<p><img src="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tomburden/3112805765/" alt="" />My first try at posting...Nurnburg street scene.<br /> Nikon D90 with 18-105 mm f/3.5-5.6 VR kit lens. (I found the kit lens to be a bit soft, so I later exchanged it for the 18-200 mm f/3.5-5.6 VR and am much happier with the results.) Taken at f5.6@1/100.</p><div></div>

<p>My submission today is an image from The Race Track in Death Valley taken earlier this year. I was told by several people in the park to avoid this spot, as the road in is extremely treacherous, and could yield severe consequences. Drive on! Well, I was not disappointed, and made it back safely. The large rocks on the dry lake bed mysteriously move, and leave trails of their adventure. </p><div></div>

<p>Hey Dave<br>

They are around the same time period. They were my dads as well and I know got them in the 60's but I don't know the exact year. There are fun to take out every once in a while and aside from the 4 iron rattling they play pretty nicely.</p>

<p>Tim,<br>

Yes I did darken the left hand side so that the eye would be drawn to the man...Your photo looks fine on my calibrated laptop, B&W with brown/reddish tones...very beautiful light and texture</p>

<p>Hello my dear Nikon WedNEsDAy PiC #34 colleagues,</p>

<p>Amazing photos as usual every weeks. I'm little late today. </p>

<p>Shadow on facade is a candid shot. Man was walking with bird cage two days ago. Hope you like it and many cheers you to all. </p>

<p>Dear Lil I'm glad I saw your amazing post last week and still waiting for this week too.<br>

@Richard Karash, many thanks for your valuable words to my #33 post last week. I couldn't see yet your new post but the portrait last week was a nice one too.</p>

<p>Regards,</p>

<p>Ertugrul</p>

<p>Too many great images...not enough time!<br>

Ton...well deserving of the victory and wonderful capture of the winner</p>

<p>Aaron...a beautiful image...I am sure that it will get the kudos it deserves in another venue</p>

<p>Mike...sensational colors, clarity and telling of the desolation</p>

<p>Eric...no doubt!</p>

<p>Gary...I love the expression of joy in such a rocky, gray area</p>

<p>Carey...exceptional kitty photo...wonderful colors and lines</p>

<p>Barry...marvelous capture...I have always wanted to see the traveling rocks myself...great image</p>

<p>here is my image from a recent shoot that I thought quite humorous ....as babies frequently are. She is already forming her opinion about photogs making silly faces and noises at her.</p><div></div>

[jbg]

<p>Wonderful photos all. I'll try to contribute to this nifty thread once more if you guys don't mind.<br>

Found these dolls left on a brick wall in one of the streets here in Belgrade. It was quite eerie and disturbing seeing them placed like that. the way they are positioned and left there and the fact that no one removed them till this day (they are still laying there today - had to check - lol)...</p>

<p>One of my colleagues was showing symptoms of the swine flu today. He didn't seem too distressed :-)<br>

Just a jpg snapshot straight from the camera from me this week....<br /> He was actually helping me get some young pupils to smile for photographs on their first day back at school :-)<br>

D300, SB900 & 50mm AFS @ f4. ISO 200, 1/400s</p><div></div>

<p><em>"Love the old wooden boats. Am I imagining it, or do the houses look like there's a curve to them? Or is it barrel distortion?"</em><br>

Tim<br>

Thanks for the comments. The rooves were certainly old and twisted, but I think the general curve is due to the wide angle of the lens.</p>

<p>Another great Wednesday thread! Greetings to all!<br>

I am barely managing to have a look at other's terrific posts and to submit mine.</p>

<p>Hello everyone..<br>

Another fabulous Wednesday....<br>

I haven't taken any pictures the past couple of weeks but here's something that I took a few weeks back while fooling around at a friend's place.</p><div></div>

[gwen_klaus]

<p>Sunday was hot and humid so our road trip took us along Michigan's eastern coast and thumb area along Lake St. Clair and Lake Huron. Nikon D300 Tamron 17-50mm F/2.8 at 50mm and f/11.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi everyone in the Nikon forum,<br>

I'm late this time as well..... I will try to get time to comment later - but all are as usual interesting & inspiring. I'm still in Las Vegas with my sister & her family so time is still kind of not on my side. But I will try to comment later....<br>

This week my choice is of my sister & the man who's finally made my sister happy & harmonious again. I feel it shows her emotional state today as opposed to a few years ago.<br>

D700, 24-70mm at ISO 200, EV - 0.7, 1/125s, Spot metering in A mode at 66mm<br>

<p>Thank you, Eric Arnold!</p>

[jannekaakinen]

<p>Such collection of great photos again in this thread! I'm glad I took the time to stop by here before going to bed, it's been really long day and you guys just made it a bit more bearable! And special thanks to those who commented my photo last week, did not have time to post my comments for the last week's thread, but your kind words were really appreciated, and all your excellent photos too!</p>

<p>I've been really busy, again. Haven't shot much, I'm working in Oulu Music Video Festival this week. And by the way, it's the festival that hosts the Air Guitar World Championships on this Friday! Now there's a photo opportunity you really would not want to miss! :) Too bad I have only couple shortish/normal primes with me here...<br>

My contribution for this week's thread was shot one and a half week ago while I was just walking around and testing my latest cheapy lens acquisition.</p>
