The New and Improved Fun with Nikon Images!

...the way we saw it...

We sent to see an exhibition. Open air. It was a superb exhibition of Art and Science.

The exhibits covered a big area of the park. We got tired. We sat down to realx and think...

We thought and we walked...we ended up at a lake...

They say it has a very big water jet..

Beautiful Color & Composition's Rayyan!

The more I realize how privileged we are, living this close to the woods, the more obsessed I get with tracks - all their moods and changing light. And so hard to catch.

Steve: Thank you dear friend. Thank you very much.

Switzerland...the way saw it...

We stayed in Mountain Villages...

We Crossed their Mountains...

We camped in Alpine Cabins for the night...

We stayed in their Towns...

We loved every second of it.

Thank you for being with us.

Wow. More gorgeous photos Rayyan. The light is fantastic on this set, depth's amazing in the mountains shots, and colors sumptuous in the last one. That Switzerland trip was quite a journey... how long was your stay over there?

Gloriously Stunning C!!!:thumbs:

Thanks Steve
(ok i'll have to do it myself... i hope one can "Feel the wHeat")

+1 These really are sensational, Rayyan.

Other times, we would find a sidewalk place...

Love the treatment. Very painterly. These and the rest of the shots from Switzerland are fantastic.

On the road traveling, so I only have limited access to the Internet. Great stuff lately everyone. Alex, Leif, Rayyan, Corlan, Jason, fantastic stuff. You guys are constant inspiration.

Sometimes we would sit in a park and have our sandwiches...

Green Wheat:

Not everything was green, though:

D3X 105VR @2.8 no crop (and no pun intended )

Corlan: These are INCREDIBLE! The first draws you into that macro world. So detailed. The second's a brilliant composition and use of DOF. "Painterly" in the best way. And no wussy cropping! :thumbup:

Cheers, Matt

...Me, I tried to offer this busybody bumblebee a seat for aesthetical reasons. Arrogant rascal went on buzzing.

Leif: Nice images. I particularly like the dark, dense, B&W PP of the trail photos. Sort of draw you in like a black hole. Cheers, Matt

Corian: I am truly thankful for your encouragement. I have been going
to Switzerland on and off for the past from the late nineties. Work related
mostly. But more on vacation for the past 6/7 years.

The Nikon pictures, some of them, are with the D70s
The M pics are obviously more recent from around march 2007.

+1 These really are sensational, Rayyan.

Love the treatment. Very painterly. These and the rest of the shots from Switzerland are fantastic.

Lloyd: Appreciate your kind words my friend. As I said in the M thread, drive safe, stay safe.

Best regards to the both of you.

Hola senor Matt. HOOLA! You make Seattle so near for me my friend. And
following the Solistice Parade through your eyes has been...how do I say it..well...HOLA SENOR MATT.

I dare not think where you were for the framing of some of these Sun celebrations? More sun to you my friend.:thumbs:

 

[otumay]

Osman: Thanks. When do we see pictures from your vacation?

Very soon, Rayyan, thank you for remembering. They will be posted on the Leica forum, though

Matt, Rayyan put it very well; Seattle has become a very familiar and joyful place for me.
