<p>I saw something that I would not necessarily want on me -</p><div></div>

<p>Matt - nice capture, the peak of action so to speak!<br>

Bogdan - always love your street shots from exotic, far-away Istanbul.<br>

Panayotis Papadopoulos - is that the hound of the Baskervilles? I love the how the dog adds scale, nice shot.</p>

<p>For me, non-exotic and not very far away this time. The old capitol on a sunny, windy day.</p><div></div>

<p>Been enjoying watching the many beautiful birds and ducks in a pond by my house. This Ibis doesn't understand why the wood ducks don't want to play with him. Nikon D3X, Nikon 300 2.8, F/6.3, 1/160 sec, ISO 400</p><div></div>

<p>I've enjoyed looking at the images on this forum for over a year. This is my first attempt at contributing some of my own Nikon photos - these were taken on a recent humanitarian mission to rural parts of Honduras.</p>

<p>Our County Arts Council hosted a show for a young artist workshop where local professional wildlife artists provided instruction and subject matter for the student's paintings. Jonathan Shaw, a falconer as well as an accomplished artist, brought in one of his "models". When I first saw the falcon on the stand, I thought it was a still life (motionless) but Jon soon had the falcon posing for pictures with the artist and her work.</p><div></div>

<p>Matt, can't help but smile at your shot. Great capture!<br /> Was out trying to find subjects to test my 500mm , as it just came back from Nikon after some repairs. The only subjects I could find were the little ones. So, the 500mm does macro.<br>

<p>A skimmer flying over some shore birds on a lagoon. It demonistrates how great the D7100's auto focus is, with 600mm lens at f5.0, 1/2000, and ISO 320.</p><div></div>

<p>Taken in the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens in NY about two weeks ago.</p><div></div>

<p>After growing Mammoth sunflowers for stock pictures, I printed one & kept it on desk at work. A lady bug attached to picture & literally became a part of it.</p><div></div>

<p>First time posting to Nikon Wednesday! This is one of my food photos from a class I took last fall. I wanted to do something simple and graphic.</p><div></div>

<p>Good Wednesday Everyone, Ron, welcome to Nikon Wednesday; what a beautiful initial contribution! Earlier in the week, I came out of our local grocery to find this young woman relaxing on the hood of her car. I asked to photograph her, and she gave the slightest affirmative nod. I managed to get three quick shots before thanking her and leaving--she never spoke a word throughout. I had been shooting inside the store and didn't have time to change the camera settings, so I used the indoor settings.</p><div></div>

[Nickens]

<p>I found an image in a photo book and decided to try my hand at duplicating it. Nice shots this week as always.</p><div></div>

<p>I've been playing with some different lighting for still life shots. </p>

<p>First, a high key iris.</p>

<p>I like the colors of these Poplar flowers but because they are in the tops of the tree I only get to see them once they've fallen.</p><div></div>
