<p>In the office, we celebrated Oktoberfest last week, and some of the snacks looked very appealing.</p>

<p>I know food photography is not easy. I had no studio setting. This is from a D700 with the 60mm/f2.8 AF-S Micro on and bouncing an SB-900 off a white ceiling. I stopped the lens down to f11 for depth of field @ 1/125 sec and ISO 200.</p><div></div>

<p>Walking around I found this flower of zucchini (at least if Google translator is right), hanging from a wall and backlit by the sun.<br>

<p>In the last few weeks, I've spent hours sorting through and editing gymnastics pictures for my son's team's website. Yesterday, I needed a break, so I grabbed my camera as I left to do errands. I spotted these morning glories growing along a fence surrounding a deserted building.</p>

<p>Simon Jenkins: I love the processing on your sailboat photograph. It feels very peaceful.</p><div></div>

[wmervine]

<p>Greetings all. Not been out much but did get to a local computer gaming expo. Sadly I was there on the wrong day to see the cosplay competition, but this helpful gent was obliging.<br>

Have a great week all.</p><div></div>

<p>Hi Everyone,<br /> Interesting and beautiful shots as always. Here's a butterfly I chased all over the garden a few days ago; hat's off to all the great macro shooters--it's more difficult than I had imagined, but lotsa fun.<br /> Jim</p><div></div>

[rsands]

<p>Bill, I have to follow your lead. This is the best thing I've come up with this week. Maybe the same butterfly form a different angle...........</p>

<p>Hi all! Excellent shots, as always, from everyone!</p>

<p>I decided to post another slightly experimental shot (or rather edit) from my sister's wedding. I normally don't do this extreme edits, but for this shot I made an exception - and found myself liking it quite a lot. Oh, and thanks to John DiLeo for your kind words on last week's thread!</p>

<p>Here`s mine, shot four nights ago. I have waited for over six years to get to see norhern lights again. Finally it happened and luckily I had a chance to shoot some images at that time.</p><div></div>

Last Butterfly of Summer

The sun was finally shinning, so I went out to the garden to see if there was anything left of summer to photograph. I came across this monarch on the last flower that was left on my butterfly bush. I felt that it is the last butterfly I'll see until next summer.

<p>My first contribution to this thread. A lot of patience for this shot. Best regards from Italy, Antonio<br>
