Matt Laur Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Important: please keep your image under 1000 pixels on the longest side for in-line viewing, and please keep the FILE SIZE UNDER 300kb. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site (at Flickr, Photobucket, your own site, etc). Are you new to this thread? The general guidelines for these Wednesday threads are right here:http://www.photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00W7km. This forum's moderators are allowing up to three Nikon Wednesday images per week, so share some work! A bit of military aviation, this Nikon Wednesday. In an unusual opportunity, the Navy's Blue Angels, in their F18's, and the Air Force's Thunderbirds, flying F16's, made a dual-formation banking turn right over our house on Saturday. We were their next stop on their multi-city front-line COVID-19 worker honor tour. A shame they've had to cancel a great many traditional shows this year, but they still need the training flight hours and will do some much appreciated fly-overs all across the country instead. They were only over head for about 10 seconds, but it was a glorious sight (and sound!). Can't wait to get to a proper air show again one fine day. In the meantime, here's three of the very few frames I was able to catch. Let's hear it for 500mm, a big sensor, and a sunny day. And let's hear it for some other photos: share! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yardkat Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Adventures in orchids. D750+70-200 f4 with extension tubes. The first two are focus stacked. The second one was taken barely 12 hours later. (I'd love to try a time lapse of it opening but it happens overnight, so I'm not sure how I'd light it.) I just focus stacked the inside of the flower and I used a Helicon software trial which was much faster and more accurate than PS. The third one used Lensbaby Velvet 85 and a texture background. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Currie Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Finally getting around to looking at some of my pictures from the aborted March trip to Patagonia (which ended halfway through with a dash through the Straits of Magellan to the Falklands and eventual flight home) Here's "the lighthouse at the end of the world," at the bottom of Staten Island - a reproduction of the original, made famous by a Victor Hugo story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Currie Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 This stitched photo taken at the lighthouse of Cape Horn lacks resolution, but in the very center is the sculpture of an albatross, which, when you are at sea and line it up so you see the cut-out albatross, identifies when you are at the junction of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Garrard Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 My thoughts with you too, Mark. I'm still hurting from losing my second cat a couple of years ago, although sometime soon (when it's a little logistically easier) I need to find a way to welcome a new one. It takes a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
