Hello good people of Nikonites. I hope you have all had a great New Years eve. I'm back for another go. I have been away from the forum for a year, with a few drop bys. But now I am back again to complete my second 365 challenge. This is going to be a blast! But with no further ado, let's get...

Hey you all :) I've been gone for a while, but hope to be back now and then, to post a few macro shots. Wasn't sure where to put this thread, so if it should have been in the macro forum, feel free to move it, admins :) Today's photo is one I've been hunting for a while. These spiders are so...

Hello ya'll. I have this gift certificate from a 365 that I want to swapp for some nice gear ;D What I have in mind is a small bag for carrying on the chest along with a backpack, for instance for hiking. It's important to me to be able to access the camera and preferably an extra lens or two...

Okay this is probably a question with a really easy answer. When I first installed PS, when I turned the scroll wheel with the paint brush selected the size of the brush changed accordingly. Somehow I've got that changed, so now I scoll up and down the picture instead. I've tried to find a...

I'm getting my Micro Nikkor 85 tomorrow, and am contemplating what to use as my light source for close ups. While I have my eye on a cheap LED ring light that gets great reviews, I also think about building a DIY flash diffuser for my SP-24, or possibly just juse Scott Murray's foam diffuser...

I went by this place, which has a huge collection of bronze age petrolyphs, and thought I wanted to share :) You'll see lots of ships and sun symbols, and also a foot of a god, showing godly presens. DSC_8994 by jonas_sandager, on Flickr DSC_8996 by jonas_sandager, on Flickr DSC_8996 by...

I wasn't sure if this was the thread to put this in, as I will have to sneak in a couple of photos that aren't exactly landscape photos, but here goes. My wife and I went for a late honeymoon in Norway, in the Stavanger area, and I naturally brought my camera. The following is some of the...

Okay, so the situation is that I have come by some cash that I can use for equipment. Not a lot, so I need to make the best of it. I have wanted both a macro and a wide angle for some time now, and now have the option to buy one or both. What I have in front of me is either a used micro Nikkor...

Hello all :) I have found a good offer for a Micro nikkor 85 AF-S, and am thinking about finally getting a macro lens. So what I would like to hear from you, is if there are anyone that have experience with this lens or has some other informed opinion? :) I am aware that the rather slow f/3.5...

So, having passed the half way point of the 365 projects, I feel it could be nice to try and find out who exactly are still hanging in there, and are going for the full 365 days. I myself am beginning to notice the gruelling pressure of the daily photo, and thus would like to know which threads...

Hello y'all. I'm not sure if it's okay to post a thread like this, as I haven't been able to find any like it, but I figure that as the forum is under 'Learning photography', it could be relevant to have threads that follow the progress. My idea is to post some photos through my development in...

Hello all of you. This is the first time I have put up a photo for evaluation, but as I kinda like this one, I'm curious to hear what you guys think of it, and most importantly what you would have done differently :) I pass by these houses quite often and have had the composition in mind for...

Hello. When I share photos on this page that are hosted from Flickr, it appears that the recognition of EXIF data is very inconsistent. I can't tell if the problem arises from this site, from Flickr or from my own hand before uploading. My routine is shoot with d3100 -> Aftershot pro RAW...

Hello Nikonites. I've been contemplating having my own 365 for some time, as this just seems like an awesome way to force oneself to improve and think creatively. So HERE WE GO! :) I will have to warn you before we start, that this 365 will probably contain a load of aquarium shots as well as a...

Hey guys. I'm really interested in learning to shoot some great macro shots. I just really like the new perspective you get from looking at stuff up close :) So far I have burrowed an old micro nikkor 55 mm f/2.8, and plan on buying the older version of the same lens, as I'm not able to put in...

Hey. Today, after messing a bit with a reverse macro ring, I noticed some dirt on my viewfinder. Just a little black dot. It doesn't show up in the photos or on the LCD, so I'm assuming it's on the mirror or the focus screen. I've tried blowing the dirt of with a rocket blower and have wiped the...

A few weeks back I went out and myself a Nikon d3100 along with two zoom lenses, and boy have I enjoyed it since. I've actually liked taking photos most of my life, and remember when I was a kid, But now, things have finally got into place to let me gat a DSLR. I've only just started taking in...
