Don`t know what to say... I was planning to post a pic with somekind of trick to show that we can post lighter images (smaller filesizes) in order to make the thread downloading faster, but I will leave it for the next week. I need a representative one. The pic I`m posting is 56Kb (not representative as it doesn`t need to be bigger given its characteristics).</p> <p>My contri today is for those of you who like to see my fashion, here it is a "see-nothing classic reflection photographer self-portrait". Check that I also belong to the "chinese policeman look" group, commented in a previous post. No gold solid Rolex or smoking, I`m afraid... ;) Seriously speaking, I took this photo while walking in front of a hairdressing salon. No Photoshopping or double images. Processed in NX2 and framed in Ps.</p> <p>Taken with a D700 @ 1600ISO, 50AFS (1/15sec. - f5.6), matrix metering with exposure compensation -0.7EV, all camera tricks off.</p> <p>Please post your favourite pic taken with Nikon gear, as usual... the thread is alive! <em>Thank you all.</em></p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamish_gray Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p >My photo this week was taken on Sunday. As I mentioned last week, winter has come to my corner of the globe and continues to pound the already weather-beaten landscape. Saturday night was no exception. We were out camping in a nearby forest and from the comfort of our tent we listened to the wind howling through the trees all night. And with the howling in mind, this picture is for me reminiscent of mother-nature baring her teeth.</p> <p >With regard to the comments last week, thank you to all who took the time. I didn’t get a chance to reply before the thread was closed. </p> <p >D300 with 35mm AFS @ f4, ISO 200, 1/2000s</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph_leotta Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p ><strong>Lets go Wide </strong><strong></strong></p> <p > </p> <p >Each week in the Wednesday thread, there’s always very creative use of perspective. I wanted to draw inspiration from this and decided that using an extreme wide angle would help get me there.

ofey_kalakar Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p>Hello, for this </p> <h2>Nikon WedNEsDAy PiC #41</h2> <p>It's early October and time to press the grape mulch for the wine. The mulch in the press is a blend of ruby cab and cab sauvignon. This is a picture of a grape press I took this past Sunday. It was shot with a 35 f1.4 AiS attached to a D300 iso 200. It is available light and handheld.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rene11664880918 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p>Good morning everyone! I'm still enjoying the beauty of Prague. </p> <p>This shot was taken at Charles Bridge. Is the oldest preserved Prague bridge that still serves its original purposes. It was finished in 1402. This is one of the watch towers (Malostranska Bridge Tower). We were walking away from it but when I looked back I really loved the reflection on the brick road and even though the shot looks a bit busy with the main tower, a smaller tower on the left and a cathedral on the back I thought it was a nice composition. this is one of many shots I took but my friend really likes this one.<br> I hope it meets the standards!

luisarguelles Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p><!--StartFragment--> <p >Well, its time for a new pic with Nikon gear. I took this one two days ago with my new D700. As you can see, the ashtray seems at first the subject of the picture. However it isn’t. The main subject is the three women in the background, but they are defocused. Is this a fault of the D700’s focusing system? Absolutely no! This is a compositional trick that I love to use: Let the main subject defocused and focus the camera in a secondary element (maybe my best known photo using this technique is this one: http://www.photo.net/photo/9243480&size=lg where the main subject is the couple in the background)</p> <p > </p> <p >About technical details, it has been taken with a Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 AF-D at f/2.8. Not sure about ISO, maybe 800 or 1250. Processed in Lightroom.</p> <!--EndFragment--></p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric_arnold Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p>well, great start already<br> my pic was taken last friday at the den, a bar at the fox theater in oakland, which was recently remodeled. to me it recalled the classic nostalgia of harlem circa the cotton club, even more so with the sepia tone i converted it to. other than that, straight from the camera.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouter Willemse Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 <p>Hooray, wednesday again, and the filesizes this week are exceptional! ;-)Mine is also small, around 62kB. <br> After a bit rainy day, the sun peaked through some clouds in the early evening. In an attempts to catch the sunrays more prominently, I tried spot metering, which turned out a bad idea... but somehow the result has got something. I think.</p> <p><img src="http://www.ww-web.nl/images/wednesday/20091003_046.jpg" alt="" /><br />D300, 16-85VR @ 38mm, 1/8000th and f/11, ISO160 or 200.
