My main objective was a thirty year old horse, in the family longer than his current caretaker has been alive. All went well, once I had a long chat with this Shire. He's a wall of a horse, and insisted on getting between me and the old boy whose portrait I was after. Had any unexpected subjects take over a session? Share a photo!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefflipsman Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Great blue heron alighting a mound in the lagoon at Rincon Point, California. There are always quite a few blue herons in the lagoon, but rarely so blue as this fellow.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsypkin Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Hello, everyone! Great Wednesday photos again. <br> I know that many people have criticized the Nikkor 18-200 mm, but I have found it generally sharp and fast focusing. So here is another dog photo -- no time to photograph anything else.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photojen Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>A boy and his toys...yup my son, Braeden and his Lego creation. I don't know what life would be like with out Legos for him, and many young kids we know. He literally spends hours every day concocting, imagining, creating and engineering over his millions of Lego pieces (which my poor vacuum hates, lol). I feel playing with Legos is so much better than TV or computers, and it's stimulating and imaginative. I have entered this photo into a creativity Lego photo contest...</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rascal64 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Happy Tuesday from Seattle...</p> <p>Matt...Outstanding shot!</p> <p>Jeff...Beautiful capture and colors</p> <p> I rarely shoot weddings, but I took one on this past weekend. My husband and I worked the wedding and we got to try some new equipment outside. I used an SB900 on my D300 with a remote SB600 through a small softbox, handheld by my husband camera right and slightly above the bride. I look forward to refining this method and doing more!</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_harper_the_edge Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Another wedding photo. This is a play on the golf widow theme.<br> Lots of things happening this week in the midst of lots of weddings for the fall which is the busiest time here but also Washington DC fashion week is coming up and should produce some nice images.<br> Nikon D3 24-70mm at 38mm, ISO 800 f6.3 at 1/4000 sec.<br> Last week had some wonderful images.<br> Don Harper at The Edge</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_fedon Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Well good morning, afternoon, or whatever the case where you live. Some quick browsing while having breakfast and Matt has kicked off the show so I'll post earlier than normal, before nipping out to work. Staying with the zoo theme, this is a Perigrin Falcon that had just been displayed doing its thing, flying and swooping. The keeper came over to the audience later to introduce his feathered friend at close quarters. Beautiful creature (the bird).</p> <p><img src="http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/rr327/eurocypria/DSC_0219.jpg" alt="" /><br> <strong>D700, iso 1600, 1/640, f/6.3, 195mm on the Sigma 70-300</strong></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdied Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Hi everyone and happy Wednesday to you!<br> In keeping with Matt's theme ( great shot by the way, Matt) I was out looking for bugs again in a swampy area. Much to my surprise a egret flew in . Since I was low to the ground behind some tall grass , it did not see me. Unfortunately only had my 105mm macro lens on, but started shooting.<br> My surprise visit was a 4' water moccasin that was only 5' feet away from me . I was so engrossed in the egret , I did not see the snake. The egret alerted me to it when it kept looking to my left. No more swamp visits for me !</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

todd_johnson3 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Great pics everyone! This one was a taken last fall in the turn of the century house in severe repair. Taken from the Kitchen looking out to the dining room was a "pass thru" cabinet. After going out the rear entry of this old Great house I heard a man loading the chamber of his shot gun.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photo5 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Boeing's Plant 2 will be demolished, so they had to roll out the three airplanes stored by the Museum of Flight out of the hanger last Saturday morning. Here is the Museum of Flight's Lockheed Constellation Super G, fully restored to museum condition (but will never fly again). Soon it will be across the street in the Airpark.</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_wayt Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>Fascinating to come to these Wednesday threads, see the work of others, and read the responses. It's my first time posting an image here. Our local park district offered a youth soccer clinic (sponsored by guess who?) last Sunday. It was an opportunity to move in pretty close.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Sperry Photogr Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>The Elwah River flows through Olympic National Park, in the state of Washington. In 1913 a concrete dam was completed on the Elwah, blocking the spawning and migration runs of several species of salmon, steelhead, and trout. Now a multi-million dollar project is about to begin to tear down the dam. It's in the news, and it is the largest dam removal project ever in the United States. Last weekend I visited the dam, then traveled downstream to find this awesome section to photograph the Elwah, which involved a steep decent down to the river. The next day I spoke to a National Park Ranger about the project, and he was confident that the Elwah would retain it's natural beauty, and the fish would re-gain their natural environment.<br> Nikon D80 w/Tamron 17-50mm AF. Polarizer and a long exposure.</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeannean_. Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 <p>This Mexican Fritillary butterfly took shelter in a bouganvillea bush from the rain on Saturday. As you can see, it was a little wet, so was a nice subject and stayed put while I got off a few shots.
