<p>Youth gone by. Gravity. Too many multi-hour tasks handled in front of a computer. Never enough sleep. It all starts to catch up! So there's now a strict new presence in the house. I'll be spinning my wheels, but in a good way.<br /><br />So welcome to another Nikon Wednesday. Shot any necessary evils lately? Share some photos!<br>

<p>Went for a beachwalk Sunday - quite warm and humid for the South Coast - courtesy of remnants of Hurricane/Tropical Storm Dolores. We even got rained on (just a little). I had hoped for some nice sunset - but the cloud cover became thicker and thicker by the minute. </p>

<p>Dieter - lovely atmospheric shots.<br>

Yesterday, to Cwm Idwal in the rain (for atmosphere, too!). Trying to see in monochrome. </p><div></div>

[johnfarrar]

<p>and for some colour - an old shot, reprocessed, of a sunset. Llynnau Mymbyr.</p><div></div>

<p>Last Sunday went to a wonderful airfield called Old Warden where the Shuttleworth Collection of vintage aircraft are housed. It was an evening display and by the time the aircraft had finished flying it was well into the night. The light coming from the hangers as the aircraft were being put away fascinated me and these are three of the resulting shots.</p>

<p>The Comet racer, won the 1934 England - Australia air race, and here is she is today fully restored and flying, now being gently put away for the night.<br>

<p>Dieter and John, you set the mark really high, right out of the gate today. Beautiful tonal work and composition! We did a canyon horse-drawn wagon tour in the Wisconsin Dells, last weekend. I blew out the highlights beyond repair in this high contrast scene, but it brings a good memory.</p><div></div>

<p>"what are you photographing"<br>

"the concert"<br>

"we would need a photo for our weddinginvitations, how about we go to the toilet and take a shot"<br>

"alright, i insist on getting one of those"<br>

<p>I guess you could consider this as a long ago necessary evil. <br>

A company of Union Soldiers encamped in our local city park in Ashland, Oh. this weekend. </p>

<div></div>

[User_2019667]

<p>Why even the President himself showed up.</p>

[User_2019667]

<p>Whoops, a power outage. That is an unnecessary evil. </p><div></div>

[Jon Eckman]

<p>Petey probably thinks it's evil every time I tell him to get off the counter, but it is necessary -</p><div></div>

[DawsonPointers]

<p>There's a lot of stuff out about the movie 'Ant Man'. <em><strong>Man?</strong></em><br>

Perhaps someone was reading comic books rather than paying attention in biology class.<br>

Anyway, here are 3 shots of garden ladies.<br>

First, ants. </p><div></div>

[DawsonPointers]

<p>Second, a bumble bee.</p><div></div>

[DawsonPointers]

<p>And lastly, a Candy Stripe spider</p><div></div>

[Rick Helmke]

<p>Tough day at the track.</p><div></div>

[Matthew Currie]

<p>Still going through some stuff from California a couple of weeks ago. I could have spent all day just at the Monterey aquarium. </p><div></div>

[Matthew Currie]

<p>Jellyfish are fun to watch</p><div></div>

[Matthew Currie]

<p>Walking along the Big Sur coast, where the scenery is grand, but somehow I always find myself looking for little stuff.</p><div></div>

<p>A visit to Portland, Maine with my new D7200. This is the fence next to the Portland Lobster Company.</p><div></div>
