pcnilssen Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 <p>So far, lots of fantastic photos this week as well. Wednesday has now become a better day for me than Saturdays! ;)<br> As so many of you have mentioned, commenting each and every photo will take too long time for me, so kudos to those of you who actually do that formidable task.</p> <p>This week, these images have reached a special place in my heart:<br> <strong>Zoltan</strong>'s Paris photo<br> <strong>Alejandro</strong>: full of action<br> <strong>Lil:</strong> nice hairdo on the bird to the left<br> <strong>Sjoerd:</strong> Nice, cool photo<br> <strong>Aaron</strong>: Strong image<br> <strong>Tim:</strong> The kind of shot I would like to hang on my wall!<br> <strong>Matt:</strong> Beautiful lighting and feeling<br> <strong>Shun</strong>: Yes, summer is definitely over<br> <strong>Raaj</strong>: You're good with those Speedlights!<br> <strong>Lex:</strong> Nice still photo <br> and for me this week, first among the first: the IR image by <strong>Jens</strong>. Beautiful! At first, I thought it was a snow-laden winter image, but it reveals more interesting details each time you look at it. </p> <p>Thank you all for sharing. I hope to see and comment many more this week!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric_blair1 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 <p>Computers giving me problems this week. I see a lot of high quality shots this week, too many to name (wish I had more time). Lil, that egret looks like he's tap dancing, great shot. Every time I think I'm getting better I come here and am so humbled, love this thread. Thank you Jose.<br> D300 w/ 18-200mm VR @ 75mm f/5 1/50 sec 500 ISO, Enjoy</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeannean_. Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 <p>Thanks once again for an enjoyable Wednesday around the world. It truly is an inspiration to look at such lovely photos, and while some appeal to me more than others (just like some prefer coffee and some prefer tea), they're all a glimpse of your world and/or something meaningful to you, and I appreciate the effort. Again, my comments were made in spurts, so if I missed someone, it wasn't an intentional exclusion:</p> <p>Jose: I agree...love the colors and frame too.<br /> Joseph: Great picture and story! I wish I could remember what Nikon I first used. Congrats on your anniversary!<br /> Mike C: Great reflection shot and composition.<br /> Anish: That's a fantastic subject. I really like the diversity of people in the background and the "hard study" look on some of their faces. <br /> Ton: Very sharp photo and the workers add dimension. <br /> Per-Christian: Great story, caption, and photo. Thanks for sharing it.<br /> Wouter: I like it. The bird adds just the touch needed for interest and contrast.<br /> Jana: Welcome! Love all the green tones and very cool feather head piece.<br /> Zoltan: Mission accomplished. The scale is great.<br /> Alejandro: Very nice photo. That horse is not only fast, but a beauty.<br /> Dieter: Beautiful colors, detail, and DOF. I love it.<br /> Chris: Beautiful colors and you managed the HDR very well. This looks very natural.<br /> Lil: Great shot! While stalking dragonflies Sat. I spotted an Egret running after his lunch. Your photo reminds me of how fun they are to watch.<br /> Bogdan: Looks like a nice casual afternoon. <br /> Pedro: Very nice. It's indeed sharp and noise free.<br /> Darko: This is such a cute shot and the scale difference between the kids and the door is great.<br /> Shawn: Your caption is perfect. That's what the photo conveys to me.<br /> Ian: Very nice composition...and you're right. Fall is coming soon.<br /> Chris N: I don't remember seeing those on my visit to Auckland. Thanks for sharing that photo. Really interesting.<br /> Jeannean: You and your bugs. Find something else already! <br /> Bernard: Very nice and I think your processing works very well.<br /> Sjoerd: Very cool photo. The first helmut pattern on the top reminds me of insect eyes. (I might need to look at other things besides bug eyes...they're invading everything I see lately. ;-)<br /> Steven van Heerden: Nice composition. <br /> Aaron: You do black & white photos so well, but I must say, I think this is my favorite so far. I'm sure it says different things to different people, but my first thought was... time chains our hands as we age. Beautiful and thought provoking.<br /> Tolga: Those are some REALLY big screws. What are they holding in place?