the shutter dial so there's less blur, but at least I vaguely got it!)<br /> <br /> Here's where he(?) went. This is an ex-<strike>parrot</strike>swan. Mmmm, drumsticks. And Matt: this probably is as bad as it looks. I'm told swan tastes terrible. (Probably not good for the swan, either.)<br /> D810@ISO200,1/800s;200-500+TC14E2@700mm,f/11<br /> <br /> And finally... do I have something in my teeth?<br /> D810@ISO200,1/800s;200-500+TC14E2@700mm,f/11<br /> 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
