<p>Great pics everybody<br>

hard to narrow it down but my favorites this week are<br>

Jonas' scenic shot of Ireland<br>

Eddy's portrait of Emma<br>

Louis' mask took me a little while to figure that one out at least until I read the caption<br>

Jeffery's reflection of Oxbow Bend<br>

James ....errr whatever it is couldn't find your POW though<br>

and of course Dieter seems to be a frequent standout like the car and the background too...</p>

[birdied]

<p>Wow, what great shots! I hate to post after seeing all these marvelous shots, but here goes anyway.<br>

I liked the lines on the wood, the rust on the lock, the texture. </p>

<p>Nikon D300 35 mm f/2.8 Shutter 1/640 </p><div></div>

<p>Hi all! A lot of excellent pics and overall high quality this week. I'm a bit late tonight as it's already Thursday here in Uppsala, Sweden, but I hope it's ok anyway. Shot late at night four days ago with a D700 and 50/1,4 wideopen and ISO 2000 on my way home from a barcrawl. It was a wet night... and it also drizzled from up above.</p><div></div>

[d.f._griffith]

<p>Yea, I agree, some of these pics can humble a photographer quick. Taken with D200 and 28 F2.8 AIS lens at F8 1/30s. Great work folks. Glad we have this venue to exhibit. </p><div></div>

<p>I have been viewing with an occasional post since June, and this weeks pics are some of the best. Every picture makes me happy I bought a Nikon, and that I need to practice more.</p>

<p>Apologies for the bandwidth. I had trouble keeping the size down despite a low quality export and a long edge of only 600 pixels. Maybe the range of colors is increasing the size.</p>

<p>D700, 24-70 f/2.8 G, ISO 400</p><div></div>

<p>I'm probably like millions of others who silently admire "Nikon WeDNesDAy PiC". So thanks to all the regular and occasional contributors who make this forum interesting with their diverse subject matter and comments; and finally a contribution from me, shot over the weekend.</p><div></div>

[lancenoell]

<p>Well, I got a couple of shots in last weekend before the rain started.<br>

Lower Moulton Falls, Washington State<br>

D80 - 24mm 2.8 1/2sec @ f10 w/polarizer.</p><div></div>

<p >Most things that I shoot are with the camera handheld in manual mode and without using flash. (Cricket is the one exception where I predominately use a tripod). If I deviate from the norm I will advise accordingly.</p>

<p>Hello everybody,<br>

It's nice to see some lovely pictures today.<br>

I was birding in the village of Koondukulam, in Tamilnadu, INDIA when I saw this lady farmworker weeding out the paddy fields very early in the morning. The morning dew added a sense of chill while the sunlight struck her in a good angle. Shot this image, handheld from my car, with a 300mm F/4 AFS coupled with a TC-14EII on a D700. Had a -0.33 stop dialled in. Could've shot this scene with a more appropriate focal range though, if I was willing to get off the car. But I was gunning for some Spo-billed Pelican shots before the light got too harsh. In these parts, it happens very fast too.<br>

<br />Francesco – Great composition. Wow!<br>

Jana – Nice. A slightly wider composition would've been even better. Nice tone too.<br>

Keil – Good one.<br>

Richard Armstrong – Cute. I just love these furries.<br>

Benjamin – Is it my monitor/eyes. Can't see much detail.<br>

Mark Gordon – A tighter composition would've made this a WOW pic.<br>

David Love – Touching & poignant. :)<br>

Louis Meluso – Great. Thumbs up.<br>

Scott Murphy – Love this composition and fine detailed picture.<br>

keerthi s – Heh! Heh! Good one.<br>

James Kazan – Magnificient. Amazingly good abstract.<br>

Terry Roberts – Superb tone. :)<br>

Keep it up people.<br>

Regards<br /><strong><em>Issac</em></strong></p>

<p>Apologies for the very late entry but I am just back from some work travels. As per my last few submissions, this week's image is again on the theme of the street markets in Hong Kong.</p><div></div>

[darko_vrsic]

<p>Harvey, how did your dog get the name Linux? Linux is the best operating system for computers and other electronic devices btw.<br>

Great photos everyone!</p>

My dog got that name about 10 years ago when I was learning Linux. Like the OS, she is compact and stable, and the name "Windows" just didn't sound right for a nice dog! I'll try to post a photo of her when I get one good enough for this site.<br>

[pvg photography]

<p>Jose- A perfect Halloween picture, complete w/ wodden coffin!<br>

Hamish- Nice HDR treatment. <br>

Luis- you captured the warmth of the room. I feel like I'm there, only without the sounds and aromas.<br>

Lil- Nice shot and a very interesting story about what the bird was doing.<br>

Aaron- Very compelling shot. Well done.<br>

Monika-Great job of stitching this panoramic.<br>

Jeannean- I just love looking at your insect work.<br>

Jonas- I love all the blues that come together in your shot. Very nice!<br>

Phil- your PS work paid off. That sign looks like something right out of a horror movie, not somwhere you just ate at w/ your family!!<br>

Aquinaldo- By far my favorite. Your hard work and trek paid off in a great shot.<br>

Benjamin- I love the simplicity of this shot. Next to Aquinaldo, my second favorite.<br>

Ertugrul- Lovely colors. Looks like a postcard!!<br>

Louis- Eerily beautiful.<br>

Scott- Well done. You really caught the texture of the flowers.<br>

Jeffery- Beautiful reflection and nice colors.<br>

Matt- that is one cute puppy shot. The expression that you captured is priceless.<br>

James and Eric - Funny that you guys posted one after the other, because I had the same reaction to both of your photos. I'm not a big fan of abstracts, but both are very beautiful shots. The colors and tones are amazing.<br>

Dieter- It may be a very photographed car, but I've never seen it and I love your shot!<br>

Steven- Love how you captured the bug giving you "the look".........go away and leave me alone. HA<br>

Jon- Welcome to WedNEsDAy.<br>

Igor- I do believe that the women on the right is about to turn you in to stone! :-)<br>

Greg- That is one funny bird shot. Don't think I've ever seen a bird laying down like that unless it was dead.<br>

Issac- For not getting out of your car, you did a pretty darn good job.<br>

Until next week.........</p>

[aguinaldo_de_paula]

<p>Paul V. Gorky,<br>

Thank you very much. Your words meant a lot to me.<br>

MS Keil,<br>

I think this picture will have me sent to the doctor. Regards!<br>

Tiffany Brook,<br>

Indeed this and several others I think. Thank you.<br>

Matt Laur,<br>

I love the expression and sharpness of your dog.</p>

<p>Best regards for you all!!!</p>

 

[luisarguelles]

<p>My preferred ones this week:</p>

<p>

<p>Francesco Pessolano & the perfectly distributed windows<br>

MS Keil & the place of thermodyamic equilibrium<br>

Aguinaldo de Paula & the well rendered atomic fussion processes<br>

Kemal Riza & the Eurasia boat<br>

Richard Karash & the well tunned trumpet<br>

Epp B & the autumm fence<br>

L Roth & the rusted colors<br>

James Kazan & the delicate geometry<br>

Isaac Sams & the greens</p>

<p>My overall favourite is "the rusted colors" by L Roth. The wonderful tonal range of browns suggests me images ranging from the surface of an undiscovered exoplanet to a Tapies painting.</p>

</p>

<p>Cheers!</p>

Very interesting! I would really like to see a picture of your Linux. She could even help me to convert more Wintendo users to Linux ... :-)<br>