<br /> Joe E: Fun shot and you're right...he looks right at home in the saddle and in complete character.<br /> Matthew B: Very pretty bird and cute capture.<br /> Andrew M: Welcome! That is a really neat shot. Love the bright colors and the reaction from the kids. <br /> Graham: I'm not tech savy enough to see those faults. I like it too.<br /> Ken: Beautiful shot. Love the lighting and you did well in conveying what you saw.<br /> Harvey: Fun capture and perfect composition for this.<br /> Kent: So glad you took pictures. Not only is it an interesting photo, but a reminder of how quickly "things" can be reduced to nothing, and why having a camera handy is a good idea. <br /> Wayne: From your photo, I can see why it's one of Colorado's premier scenic overlooks. I particularly enjoy these kinds of shots each week, since the only landscapes around here don't exactly qualify for the "scenic beauty" category.<br /> Richard A: Beautiful shot and love the sky.<br /> Miles: Good eye and nice contrast.<br /> Cees: Thanks for the background info. Very interesting. The wispy clouds are also beautiful.<br /> Ray: Nice sharp picture through glass. Not so easy.<br /> William P: If I had that little pooch around, I'd be disinterested in selling trinkets too. Nice capture.<br /> Jim: Sonny is a beautiful dog and I can tell he's a great companion from his eyes/face.<br /> Gwen: So glad you had a good zoo outing. I love watching the chimps too and this is an especially cute one.<br /> Murali: Very nice capture. Nature frames so much for us if we take the time to see. <br /> Dallas: That's one sharp photo! Nice Heron. <br /> Rick: Very nice "ruffled feathers" shot. Hope you made it back to the football game on time. Knowing me, I'd lose track of time. ;-)<br /> Jens: It's beautiful. I'm sure Lil would be proud.<br /> Jeff: Love this. I was kicking myself not long ago because I drove by a house with a couple of longhorns waiting by the front door. I guess they wanted dinner. It was a rather strange sight, but not so unusual for this area I guess.<br /> Eric A: Bet the music was great from looking at your photo.<br /> Benjamin S: LOL...great shot.<br /> Paul: Congratulations! Very worthy of the honor. What gorgeous colors!<br /> Tim: Love the mood of this. Very nicely done.<br /> Jim B: What a cute shot. Not a shy one in the bunch. <br /> Steve V: Great angle and the more you look at it, the more you see. <br /> Matt: This is just an awesome photo. Your hard work is evident, as well as your love for the subject. I would buy a print of this if I had any hunting dog friends. Just fantastic. (My dogs are hunters of lizards and mice...and then don't know what to do with them when they catch one.)<br /> Dennis: Beautiful flowers and thank you for the info. We have them growing here too (took a few pics back in the spring), but had no idea they take so long to bloom and are used in Leis. As I've gotten more into nature photography, I realize just how little I know about the beauty surrounding me.<br /> Jeffrey: I always like "first dance" shots.<br /> Paula: He's so cute! (and...little)<br /> Jon: Very nice silhouette that conveys that mood nicely.<br /> Lawrence: Very creative setup for an "on the spot" moment! Nicely done.<br /> Sanford: What a GREAT car and love the contrast with the green one in the background.<br /> Christian: Your caption says it all. :)<br /> Roger: Pretty and nice feather details.<br /> Roberta: Nicely done. (I'm not sure about the effort part, but it doesn't seem to take them that long to make their webs.)<br /> Hasse: Nice candid shot.<br /> Christopher T: Nice backlit shot. Some of the things we pick up hiking aren't so great. ;-)<br /> Hamish: While not as sharp as you'd like, still a great capture of a "surprise" moment.<br /> Doug: Very nice building and again, beautiful clouds. Seems a lot of people are seeing nice clouds this week where they are. (me included)<br /> Keith: Those greens really pop and add to the picture.<br /> Ken: Lovely. Tell your daughter she captured the moment well.<br /> Ofey: Wow, I don't think I've every seen such emerald green water. At first glance, I thought it was grass. Where is this?<br /> Heather: Nice highlight.<br /> Eric Angelo: I really like this. Beautiful tones and the vertical bars compliment the cylinders nicely.<br /> Thomas: That's a place I'd love to visit in the not too distant future.<br /> Randy: Very pretty. (I'd love to see a bigger picture.)