Has anyone heard from Mike D90 lately. It been quite a while since he was on the forum. Hey @Mike D90 , stop by and say hello !!

We have 2 cyclones bearing down on our coastline, both due to hit land early tomorrow morning. Cyclone Lam in the Northern Territory, on the map Scott Murray lives at Jabiru, so not far from the action. Hopefully it won't do too much damage wherever it does end up hitting. I will be heading in...

After changing my mind a couple of times on this I have finally decided to jump in and join the fun. I will be setting my rules very loosely so I can complete this, my work keeps me on a tight rein. I will use the Nikonites list in random order, but I will have 10 substitute themes that I can...

While I was cooking Christmas lunch, I spotted this male Cosmophasis Micans Spider on the handrail of the verandah. He seemed to be doing a dance as he pranced up and down the handrail, it was difficult to keep him in the viewfinder as he was moving so quickly. I used my Yongnou EX568 flash...

I set up a comfy chair and the tripod in the backyard tonight and took some photos of the eclipse.

I am trying to display the pen in a setting to create appeal to the viewer. Please give me some critique, and tell me what I could have done better. (The pen barrel is a polymer clay artwork by Toni Ransfield.)

I got my new flash today, it was late afternoon by the time I got home to try it, so a bit rushed. ​My early tests look promising, I just used the little fold down diffuser on the front of the flash, it worked OK, but I think I will be able to do better with a proper diffuser. More tests are...

I came along a bit late for the main fight. But caught the end of it. The Hornet goes in for the kill. The Hornet steps back and staggers. The Hornet goes down. Has the Spider dealt the Hornet the death blow also ? The Hornet recovers and savours the spoils.

Does anyone have any experience with this lens ? I have the opportunity to pick one up off someone that doesn't need it anymore. I have read plenty of reviews online on various sites, most/all give it a good review. ​But,,,, I would really like to hear from someone who has this lens and uses...

Just noticed that they have produced a focusing screen for the D7100. I think one of these would be great for macro work. Nikon D7100 Focusing Screen ​

I followed a link and found this Guys site, he has some amazing photos. The gear he uses seems a bit unorthodox, but it sure seems to work for him. Macro Illustrated | Nature's Place

I have been culling my photos mercilessly in an effort to free up my internal hard drive on my iMac , but it is getting to the stage where I need to move them to an external HD. I am no computer guru, so I am a little unsure if I am doing this correctly. I have read where I need to create a...

A couple of weeks ago I noticed a couple of dust spots on a blue sky shot at f16. Yesterday I decided to get out my generic blower and see if they would move,,,, big mistake. I ended up with about a thousand spots, not sure if they came out of the blower, or they were dislodged from the mirror...

I was in Brisbane for a quick trip last week. I went for a walk around the city with my camera, here are some shots I took, in no particular order.

I was in Brisbane on wednesday to watch a football game, I had a couple of hours to spare in the afternoon. I walked the streets for a few blocks radius from my hotel looking for photo opportunities, I found this lovely old Cathedral.

My new 16-85 turned up today, tested it out while I had a quiet drink. ​
