Thank you! I was also partial to that... I was looking for birds and not havingh much luck when I looked down.. and this was born!

Ted, thank you so much for the comments!! That is something I was atrocious at a few months ago... Its been a lot of practice (and throwing away a lot) and seeing what others do here at Nikonites and also reading and learning from the critiques of everyones stuff.. The more I do, it seems the more I see...

I have felt that I have made progress (and my wife tells me) but when people like you indicate you can see I have progressed, it means a lot. I have the forum and all the great users to thank for that.. Still a lot to learn... but learn I shall!

Day 58 - 2/27/2013

Rain sleet snow, overcast gray, what a beutiful day in the Northeast..

Lets try some industrial...


Inside a machining center and cutting tools on a bench




A couple tools apart for Maintenance..




I sat in my truck at lunch... just raining away..
These shots are rain on the OUTSIDE of my window while
I am inside...






Anyway, thats my lousy weather day, I made something anyway! :tongue-new:

Amazing pictures pat. Like the others have said, your 'photographers eye' is steadily getting sharper

On another note I think your machinery close ups, smoke shots and water droplet pictures will greatly benefit from a macro lens...

Thanks for both the comments and the suggestions... A macro is likely in my future down the road..

Day 59 - Feb 28, 2013

Started the day with a couple industrial shots at work...

Inside an open molding press showing installed Mold.



No, it is NOT a Gatling Gun! It is a smaller press disassembled for
repair. You are seeing the barrel and the screw has been removed.




At lunch, caught some ducks at Horseshoe Pond.

I like the splashing duck.

At least the branch seemed to frame the splashing duck.

Day 60 - March 1st, 2013

Spotted the moon in my driveway on the way to work... pulled over party way in and tried to get a capture..
I think it came out decent...




Then, on the way home, I took a slight detour down Main Street Nashua.
I had see this one morning (in the dark) so I went back to capture the
mural on the side of a building.



Hope everyone has a great day and a great weekend.

Pat, I'm curious if you used a wide angle lens if the moon was in your driveway, that's pretty close.

Day 61 - March 2nd, 2013...


1st is early morning sun castings shadows across the snow... (right out my window)





I was playing around with some close up filters, I do not have a macro lens.




How small were the bushing and screw?? They both fit on a dime.
The bushing is overmolded into some of trhe parts we make so customers
can screw something into the threads (M4 Metric)



I have had some fun playing with the filters, come spring maybe I can find some insects to try..

Without the dime to show scale, I would have thought they were much larger. Nice shots.

 

[RockyNH_RIP]

Thanks Barbara.. I am anxious for wamer weather to try it on a bug!