<br /> Ernie: Welcome! Very cool (and funny) capture.<br /> Amy: Looks like a great time and that fisheye is a perfect lens for this. Nice job.<br /> Wayne C: Love places like that. The memories are so great.<br /> Jonathan: Lovely photo (It's a hover fly. I shot a couple not long ago and looked them up to see what type of bee they were and found they weren't bees at all.)<br /> Alex: You did well toning down the many elements on the brides arm.<br /> Deep: Hover flies seem to be out in force lately. Nice capture.<br /> Scott: Very nice lighting, architectural details, and textures.<br /> Adey: Love the composition.<br /> Brent: Welcome! Great spider you captured there. Really colorful. (I like insects/bugs/creepy crawlies :)<br /> Steve L: Beautiful shot and thanks for the interesting info as well. I like the stories/explainations a lot.<br /> Charles B: Gorgeous light and shapes.<br /> Emilio: Nice to see graffiti with a positive message. :)<br /> Rene: Glad you made it home safely. Beautiful fireworks and lovely reflection (and thanks for letting us know...no one will probably ever ask me, but it's still nice to know...and if they do, I'll appear to be smart. ;-)<br /> Doug: Wow, those are some colorful salmon! I've been around various saltwater/freshwater fish, but never any salmon. Thank you. I'm sure learning a lot today.<br /> Aquinaldo: I think there is a trend of great skies today. Another one here, plus very vibrant colors.<br /> Shun: Gorgeous. I would love to see fall foliage (especially by a lake like that).<br /> Gary: Such a sweet photo. What kind of cattle are they? Being from Texas, I thought I knew most breeds, but not this one.<br /> John K Hill: I love these foggy morning shots. Nicely done.<br /> Carey: Too funny! Love these kinds of candid photos. "Capture the moment!"<br /> Paul B: Your story makes me like this couple a lot. That sounds like a fun shoot.<br /> Waldemar: Please send me your Dine/Kiron lens. I've tried numerous times to get a used one to no avail. I promise I'll send it back to you when the monarchs return. I'll even include a nice bottle of Mexican tequila. The colors and sharpness are gorgeous. I live in South Texas on the Mexico border, so they'll be here before too long...hurry. ;-)<br /> Janne: Nice that you were finally able to get the shot you'd been thinking about. I have one in mind I've been thinking about for a LONG time at work and need to go DO IT. I think you've inspired me to finally try for a good opportunity. Thank you for sharing.<br /> Filip: Nice panorama and nice castle. Very interesting balance. I like it. (thanks for the comment on my bug...I know most people don't care for them, but they are as funny and individual as any person...really. :)<br /> Tony: I want to live your life. How long have you been "on the road"? Another nice capture.<br /> Jeffrey A: This is just...beautiful. I want to try something like this next month on a beach trip (no rocks here, but there is water, sand, and sunrise), so thank you for the technical details. We're going to celebrate my sister's big 50, so maybe I'll make her the rock stand-in. She'll appreciate that. ;-)<br /> Glen: Beautiful tones and DOF.<br /> Issac: Welcome! Very cute shot and love the framing.<br /> Phil: Gorgeous flower.<br /> Ilkka: I've seen many scenes like this from our grad students. Very nice capture of mood and lighting. (sighs of relief can be heard!)<br /> Tony P: What a beautiful little girl! <br /> Alvin: Nice looking vulture...as far as a vulture can be nice looking. ;-)<br /> Luis A: She's smoking a Camel. Wow, even with my bad eyesight I can see it.<br /> Tom S: That's some temple! <br /> Bryan: A sight that never fails to draw awe.<br /> John V: Very dapper couple. Prom has come a long way from my prom days.<br /> Antonio: Mmmmm....wedding cake and champagne. <br /> Larry G: Welcome! I really like this reflection shot. Great colors too.<br /> Sergio: Another nice reflection shot. If it was a birthday party for you, happy belated birthday!<br /> Martijn: Looks like a wonderful place for these guys to hang out and tell stories.<br /> James: Congratulations of the new camera and the shot at 1/30 handheld. Hard to do with any camera.<br /> Jose R: First, so glad you are better and cleared to resume activities. Makes us realize how important our health is. You did well with the high sun. I wouldn't have guessed.<br /> Phil Evans: Very nice clouds/reflections/mist photo. I'm so tempted to go find me a nice pond/lake somewhere.