<p>Good morning again! So many beautiful shots here already! This wild blue iris grows on the shore of the lake where my family has a cabin. It was taken with my D300, 80-400mm VR at f6.3, 1/320 sec, iso 200, 185mm, handheld.<br />Have a fine day everyone!<br />Dick</p><div></div>

<p >I took this image last evening at sunset. My image was taken with a Nikon D300 with a 200-400mm VR F4 lens, with the VR off and on a tripod. ISO 200, 1/2500 sec. at f16,</p>

<p >-0.3 EV. I used manual focus and manual exposure mode. I was trying to get the sun centered over the walk way, but I wasn’t able to compose that shot. I will have to wait till the sun starts setting back further south west. Maybe in a few weeks. Thanks for looking…</p><div></div>

<p>Hm..Wednesday again. Here is mine, a shot last week, the only clear night in 2 weeks in Maine.<br /> Nikon D700, 24mm AF-D, f8 for 25s. Pop up flash.....<br /> Price: about 10 mosquito bites... :(</p>

<p>and no red in it, darn... :}</p><div></div>

<p>Some Great shots all ready today I particularly like:<br>

Per Christians scenic shot I don't know if it is AM or PM<br>

Dieters palace looks like you managed to get everybody out of the way<br>

Leo's night shot<br>

Pedro's building nice color combination<br>

Richard's flower I guess spring finally hit the U.P. you must of gotten up at 5 AM to post<br>

My contribution this week is a Weedy Sea Dragon I took it with a D40 50mm 1.8 lens at 1.8 and the ISO cranked up the lens won't AF on the D40 and I am having problems getting it to decent focus on the eye. Guess that my eyes aren't as sharp as they once were.<br>

Any suggestions? Pick up a 35mm AFS if they ever become available? Wear magnifying glasses? Or maybe using a DK-21M eyepiece? (has anyone had any luck with one of these)?<br>

Thanks for any suggestions</p>

<p>Wow, there is some serious stuff here this week. Mine was shot in Chicago on Sunday. Sun was directly overhead but you take what you can get......</p><div></div>

<p>Dennis, the shot is taken 22:06 Norwegian time, that is 10:06 PM, i think.</p>

<p>Just got back from a recent business trip to the UK. While there, I took a Sunday drive to the coastal town of Whitby - an old whaling town that sits on the North Sea. The attached is a picture of a 7th-century Benedictine abbey that rests on a bluff overlooking the town. If my information is correct, it was founded in 657 by the Saxons. I hope I look that good in 1300 years!</p>

<p>Benjamin, actually, it is. A little bit ;)</p>

<p>Ton: Once again you have a wonderful contribution that make me smile.<br>

Indranil: Very nice, I really enjoy Moab and especially the area around Fisher Tower.<br>

Ian: Very nice colors.<br>

Richard: Your Iris is fantastic.<br>

Here is a shot from Sunday in Tromsø Norway. Nikkor 28mm, D700.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi, <br>

Elder lady is passing in hurry front of famous coffee brand's commercial. Probably she was curios about to entering photographer's frame or not. Taken one month ago...<br>

Many cheers you to all,<br>

</blockquote>

<p>The chapel is closed to the public - the hallway from which one can see into it isn't - and it was crowded that day (and probably is every day). Maneuvering into position in the doorway and avoiding to get bumped into isn't easy - and as Lil pointed out (thanks Lil) - the chapel is a tad dark too. Oh what one could do with a tripod and some "uncrowded" time in that place...</p>

<p>Good WedNEsDAy morning, afternoon and evening, fellow Nikonistas!<br /> Excellent shots again everyone! My favorites in this weeks thread so far are photos by Ton, Alejandro, Trevor N, Eric A, Pedro G, Lil, Matthew B, Kemal R (the funniest one!), Kent S, Ryan A & Benjamin S, Scott P, to name but a few.</p>

<p>I traded my Nikon 18-200 VR to 55-200 VR last week and today I took the new 55-200 for a walk. And I must say that I'm happy with the results & the trade, the 55-200 VR seems to be better than the 18-200 VR for sure. So this one was shot today (btw, Jose, does pink count as red? :) ), here's the "Leader of the Pack" :)</p>

<p>Great photos everyone.<br>

<p>Good work, Tolga. I usually find TMX a bit too contrasty for bright sunlight and shadow but it seems to have done well for you in Perceptol. I have a few packets I've never used, might need to give it a try.</p>

[jerry_schuler]

<p>Per-Christian,<br />"Jerry: I found the bird! ;) I guess we next week will see a macro shot of one of those blood sucking bugs? ;)"</p>

<p>It looks like the powers that be deleted my photo showing the bird in it's habitat. Oh well, I posted a few crops of it. It turned out it wasn't a Great Blue after all but a Greeny. <br />Sorry, after I surgically removed the bug (I still have a 3" diameter welt on my leg), I was not in the mood to get my macro gear out even though the bug was still alive.</p>
