Nikon Wednesday 2011: #37

[rodeo_joe1]

<p>Glad to see this thread hasn't completely gone to the dogs this week! I've only counted four so far - Sorry Matt, I know they're your favourite subject.</p>

<p>Seriously, a great and varied selection of shots, and I hope mine comes up to standard. The muse of composition must have been smiling on me this week, since everything came together in quite a few shots taken at our local Arts festival. Here's one of them, which I hope raises a smile.</p>

<p>D700 + Tamron 28-75 @ 75mm ....blah, blah, blah (read the exif if you care enough).</p><div></div>

<p>Dean Schreuder: good point, I will play with the photo in a photoshop and will separate the jacket and the hat from the background a little bit more. Thank you for kindly taking the time to critique my photo, I very much appreciate your feedback. </p>

<p>Found this gnarly and twisted tree somewhere in the Colorado National Monument and thought that a B&W conversion was in order.</p>

<p>Hi fellow Nikonistas, great bunch of pics for this Nikon Wednesday. My pic is from Cape Cod, Ma. several days after Tropical Storm Irene came through the Cape (downgraded by the time it got to the Cape). On Old Silver Beach, had 3-5' surf on this day.</p><div></div>

<p>Hello all, I've missed the past couple weeks here( working too much) but took some time off last weekend and attended the South African Food and Wine Festival at Grayhaven Vineyard in Gum Springs, Virginia. We had a wonderful time with great food, wine and entertainment which included traditional songs, amazing tap dancing by a man that studied under Gregory Hines and some dancing by this guy and his friends.</p><div></div>

<p>Not a metaphor-just a pretty high school senior who asked me to do her casual senior portraits!</p><div></div>

[dave_wilson1]

<p>Shun, I decided to join you in portraying the WTC. This shot is from 1992, I was teaching a photo workshop and we were doing skyline shots from Liberty State Park as the final assignment. This is a flatbed scan from an old 4x6. Nikon FM2, Kodak 400, 85mm f2 lens? Who could have imagined the horror to come...</p><div></div>

[panayotis_papadopoulos]

<p>Very beautiful pictures this week as well. Here are some of my favorites: Billy J Boyd, Jana Hughes, Chris Court, Wilson Tsoi, Tony Hadley, Louis Meluso, Chanh Nguyen, Doug Santo, Ilkka Nissila, Chris Wick, Dieter Schaefer, Darren Hoglund, Rachel Dean. See you guys next week!</p>

<p>Hi Folks,<br>

Great Images...huge variety this week, all eye candy!<br>

Apologies...late to the game, the workstation & XP Pro fell out...just wasn't getting useable image reproduction in PS or ViewNX..so New build OS...and I think we're fixed.<br />From last Weekends, RAF Leuchars Centennial Celebrations of Aviation in North Fife, Scotland.<br>

Not the sharpest image but I love the vapour build up on the wings. Hope you like.<br>

<a href="../photo/14216252"></a><strong><em><a href="../photo/14216252">Nikon D40X (50-500mm F/4-6.3G) 500mm, F/7.1 @ 1/500s, ISO 400</a><img src="../photo/14216252" alt="" /> </em></strong><br>

Now off to find my favourite Aviators...the feathered kind!</p><div></div>

[huntrbll]

<p>Took this last week on a visit to Florida. I have never been able to get close to dragonflies, but this one sat patiently while I photographed it from inches away with a 60mm micro.......</p><div></div>

[chriscourt]

<p>Thanks Jana, Steve and Panayotis!<br>

So any great shots make it hard to pick favorites, but a few that stand out are: Darren Hoglund, Robert Wayt, Glenn S, Dennis Brabender, David Janson.<br>

<p>Can't believe Matt considers Lex and me to be dogs. :-)</p>

[r1a2d3ok]

<p>Thanks Tiffany. Yes 2 days later She passed.:) my wife took her to school and showed her to her 1st grade class. She had a great Life. :) RIP miss moth</p>

[Matt Laur]

<p>Shun: you know how I feel about hard working dogs, so you know that was the highest of compliments! Not to mention you and Lex are much better looking, and better photographers than most dogs I've known.<br /><br />Another great week here in Nikon Wednesday Land, folks - wonderful! Thanks to those who enjoyed my moderator, uh, dog photo. Next week, no dogs, I promise.</p>
