<p>Another week and another collection of photos that would make a great coffee table book! My compliments to all, especially:<br>

Matthew: great shot especially through a window.<br>

Shawn: a lovely photo and the lyrics are from one of my favorite songs...very nice.<br>

Indranil: Love the colors. Do you recall the film that you used. Looks like slide film.<br>

Richard: very artistic and good color balance. Purples can be tricky.<br>

John Demarco: We Shall Never Forget !</p>

<p>So here's mine. Another boring lilly from the back yard. It's a shame each of these blooms only live for a day!<br>

D3 24-120mm @ 100mm f/11 Aperture Priority</p><div></div>

<p>One of the best sites around. Here's my contribution for today</p>

[sanford_dickerson]

<p>I'm really having a difficult time with uploading and displaying my photos. Can't seem to get it right. Oh well, I try again. This is my contibution for today, the Philadelphia Boat House Row along Kelly Drive.</p>

<p><strong>Per-Christian Nilssen:</strong> After taking the picture, the bird on the right told me it was a joke and did not hurt the other :)<br /> <br /> <strong>Janne Kaakinen:</strong> Thank you four your comment...</p>

<p>My first try at submitting a photo. Not a Wednesday, but on the way home from Michigan's Upper Peninsula at 4:30 P.M. I dearly love taking pictures of the Mackinac Bridge. Everyday, every hour the lighting changes giving the bridge a different look. Taken with my Nikon D300 with Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 lens</p>

<p>My shot this week is of my son Connor. He's the goalie for the local under 8's. The tournaments are coming thick and fast at the moment. This one was taken on Sunday using my D200, Tamron 90mm. 1/1000 sec @ f/2.8. </p><div></div>

[waldemar_giers___kitchener]

<p >Great work everyone like every Wednesday.<br>

I love to photograph dragonflies and never have enough of it although its not easy especially during windy day like last Sunday.</p><div></div>

[hanappa]

<p>Went to the museum over the weekend with the kid, did some iso-800 shooting indoors while he tried with the P&S with a little less success. Of course, he then went home and made a stop-motion movie with Legos using the P&S, a mini-tripod, and laptop, so I guess he figured out how to get the best out of it after all (and the P&S is a Nikon too). Today's submission is Wulfenite. I had intended to post a pic of the second set of teeth of a Mosasaur, but I liked the colors in this one.</p><div></div>

<p>Thanks all. No secret, just going out there. A lot</p>

[Kent Shafer]

<p>David Love: Wow! Not only Rembrandt lighting - it looks like an actual Rembrandt.</p>

[wpahnelas]

<p>when i saw waldemar's photo of the dragonfly, my jaw dropped -- i have an almost identical shot i made the other day. it's uncanny!<br>

here's a yellow-breasted chat, one of the most inventive vocalizers in bird-dom. you'll hear him long before you catch a glimpse!</p><div></div>

[Tony Rowlett]

Kent, the photograph of the toy that your father made for the kids... I love it on several levels, not the least of which is the craftsmanship and obvious love that your father put into it - it is heart warming.

[rarmstrong]

<p>Gwen, the Mackinac bridge is a wonderful subject...where is your photo?</p>

[matters410]

<p>Hi all. Great pics! Jose- nicely sharp for 1/30th sec @50mm. My offering was taken in the evening in very harsh light, but it's ok, I think it brings out the texture in the wings. 105 micro VR</p><div></div>

<p>Only just got to my computer, and already there are so many good pictures up! Here is my contribution for this week, shot last Thursday at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The hawk was keeping an eye out from its perch on top of a griffin-shaped gargoyle on the top of the museum. Shot handheld, adjusted and cropped in PS.<br>

<p>Wow. I see that there are a lot of people who really look forward to this thread. Great collection...as usual. Too many to comment on all, but Bruce...your race horses really grabbed me. "Take what you can get" is indeed a humble statement for your very vibrant, perfectly timed shot. Here is my start of a new bunch that I have been wanting to do for awhile (thank you to my friend and fellow photog Chuck for the suggestion)</p><div></div>

[eric_arnold]

<p>bruce and per-christian, nice work with the 50-150...i havent taken many landscapes with mine, but after P-C's shot i may have to start.</p>

<p>chris court, you're almost too good...that ship looks pirate-y. like the quote too.</p>

<p>lil, foud your baby chick quite endearing--and quite sharp.</p>

<p>sanford, was that in new orleans?</p>

<p>nice work, everyone. thanks again for sharing.</p>

[sjoerd_leeuwenberg]
