Nikon Wednesday Pic 2010: #17

[oskar_ojala]

<p>I feel that this week my best stuff was taken with non-Nikon equipment. I did, however, practice my skills in macros and product shots using my Nikon DSLR. The earliest spring flowers are starting to bloom here, so after a long winter I couldn't resist to go and take some shots. This shot may be a little bit busy, but I have to excuse myself with difficult wind conditions slowing me down so much that I didn't have the time to look for better angles.</p><div></div>

<p>Up very early this AM with a headache ( feel for you Lil!!!! ) As always, enjoying all the shots, but a few caught my attention...<br>

Tiffany.....superb portrait, and what a model!<br>

Enrique....looks like a dinosaur eye, and what an intense expression!<br>

Aguinaldo....Love the light and moodiness<br>

Richard....nice framing</p>

<p>My shot is from a visit to my daughter's last week. My grandson's lizard was shedding, and he wanted me to photograph a piece of shed skin. I put it on a glass top table, and got a neat three level reflection in the glass!</p><div></div>

<p>Greetings fellow Nikonians. I hope everyone had a rewarding week, shooting pictures of whatever caught their creative eye. This weeks shot was taken this past Sunday on what was a very damp and gloomy day, here in the North East part of the US. As I was looking out my window at the fog beginning to envelope my little part of the world, I thought wouldn't it be neat if I could capture the fog shrouded woods of my backyard. It is always amazing how lighting changes the mood is so many subtle ways. Looking forward to seeing what lighting did in your world this week.</p><div></div>

<p >Happy WedNEsDAy to one and all. </p>

<p >I would like to thank <strong>Tiffany, Wayne, Roberta, Doug, Martin, Fred and Ray</strong> for your our comments on my submission last week. I appreciate your time and value your kind words of encouragement.</p>

<p >My photo this week is of a very small section of the rusted and weathered chain that boarders the road leading to the Golden Gate Bridge. It’s easy to look past this barrier while viewing the Bay and looking at all the activity under and around the Golden Gate. There is probably ¼ to ½ mile of this chain separating the road from the water. I can’t imagine the time and effort that went into its construction. Hope you like it.</p>

<p>Some good airside access on Saturday with good photo opportunities. Here an A320 of Monarch Airlines taxies out for take off probably for London Gatwick, around mid-day. Its just about to turn to its right just incase anyone thinks I'm gonna get squished or sucked up into the engines. A rapidly moving scene with no margin for thought or correction. Mmmm, that noise, and the smell of jet fuel are so addictive...<br /><strong>D700, iso 200, f/11, 1/640 sec, at 300mm on the sigma 70-300.</strong><br /><img src="http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/rr327/eurocypria/DSC_4608.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p>I took my boys for a walk in the forest on Sunday and when they saw the opportunity for soldier type games they recognised that the pool of mud was a suitable way to start camouflaging their pretty pink faces. </p>

From my side, a pic from my brother's wedding last saturday. This was one of the bridesmaids with her son. Really caught my imagination. Shot with a Nikon D5000, 18-55mm VR at 55mm, 1/60s, F7.1, ISO 1800.</p><div></div>

<p>After seen all your great photos, I had to put one of mine. Taken on vacations, he was having a lot of fun. Maybe a future pilot. Who knows</p><div></div>

<p>Hi Folks,<br>

I love *every* photo posted so far!<br>

Here is another example of amateur boxing (Indiana Golden Gloves.)<br>

D90, 55-200 kit lens at 135mm 1/200 sec f/5<br>

Some Photoshop color correction of background (maybe not quite enought) lit by fluorescent lights.<br>

More comments later.<br>

<strong> Going Down!</strong><br>

<p>Wow!! Way too many nice photos to choose this week! Here is my contribution.</p><div></div>

<p>Hello, here is my contribution for this week. It is a still life of salt, pepper and sugar on an eatery table top. Again it is a film contribution.</p><div></div>

<p>i went to visit my old university 30 years after graduating, but found little evidence of the old place. notably, the cathedral seems to have escaped the general upheaval.</p><div></div>

[birdied]

<p>Wonderful journey already !<br>

I thought you might be weary with the water drops, so posting something a bit different today.<br>

I recently acquired the 105mm f/2.8 VR micro and am really liking this lens.<br>

I am always amazed what a macro lens can show us that we just don't seem to notice with the naked eye.<br>

Nature is truly amazing .</p>

<p>D90 with 70-300VR shot in the Florida Everglades. (I think the 70-300VR is an excellent piece of glass that does not get the recognition it deserves).</p><div></div>

<p>Not enough time for photos this week -- actually, I took some shots over the weekend, but ran out of time for editing -- so here's another from my friend's band's gig two weeks ago. As usual, I'll be back later once I've had a chance to properly assess this morning's exhibition. So far, it's among the best WeDNeSdaYs ever!<br>
