<p>My shot this week is from a hike my wife and I made last week into the Cascade Mountains in Washington State, this place is call Meander Meadows. It was taken with a Nikon FM2, 35-70 f3.5 lens, loaded with Ektar 100 film. This is right from the scan.</p>

<p>Thank you for looking,</p>

<p>Happy Wednesday!</p>

<p>Went to a hot air balloon glow in St. Louis' Forest Park last Friday night. The race was on Saturday, but the Friday night glow always draws huge crowds. Beautiful night...would've loved to been the person with the air horn that signaled the pilots to light 'em up!</p><div></div>

<p>A shot of the spot on "Indian Crick" where we swam as teenagers almost 50 years ago. If anything it is more scenic now than it was then. Nikon D50, 24mm Nikkor.<br>

<p>Hector, fresh from sunning himself on the window ledge, decides some tummy tickling is required from me (instead of playing with my camera). Captured just at the start of his roll-over.</p>

<p>Deception Pass separates Fidalgo Island and Whidbey Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington State. Very deep and narrow, the area has a swift tidal stream (faster than 6 knots when this picture was taken just after max flood). The area was first mapped in 1792 by the Vancouver Expedition.</p><div></div>

<p>Well..... I finally made it home after a 400 K drive..... Uhmmm! The time 0:05 so Happy THuRSDaY everybody!</p>

<p><strong>Just a second to congratulate everyone for such an excellent work.</strong> I think you guys won't be needing my guidance anymore! :)</p>

<p>Sorry but this shot is 3 weeks old. The local firework display. Niigata Prefecture, Ojiya City. They shoot the fireworks from a little island on the Shinano River which is the longest river in Japan. It divides my city in East and West.</p>

<p>So if anyone ever asks, you guys already know!</p>

<p>Cheers!</p><div></div>

<p>hi folks,</p>

<p><strong>Joseph Leotta, </strong>congratulations on your 40th anniversary. It will be my 5th next year.</p>

<p>Well i have had a very busy week. I finally saved enough pennies to buy myself a D700. I am really struggling trying to find a raw converter. I used to use <strong>Rawshooter Premium</strong> for my D200 files, but it wont recognise my files from the D700. I really liked <strong>Rawshooter </strong>and if anyone knows of any tricks to get it to work with D700 files i would be more than happy. I have downloaded trial versions of Lightroom, Capture 1, Bibble 5, Capture NX2 and Rawtherapee but cant seem to get the shots looking how i like them. </p>

<p>My shot this week was taken in the lake district using my D700, 135mm 2.8 series E lens @ f/2.8, 1/640 sec, iso 200.</p><div></div>

<p>Hello All. I don't always get a chance to post but I sure enjoy and look forward to this thread every week. Always some great shots to be seen.<br /><br />I took this shot on the way into work this morning . I'm fortunate to be able to skirt a little countryside before driving into the city. This is a typical fall morning with a little fog to the set the mood.<br>

D300 iso250 120mm 1/500sec @ f/11<br>

<p>Hi guys ! This picture was taken in a so called pre-wedding photo session. It was a very fun experience to shoot in public places with this couple, as the groom and bride was wearing short pants and beach slippers :</p><div></div>

<p>This week one more Monarch butterfly from me. This one is feeding in my garden before long journey to Mexico. Many, many great photography this week again.</p><div></div>

[jannekaakinen]

<p>Great to see you and your beautiful photos again!</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone who commented my shot last week, again I found myself too busy to throw in comments for last week's thread (I really liked photos by for example Jose A., Ton M., Jeffrey A., Mark M, Juho N., Shane S. & Aaron B. in last week's thread!). I really must make time for this week's thread, looking great!</p>

<p>My shot for this WedNEsDAy-thread is my regular morning view on my way to work, shot on a early Saturday morning. A study of rhythm if you will, finally had time to take the photo I had thought of taking for weeks. (And the platform was finally empty!) :)</p>
