    A walk in the park

    First of all, if I broke the rules with my post with too many images, apologies. And the moderators can delete this, I won't hold a grudge. I tried to watch what others do. Some put only one image per post, some put a few. Well, I think I have eight here. Some are scenics, some are people...

    Yongnuo 568 EX power test

    Yongnuo YN 568 EX power test Hi, my brother wanted a cheap flash, but he was overwhelmed by the numerous options in ebay. Most tests all over the interwebs show that all of these (Pixel King, Yongnuo, Wansen, Neewer, Alture, JJC, Meike, Sunpak, Sigma, whatnot, ...) provide the typical...

    Updating gear list... can't do it

    I try to add my new teleconverters TC-14E III and TC-20E III but the pop-up list that appears does not contain those and I can't add them. Same for AF-S VR Nikkor 400mm f/2.8G. I'm missing something really simple here, can someone help me out? Peter

    The Bronx Cheer

    withdrawn I must have overlooked some rules, since this was moved to another forum. Apologies. Unfortunately this other forum is not what I was looking for. *withdrawn*

    Kudos to Nikon Germany

    I have an antique Nikon D1X that got neglected and never got the firmware update. The update is possible only in service as this camera predates the user upgradeable modern cameras. Lately I have taken it out of naphtalene and I actually like using it. The biggest grief is the small buffer...

    A tribute to a friend.

    A dear friend of 31 years, a colleague, a wicked math geek and the most generous friend a man can ask for. I shot the last one yesterday, it took me quite a while to be able to approach this subject with a calm and analytic mind. These are part of my personal mourning process. I wish strength...

    365 project: Peter Forsell

    Okay, since several members began their own project at the beginning of August, I'll do the same. My theme will be my daily life, and to make it more challenging, I'll crop all my shots to 16:9 format. I try to find something that is significant to me, causing an emotion or bringing back...

    Flair with flare

    My daughter tried jumping on a trampoline for the very first time. I'm sure the look of these shots is not for everyone, but for me it conveys the exhilaration. We usually think that lens flare is bad. This time though the shots would have been same-o-same-o blah without it. Lens flare is bad...

    At playground again (snapshot #2)

    Here is a new attempt from yesterday. Two year olds are so viciously difficult to make stand still for more than a few seconds... not her problem though. :p Here my daughter is sipping her juice. Any hope with the picture? Link to larger: _P7F1786_220711 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! EDIT...

    My daughter at playground

    Hi, I'm new here and I thought I'd post a picture. This is my 2 yo daughter at playground, where I usually like to grab a few snapshots of her. I cropped it to 8x10 format. Any c&c welcome. The picture is larger than maximum allowed here, so I'll add a link below: _P7F0487_080711b | Flickr -...

    Hello from Finland

    Hello all, I just found this forum. Looks great. I think a short introduction is in order? My name is Peter and I live in Finland. I'm forty-something and been shooting photos a while now, always with a Nikon. I am a happy weekend snapper and here is a random selection of some of my pictures...
