<p>Nikon Buddies,<br>

Interesting shots this week. Among them: Sanford G, Tony H, Hamish G, Anish M, David J, Doug S, Alejandro H.<br>

One of the great things about flag football is that you get to see the facial expressions that helmets and facemasks would mostly hide. This ball carrier is on his way to one of four touchdowns in a compressed game (it gets dark too soon with no stadium lights).</p>

<p>This is from a group of photos I took last summer and then "misplaced", and just found the SD card again! I had never taken pictures of my grandkids swimming underwater, so was surprised to discover how the water distorted their bodies!!! I adjusted contrast, brightness, saturation, but the distortion is just as it came out of the camera. I love the effects!</p><div>00XWIa-292315584.jpg.be2e2ca832a79e81d567a793c3c70c90.jpg</div>

<p>Favorites so far today:<br /><br />Robert Premkumar - great colors<br />Hamish Gray - outstanding image, great contrast (although I am NOT happy you're reminding me it's coming back......)<br />Dieter Schafer - very nice, can almost feel the waves breaking at my feet</p>

<p>Here's one of the fall colours near my home.....</p><div>00XWLx-292375584.jpg.3d7e6805fd31cec707d3485397613c5a.jpg</div>

<p>Hi all!<br>

Last week I took my D700 and 180mm to a meeting with the newly appointed Minister and Secretary of State of the Ministry where I work. As an amateur it was kinda fun to rub shoulders with the pro shooters :-)<br>

Also last week I attended a seminar with Guy Gowan and I'm now experimenting with his PP techniques. I thought this one came out quite well.</p><div>00XWMU-292381584.jpg.bf9ad0a8a040e9b4f170087859e58fc0.jpg</div>

<p>As always... great shots today. My faves so far are from Leslie C (love the mood and the story it tells), Roberta D and Jeanne H (too funny!).<br>

This was taken at my favorite birding haunt in S Florida called Wakodahatchee Wetlands. I usually concentrate on the wildlife but the sky was interesting so I decided to shoot the wetlands themselves. BTW, this is a very nice time to see wildlife in S Florida. Come see us.</p><div>00XWNY-292401584.jpg.88076f25b2a443eadc8774b9b7a23fc8.jpg</div>

<p>It's a rare thing when I get to shoot just for fun; today was one of those times.<br>

I grabbed my camera and downtown I went.</p>

<p>This is Joseph.<br>

I don't know Joseph.<br>

He stopped because he saw me shooting.<br>

Joseph told me he was a photographer in NYC many years ago.<br>

He said he personally knew Andy Warhol. He told me about his days in Greenwich Village.<br>

I have no idea if any of it was true; but it sure was fun shooting in the street and talking with this gentleman.<br>

We talked for 20 mins. Thanks Joseph.</p><div>00XWPU-292429684.jpg.5015ad2dc9ddea16bdb1e78937534cfe.jpg</div>