<br /> Barry: I had to google Caipirnha. It gave me "the national cocktail of Brazil". I'm a bit confused...unless this was the result of that. She looks so relaxed. <br /> Mitch: Looks like a wonderful trip with great memories. Thanks for sharing. I'd love to go there myself one day.<br /> Kris B: Love the yellow cabs highlighted.<br /> Finlay: Those strawberries look PERFECT and delicious!<br /> Robert D: Nice mood.<br /> Keith: Nice DOF. <br /> Ertugrul: Glad you had the opportunity to shoot and post! Nice shot of the birdcage.<br /> Raaj: This may have been done a million times before, but that's just beautiful. Very, very nice set and lighting.<br /> Angelo: Very colorful sunflowers!<br /> Adam: Dang, that's a lot of camera gear. The Boss still rules...at any age! Happy B-day Bruce!<br /> Eddy: Nice portrait of Emma.<br /> Terry: What a cute shot!<br /> Evan: Great candid shot and she looks like she's earned every wrinkle/gray hair the hard way.<br /> Jam: Very nice capture of the warbler. I'm amazed by the sharpness of the bird.<br /> Jason: Your picture says a lot for public transportation. :)<br /> Keerthi: What a beautiful flower. I don't blame you for "clicking away". <br /> Mark: Nice technique in a difficult lighting situation.<br /> Lance: Granny is beautiful. Love the lighting.<br /> Apurva: What a sight! Love the colors and the "ramshackleness" of the truck.<br /> Kemal: I would love to know what they are discussing. Such different expressions on each face.<br /> Michael F: Nice shot with the geometric elements.<br /> Lex: Nice DOF and that glass of ice water (?) looks so inviting.<br /> Eric B: Now that's a colorful bird! Very nice.</p> <p>Until next Wednesday...happy shooting!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhooru Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 <p>Jeannean, again, as many have remarked, prodigious effort, kindness and care in your comments. About mine, everyone was highly relaxed after the "national drink of Brazil". It is made with a particularly virulent form of Rum. I don't think I will be revisiting that drink any time soon:)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lex_jenkins Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 <blockquote> <p>Lex: Nice DOF and that glass of ice water (?) looks so inviting.</p> </blockquote> <p>Thanks, Jeannean, but I goofed in that photo. I was trying to photograph the negative space bounded by the curves formed by the table and chair. It was just supposed to be an experiment in the use of negative space. The glass was a photo ham and jumped into the picture when I wasn't looking. A bowl full of hummus and chips jumped into the frame during the next shot. Worst behaved still life study I've ever attempted. Last time I work with amateur models.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you scroll down it keeps growing nicely.<br /> Keith – the 1.4 can allow you to be creatuve with a shallow depth of field<br /> Ertugrul – another nice one<br /> Raaj – the glass chess board reflected the strobe perfectly<br /> Angelo – like the colors and the way you used the DOF<br /> Adam – you know that a messy desk(table) is the sign of genius.<br /> Eddy – super portrait with lots of detail<br /> Terry – sure looks like ou were having fun<br /> Evan – I like intense portraits like this<br /> Jam – nice crisp telephoto work<br /> Jason – good timed exposure<br /> Keerthi – The high contrast colors work well<br /> Mark – ypu ended up with a perfect exposure<br /> Lance – definitely conveys the granny feeling/experience<br /> Apurva – good enough to be in National Geographic<br /> Kemal – I like the anhle up and the way you got their expressions<br /> Michael – well composed and framed<br /> Lex – there’s a lot more to your lighting that your letting on to<br /> Eric – colorful shot<br /> Epp – super landscape, the 4 silos work well as a central element.</p> <p>Hope I got everyone, till next week happy shooting.<br /> BTW – I did get out and shot some film after playing the Nikon F’s the other night.<br /> <strong> A huge thanks to all who commented about me</strong></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luisarguelles Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 <p><em>Luis – isn’t the F2 a great camera. You do nice work with yours</em><br> Hi Joseph, the F2 is a dream of a camera. Together with my two F4 represent the kern of my "Nikon Army". And now the radar screen is showing a D700 for next month!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
