    A Couple of Airplane shots....

    How is this? :) Maybe, 15 feet away. Enough so I could focus. Hand held. This grass hopper flew on my daughters arm. She loves bugs and held her arm up so I could take the picture. Maybe, 12% crop. 300 + 1.4 = 420mm :) What do you think?

    A Couple of Airplane shots....

    I don't see a lot of images posted from guys with D800's. What's up? Is this the forum to post them in or should I be looking at another part of Nikonites? Caught these two images today while I was down by the lake. The Canadian National Exhibition is on and there is an air show every day...

    Uploading an image in Your Gallery

    I have noticed that after you post an image into your gallery, you go to a Gallery View of your own images where you see a slide show and a side bar with more of your images. Curious why there is no link on this page to UPLOAD another image. You would think, this would be a natural page to...

    Early morning D800 Images

    I captured these images down by the lake, very early in the morning. I was testing taking images manually and trying to learn how to properly read and use the Histogram. Happy to hear what you think. The Black Crowned Night Heron was one of the last images before I left. You can see...

    Nikon 500mm f8 Mirror Reflex Lens + others

    Here is a better moon shot! This is with my 500mm and my Nikon 2x, TC 200 Teleconverter! This image is also taken with my Nikon D90: I mounted the lens on my tripod, used the mirror up feature, put it on remote and fired the shot. Focusing was done in Live View, it is the only way to do it...

    Nikon 500mm f8 Mirror Reflex Lens + others

    I have had a Nikon Mirror Reflex lens for a couple of years or less. I won some money in Las Vegas and picked one up with the winnings. I am still trying to figure it out. I believe this lens has excellent potential and is great value for the money but it is nothing compare to a standard, prime...

    MACRO - should have its own Forum/Folder

    I would suggest having a folder/forum dedicated to Macro Photography. It is a high interest area and the discussions and images should all be located in one spot for enthusiasts. Food for thought. :tennis: A couple of MACRO images for you to enjoy.

    D700 v D800

    The D800 is the darling of photography right now. Nikon still can't keep them in stock in local stores. Why? It takes a KILLER IMAGE! However, I do not believe it is a sports camera. It could be I haven't learned how to completely use it yet, but I don't find it has the fps rate or the...

    Nikon D800 + Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR, best combo

    Sorry folks, if this is the wrong place to open a Macro folder, can't find one on the site. I have been playing with my D800 and my 105 and I am starting to love this combo. The images the two produce are amazing. I took this image on my deck. The fly seemed to like this flower and kept...

    Post your fog shots

    Neal, Cool, happy it inspired this folder!! So, I will add one more. For some reason, I just remembered I took this one too on one of those rare foggy days and I like it as well. I was at Col. Samuel Smith Park and you could see the mist coming in. This was all done at the spur of the...

    macro lense advice please

    I have the Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR. Killer lens. I can't recommend this enough. If you can, get a used one from Criag's List or something similar., you can save some money used. You can use if for macro or for portraits, it is crystal clear and has amazing performance. This lens is by and large my...
