    Post your latest purchases.

    I give @Bill16 too much of a hard time regarding GAS lately, and he shouldn't have all the fun. I went the opposite route from his 80-400mm and decided to give this guy a try.

    Hello from South Korea (US Service Member) moving to VA

    Howdy and welcome to Nikonites! Don't worry if you have too much gear, @Bill16 does a pretty good job of working out deals to buy everyone's excess gear, so it'll get sorted out shortly. :) Thanks for your service and hope your trip back stateside is quick and uneventful!

    Post photos of your darkrooms!

    The girlfriend I had back in the 90's that first introduced me to photography had taken over the guest bathroom of my apartment and turned it into her darkroom for processing b&w photos. Now, this is what I'm doing my development on these days... :)

    Post your fences - gates

    I thought the fences in Santa Fe NM were pretty unique... (my wife actually composed that shot, so I can't take any credit for it other than bringing the camera along)

    Post your flower pics

    A few pictures from our trip to Santa Fe NM last weekend... Sadly, I don't know the names of either of these types of flowers.

    Bringing Back the Weekly Challenge

    Great idea! Like @Eyelight, I don't think I'm "long standing", but add me to the rotation down the road if one of the volunteers needs to rotate out and you need people to backfill.

    1st time using LR

    I'm seeing different gradients in the sky, but I'm thinking it's artifacts from editing a jpeg in LR and then saving again. It feels over-exposed, or HDR'ed like @kluisi mentioned, but I'm pretty novice here with LR too. My preference has been to shoot RAW, but I'll also shoot RAW+JPG at times...

    General Composition

    Thanks @singlerosa! I was aware of the blending with image #2, but thought maybe I had gotten enough light to pull it off. I also wasn't digging the rope around the base to keep people off the sculpture, but I couldn't find a way to get the shot without that there. I don't know if a flash would...

    RocketCowboy's D5300 Pics

    Today's installment from the previous weekend... Changing things up a bit, I found myself walking with just the 55-300 kit lens mounted. I was trying to get some bird pics, but these were the best I could salvage from the day.

    General Composition

    Not sure this is the best sub-forum, so no worries if this thread needs to be moved somewhere else. These pictures weren't taken with my Nikon, so just looking more for composition input/feedback/suggestions than anything. These were taken with my iPhone, but I figure when the urge strikes, use...
