<p>Wednesday greetings, everyone. Matt, nice Hawk shot. We have a Cooper's Hawk glide through from time to time, but I'm never fast enough! Here's a view from my reading room window as the moon set between tree branches in our back yard yesterday morning. It was quite hazy, but actually might have worked for the shot.</p><div></div>

<p>Another one using the 85mm/f1.4 AF-S, wide open at 1.4 on the D800E, 1/80 sec and ISO 1600.<br>

In the background, there is a window, and you can see the blurred tail lights from cars outside.</p><div></div>

<p>The Nikon non-AI 55mm f1.2 lens isn't supposed to be sharp wide open, is it?</p><div></div>

<p>Battersea Power Station London you may recognise it from the Pink Floyd album Animals from 1976. Just down the road from where I went to school too. Uploaded wrong crop, never mind.</p>

<p>We put our border collie to work posing for a Christmas card. He was a trooper, even when I made him stay while I tested different settings for the speedlights. </p><div></div>

<p>This past Fall I took a trip to Yellowstone National Park, with the intention of shooting hand-held from the seat of my kayak. I purchased a used lens for the trip: an AFS Nikkor 18-55mm DX VR. With one hand on the paddle to keep my position in the current, it's a tricky lens to use with a polarizer, as the lens barrel rotates with focusing. The skies were dull grey from the extensive fires in the region, so I eliminated the sky from my shots. The Lewis River Channel and Lewis Lake are also home to a variety of birds. These photos are from the Lewis River Channel, a personal favorite place. Nikon D80, 18-55mm DX VR, polarizer.</p><div></div>
