<p>Happy Wednesday, all. Spring is happening in fits and starts this year - but the local kids seem to have it well in hand. Come to think of it, though, this scene sort of reminds me of 12:15 AM on a Nikon Wednesday. There's always somebody with that extra bit of drive. Let's see who it is today. Share a photo! </p><div>00WUZe-245169584.jpg.b1ce7cd9b262bcfb95eb95b76f53f995.jpg</div>

<p >Happy WedNEsDAy everyone. </p>

<p > </p>

<p >Thank you to everyone who commented on my photos the last couple of weeks. I appreciate your time and comments. I apologize for not reciprocating but I’ve been sick and am just now beginning to feel better. My doctor says I’ve turned the corner and am on the mend.</p>

<p > </p>

<p >I haven’t been out of the house to photograph anything for over ten days and for that reason I’m submitting a shot taken in ’07 with my first Nikon. Just looking at it made me feel a little better. I hope you like it.</p>

<p>Happy Wednesday! Well, it is May and the PGA professional golfers have arrived in Dallas, Texas for the Byron Nelson Golf Tournament. I attended the practice round this morning. My image this week is of a caddy toting a very large golf bag. </p><div>00WUZl-245169884.jpg.a49aafac8d8c49aeaf08a5c370c0e327.jpg</div>

<p ><strong>WedNEsDAy PiC #20</strong></p>

<p ><strong> </strong></p>

<p >Jelena Jankovic slams down an ace at the 2009 Australian Open. She won the match. This shot reminds me how well my "jack of all trades" lens is able to perform when travelling light. I used this lens exclusively for 12 months. </p>

<p >Camera: Nikon D200</p>

<p >Lens: AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 18-200 mm f/2.8G IF-ED</p>

<p >Settings: 200 mm, 1/500 sec, f/5.6 and ISO 100 (Manual, hand held, -1 EV)</p>

<p>Not so happy Tuesday evening from Seattle. While this is not technically Nikon gear...I have only used Nikon images with my PS programs. And...I am a pretty regular poster/follower on this thread...so here it is...my contribution...this is the message I got on my main computer...you know...the one WITH ALL MY IMAGES! Ugh...most of are backed up. Still waiting to here if we can retrieve the data. Happy Shooting and back up those files!</p><div>00WUZu-245171884.jpg.d227ae2401a6666056edd59fccec99e2.jpg</div>

<p>It's not that often that you see anyone who can still throw a knuckle-ball, much less a 12 year-old. Nonetheless, my son's teammate seems to have mastered a lost art, although he isn't exactly Tim Wakefield just yet...<br>

D700 + AF-S 300 f/2.8 VR, ISO 320, 1/1250s @ f/2.8</p><div>00WUa2-245173684.thumb.jpg.cb1494244ab2b146dfbabc994e3e5e7e.jpg</div>

<p>Tiffany, So sad. What an unfortunate thing. You can recover the data. Most computer consultants can do it even if the OS is trashed. A forensics shop, like Applied Discovery in Seattle, can recover the files if no one else can, but they are pricey. Good luck!</p>

<p>A very large concrete block resting on supports under the interstate highway. It was a counter weight for the old railway bridge featured in last week's photo. My guess is it was too big and heavy to move or breakdown, so it was left standing on steel supports. This is a 5 photo panorama stitched together in Autopano and then rendered as an HDR with CS5. You can see three of my friends wandering around in the photo to give you a sense of the scale.</p><div>00WUaI-245177684.jpg.ed1c64bc23bb420beb17e74494273268.jpg</div>

<p>Just a little lady bug...not many cool bugs yet for me to shoot~ some flies, mosquitoes and spiders...we had a good rain today, so I am hoping for tomorrow's trek, there will be some more interesting bugs to shoot. Thanks for the comments on my duckling last week. Enjoy your Wednesday all...I always look forward to seeing what you all post here.<br>

<p>Have a nice week all.<br>

Tiffany, at least you have some backup. Hope you recover all.<br>

Real men do not back up, they cry!<br>

Todays picture is from the old water mill seen from the pond, shot yesterday afternoon.</p><div>00WUaM-245179584.jpg.bacdc041032ebbe6fd7d71d8b903e4d6.jpg</div>

<p><img src="../photo/11002757" alt="" /> Weather in Candiac (Quebec, canada) has been a garden variety - sometimes spring, winter and summer. Decided to get down to the waterfront park (St.Lawrence river) yesterday afternoon and watch the sun go down. Found some 'dead wood' and some interesting reflections on the water. D300, f/8 70-300 VR at 1/8th - VR off since the camera was mounted on a tripod. D-light was set to high.</p><div>00WUal-245185584.jpg.14ad8d29daaa523c6a09d87819b3cfc0.jpg</div>

<p>Hello Everybody,<br>

Tiffany, you win a shocking photo of the week this week. Really sorry to hear, what happened to you, I hope you can still get the images back.<br>

My photo this week is from my outing to the city with my friend, she was visiting here and didn't have a tripod to try out the long exposures, so I let her use mine and I played with the camera handheld instead. I flipped the camera a little, whilst taking the photo to smudge the lights and the man in the photo added another element. I like the feel of the picture, even technically it isn't perfect. Taken with Nikon D700, 24-70 f/2.8@ ISO 3200, 1/2,5s, f/11.<br>

Have a good week.<br>

Jana</p><div>00WUam-245185684.jpg.06d23ffe9c8e7a2480ea1b154210eb31.jpg</div>

<p>Great Wednesday, everybody! And good luck, Tiffany, with your computer.<br>

I made this photograph last week in the garden of Filoli, an historic site of the National Trust of Historic Preservation, near Woodside, CA. If you happen to be in the vicinity, stop by -- you will not regret it.</p><div>00WUas-245187584.jpg.70eab37ffce3f6f23e3952e6a09e4645.jpg</div>
