Well I gave it the old collage try tonight so to speak and seriously tried to take some Milky Way shots. These are the result as well as one zoom burst. Feel free to tell me they suck and I need to try harder. I can take it.:)

Here's 3 that I've taken at one time or an other in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Long one was taken during a full moon night in 2012 with a D5100. The other two were taken the same night I got my new D800E. It was a rainy night with low clouds and erie natural light. ​Not spectacular but night...

So to be truthful I haven't really tried to shoot stars. I love shooting at night but mostly for light painting and panoramas. The following shot was done during a full moon which is not ideal for stars at all but the D800E has such an amazing dynamic range that it managed to pick quite a few up...

Cameron Falls in Waterton Lakes UNESCO World Heritage site. Light only by the light of the full moon. ​

Autumn is my favourite time of year and then winter is when a lot of photographers I know go into hibernation. So I thought I'd start this share photo thread and see what happens maybe get some inspiration and share some if possible.:)

My second entry.

My first entry.

I am more and more amazed by how far THIS much resolution and a relative steady hand and sharp lens can go. The following picture was shot hand held on a D800E with a 70-300 VR F4.5-5.6 at 1/200 iso 100. The second one is the same only cropped 200%!!! While its not poster or calendar worthy it...

My turn. Cliche I know but it's wide. Nikon 16-35mm F4. What a sweet lens!! Lundbreck Falls.

Well, you're mostly right. I really really love the D800E!! I never thought a camera could be THIS good. It really redefines my previous limitations. The sky is the limit. The camera however DOES NOT have an "auto" mode! ;) These are all pure shots. Signed converted and shrunk to jpeg and thats...
