I was out walking the dog early this morning and noticed this icy branch not 50 feet from my front door. The image was extremely dark so I processed in Capture NX2, saved as a TIFF, imported into my LR catalog and then exported to JPEG while adding the frame and watermark. Nikon D300, Nikkor...

Thom Hogan has an interesting summary of the current Nikon lineup in his 1/26/11 entry on his website. If he is correct, and he is rarely far off, it should be an interesting year for Nikon users. From his site: D3100. Nikon's entry DSLR until late 2011 or more probably early...

So a month or so ago I asked for recommendations regarding Ireland for a honeymoon. After a lot of discussion with my bride-to-be, we purchased airline tickets for two weeks in Spain. Thanks to TripAdvisor and a snowy last week-end with lots of football (go Bears!), we've built an itinerary. But...

I have an inexpensive wired GPS for my D300. I bought it over a year ago for about 1/3 of the equivalent Nikon GP-1 using a Nikonians discount. It works well but I've never found a comfortable way of accounting for the cable. Since I like travel photography, I can't imagine not using a GPS...

My point and shoot is getting a little long in the tooth so I've been considering the Nikon P7000 or Canon G12. As I've been researching and trying to discover the reason behind the recent price drop on the P7000, I've found multiple sites reporting that Nikon will be introducing a mirrorless...

What a life this photographer lead. . . Philip Drell, World War II motion picture photographer, dies at age 91 - chicagotribune.com

Way off topic here but I'm looking into a two-week driving honeymoon in Ireland towards the end of May. Off course I'll be looking for photo opportunities (we've traveled a lot together already and she puts up with this crazy hobby of mine) but I was wondering if anyone had any input. I'm a...

Thanks for the comments Jack. It IS nice when what you see in your mind is what you capture. :) This shot was from a few minutes before the third one above and gives a wider perspective. The difference between the cloud cover and direct light is astounding.

Flying back from a trade show in Vegas last night. Had an empty row to myself, a window seat, my camera and sunset. First time trying this from an airplane. I'd love some feedback. All images taken with a D300 and Nikkor 17-55. Post in LR where frames were added.

Thanks Essence!! My old S60R was outright nasty. 0-60 in 5.3 and more torque than any other car I've ever had. I regularly trashed M5's. When insurance totaled it, Volvo wasn't making them anymore and I couldn't find a comparable one for the payout. :mad: My S80 is the T6 AWD version which...
