<p>Well, another week of impressive shots. <br />Matt, nice truck!<br />Bob, great shot. <br />Rick, fantastic, right place right time! <br />John Rowsell, he’s grown into a lovely dog, nice shots.<br />Peter, WHOA! <br />Lorne, nice crisp shot.<br />Bill, looks like the Cat’s been having some Wild seed, that expression!<br />Roberta Davidson, There are brown Pelicans here, still to get a good shot, they come around late evening, light is falling of something terrible by then.<br />Emilio Gutierrez, creative, I like!<br />Jeannean, think you just set the benchmark for the Seasons Black necked Stilt photo's. There are some on a Pond here, will need to keep an eye on. <br />Sure as Fate I get a decent shot to use and it's the hot favourite for the week. So here's another Osprey. I'll try for the Green Heron next week?<br />This Osprey has become a regular around the barge, using the Mooring lines as Perch, Roost, Observation point & Dinner Table. Got every shot except Hunting! (Even some shaky Video...aren't DSLR's wonderful bits of kit?)<br>

<strong>D5100 (50-500mm f/4-6.3G) 500mm, f/6.3 @ 1/1000s, ISO 320</strong></p><div></div>

<p>Went to Rome for the weekend with a F4 and 35/2AF and some cheap film.<br />Tight framing and even tighter scanning form the photolab... cut some corners unfortunately...</p><div></div>

<p>Have enjoyed the new Wednesday photos, so many "likes".<br>

Rick Moran's osprey shot was impressive. To the bird: my what huge talons you have!<br>

John Roswell's pups, I recall seeing the pups in earlier posts. At first glimpse, I thought the pups were kits, fox. Then I looked closer and noticed their short legs. Bet they had a fun time in the snow.<br>

Was in Hopkinsville, KY early in the afternoon and took this picture of the old train station downtown on the old L&N railroad. Used D2H and 55 micro.</p>

<p>Trying to get at least some detail in the external through-the windows scenery while also mixing up interior 12v lighting and a bit of bounced fill flash . . .</p>

</blockquote>

<p>Excellent job on the luxury truck, Matt!</p>

<p>One more image from the Indian Wells tennis tournament this year. I was there exactly a week ago. The tournament is over today, and Maria Sharapova turns out to be the women's champion.</p>

<p>still using the D800E with the 300mm/f2.8 AF-S + TC-14E, 1/1250 sec and ISO 160. The lens was wide open at f2.8 for an effective f4 with the 1.4x TC.</p><div></div>
