Even More Fun Pictures with Nikon

[Corlan F.]

Nice pano, Lloyd.
It'd be a treat to see the result when you'll shoot the same one in fall colors.

Another organic experiment. 40 layers later... it still needs work! What a blast though.

This one has a feel of "Mucha in the digital age"... Interesting.

lush lol, I love that place and just got that lens..

do you have to take off that metal AIS apparatus to attach it to the D700??

Hi Matt, what do you mean ?
Not sure i got that right, but just in case: the Zeiss 35/2 as all other ZF lenses directly mounts on the D700 (use or used the 21 / 35 / 50 /100). The 35 is a fantastic lens btw.

I will post a picture up I have the terminology wrong

Thanks. That is my plan.

Jorgen,

Nice shot.
Can you "enlighten" me on what temple this is?

Thanks,

Wayne

Jorgen, these slopes are indeed enlightening. Great composition.

Oh, and the green cabs seem more fun than their famous yellow counterparts...

Jorgen,

Wayne,
It's part of a temple complex along the road from Bangkok to Pattaya. This building is still under construction, and my guess is that it will take at least a year or two before it's finished. There was no activity there yesterday, so I guess they've run out of money for now. It's a very peculiar steel construction btw. Very modernistic, but the style seems to be inspired by Lao temples, but as opposed to those, it's blue, lilac and silver (Lao temples are mostly yellow, red and gold).

Arne, those D2X shots (post # 1012) are so good. Perfect product image. And a beautiful dreamy painting-like wallhanger.
Do you still have that great 'old APS-C monster machine' as well, from 'the long gone days of lower ISO' ?
I like its sparkling colours as well as the well exposed rendering of white in the food shot.

Thank you, Steen. Alas, the D2x is gone. Used within its limits (low-ISO and avoiding its abrupt highlight clipping) the files had subtle, exquisite colours and great presence. The latter probably due to a commendably weak AA-filter. I have wondered about rebuying this body...

Two more oldies from the D2x.

Those are wonderful shots. That flower just jumps off the screen. Best seen large to be fully appreciated.

 

[Lloyd]

Great stuff in general on here to day folks. One can miss a lot being away for a day or two.

 

[Lloyd]

Just ran across this one from last fall.

D300; 12-24 @ 14mm:

Nice image Lloyd!

Thank you. :salute:

That's a great one, Lloyd, I love the way the shadow leads you to the tree itself! Very nicely framed.

Cheers,

Thank you, Simon. Your opinion is much appreciated.

Lloyd, that is simply megacool! :toocool:
