<p>Haven't had time to see all the contributions yet, but "Roses behind Glass" stands out as one of my favourites so far.</p>

<p>This is a picture of one of England's few Baroque churches, and its self-proclaimed finest. Built in the 18th century and dedicated to St. Michael and all the Angels, it serves the nearby village of Great Witley.<br>

The picture is a combination of 3 exposures and several layers to retain detail in the stained glass windows and to obliterate other sightseers. D700 + 28mm f/3.5 P-C Nikkor @ f/5.6 and ISO 1600. Some correction for the mixed lighting done in afterwork.</p><div></div>

<p>Just received my Tamron 90 macro yesterday<br>

thought that I would share an image showing the magnification ratio<br>

this picture is an 1892 dime<br>

it is the same size as a current US dime for reference<br>

not the best condition but how would you look after 120 years<br>

I think that this is maxed out as far as it will go<br>

the dime was 4 inches from the front of the lens and 10 inches from the body on a D7000<br>

the background is a gingham tablecloth <br>

no cropping<br>

time to go looking for some bugs<br>

f16 1/60 sec ISO 100 SB400 flash handheld on ext cord</p><div></div>

Love shooting these birds in flight. Looking forward to another great week of pics. Hope all had a great holiday.<br /> Nikon D3, NIKON 80-400, 1/250 sec, 400MM, F/8, 320 ISO</p><div></div>

<p>Greetings from the depths of northern Ontario.<br>

The Environment Canada weather station says it's 0C just north of here. It's a balmy 7C and socked in with fog here at the lake.<br>

This is Harry being Harry. He's a great help gathering sticks and twigs.</p><div></div>

<p>The College Park Aviation Museum hosts a train club's modular layout (The Wright Brothers operated a flying school here where the Flyers paced locomotives on the adjacent tracks - hence the connection with trains). One of the model railroaders asked for a portrait of his new Empire State Express locomotive. The prototype was famous for speeds in excess of 100 MPH.</p><div></div>
