Even More Fun Pictures with Nikon

[AlexLF]

Here's a snapshot, so take it for what it is. I was having lunch with a new "old friend" (as our friend Andree would have put it), and as we had nothing to do for the next couple of hours, she asked if we could go to see the tigers and crocodiles at Sriracha Tiger Zoo, so off we went. The lighting at the tiger show is awful (coloured stage lighting combined with open fire), and everything has to be shot through a fence, with around 0.5 second for preparations for each new scene. The guys behind the fence work fast.

D80 with 85mm f/1.8 @ f/2.5 and 1/250s

That's The Moment! Nice shot!

Lloyd/Jorgen/Routlaw,

Thanks. It was processed in Lightroom, to Nik Color Efex Pro 3.0 (tonal contrast), back to Lightroom, then to Nik Silver Efex Pro, and back to Lightroom. The Lightroom adjustment brush was used to darken the snow/fish area a bit. Cheers.

Amazing catch, Jorgen. Well done!

And here's the "old friend"

Taken in direct sunlight, with the old 70-300 ED. That lens is amazingly sharp up to around 150mm.

Sharp indeed. Nice portrait... both versions.

Very cool. Nice self portrait... of both of you.

Interesting, that it's just the one. Nice.

Capture One v 5 is very nice to my Nikon files. Here's a sample:

 

[Jorgen Udvang]

Very cool as usual, Matt, but your car has lost a wheel

Corlan, that's a perfect "design".

Capture One v 5 is very nice to my Nikon files.

I agree. Your post couldn't be more timely, as I was experimenting pp with C1 v4.8.3 on D2x files and was about to reach the same conclusion.
Your photos are beautiful, 'Little Isabela' and 'World beyond a book' being my favorites.

Best,
Osman
