<p>Good Morning! A very busy week this week. Didn't get back to look at the rest of the great shots on this thread. Trilliums are blooming in our woods. This one was shot with my D300, 105 mm micro nikkor at f5, 1/100 sec, iso 200.<br>

Have a great week!<br>

<p>A lot of terrific shots already.<br>

Below is a pic in a local park after rain and heavy dew. There were broken spider webs everywhere with rain drops hanging on them like little jewels. It was wonderful!<br>

<p>My daughter needed to complete a school photography assignment, so I took her to a local university for some subject matter. I took this while she was snapping off two rolls of B&W film.</p><div></div>

<p>Good morning Wednesday viewers. Just got back from our grandson's wedding in AL and a trip through MS. GA, TN, KY, and OH to see grandkids and great-grand kids. After 73 years of driving through TN, I finally got to drive through the Smokey Mountains. My photo today is from one of the many overlooks available with good turnouts to get out and take photos. Nikon D300, 18-70 mm lens.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi Nikonian folks, can you believe it, my laptop crashed. No worry, I'm full backup, just the trouble of reinstalling everything and do some cleanup. Meanwhile, I still have my netbook. No picture for this week. There are very nice pictures already. The ones that caught my eye or my mind.<br /> Matt L. <br /> Mark L.<br /> Tiffany : Oups Like your picture and understand EXACTLY what you are going trought<br /> Sanford G.<br /> Scott P.<br /> Tony H.<br /> Apurva<br /> Herb M. I like her style<br>

See you all next week (hope so)</p>

<p>Up up and away into the wild blue yonder, next stop London, 5 hours away. Trouble with these long shots in the hot climate is that you get a lot of heat haze between the subject and the camera which distorts the edges. No way am i going to get any closer that.<br>

<p>First of all, many thanks to to Jose Arnaud, Doug Rice, Mark H, Narayan Kovvali, Jamie Harre and Jonas Fjellstedt for complimenting my first attempt on waterdrop picture I posted last week.<br /><br />I have to cheat and post a picture I took in a golf tournament I played last year. Ironically, golf is the reason I did not find time (shame on me!) to shoot pictures this week. It's hard to juggle between two of my favourite hobbies in the summer. I will try harder next week 8><br /><br />D700 + 70-200mm vr1 + 1.7TC; 1/500s, ISO500, f/4.8<br /><br /><strong>Golf Buddies Soaking Golden Hours Sunlight</strong><br>

<p>Hope everyone has a great Wednesday. I know mine has started well just looking at these images.<br>

I found myself crawling around my yard this past week looking for bugs. This is my first photo ever of a lady bug.<br>

I was so thrilled to find in sitting on the parsley in my herb garden. I'm sure they have been around in the past, but I did not take the time to look and see. </p>

<p>Hello to all, As always just beautiful images again from all around the globe. It still amazes me and inspires me even more.<br>

I was at Lake Lemon in Indiana a week back and riding around the lake I found this creek and just fell in love with the lighting. I did do a post treatment of Velvia. <br>

I will be back later and comment on some of the submissions. Thanks for a couple of nice mentions last week.<br>

<p>This one taken above Boyne Mountain in Northern Michigan. Who says the D90 is only good to ISO 1600?</p><div></div>

<p>Greetings, Nikon Buddies. Lots of nice work this week; sorry I'm too rushed to comment on specifics. Maybe I'll get to that, later. In any case, it's great to see so many interesting shots.<br>

My picture is the sunset behind the construction at the university football stadium from a couple weeks ago.</p>

<p>Sorry mates my computer didnt want to co-operate with me this morning it took some motivation to get it right.<br>

Here is a shot from Monday just playing with some smoke photography.</p><div></div>

<p>Saturday was a long-awaited graduation day for my daughter. Pic here is just after she received her doctor's green "hood". She was really trying to be as restrained as the ceremony, but just couldn't suppress that "No s..., I did it!" smirk. D700 on ISO 2500, Micro Nikkor 105mm at f/5.6 at 1/125.</p><div></div>

[tom_serio]

<p>Nice shots today all. Great shots of the airplanes. Although it can't be said enough about backing up your photos and critical files, make sure you put the backup copy in another location than where your computer is located. I backup to three different portable drives, with one of those stored in my office 20 miles away.<br>

At a ferry port near Tacoma, WA, caught this gull admiring the boats.</p>

Priceless! Here is my contribution: nothing special but it might demonstrate the capabilities of one of my favorite lens, the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 on a Nikon D90.</p><div></div>
