Nice. That's what I'm talkin' about. :thumbup:An older flower shot, but a favorite:

Very Nice!!!:thumbs:I haven't posted many Nikon shots, but I do shoot the D3/D700 a great deal at weddings ... so here's one using the 200/2VR .... I LOVE this lens!
This is really nice. I still kick myself for selling that lens.:angry: At least I used the $$ to buy some sweet Leica glass.I haven't posted many Nikon shots, but I do shoot the D3/D700 a great deal at weddings ... so here's one using the 200/2VR .... I LOVE this lens!
D700 @ ISO 2000 1/160th shutter, 200/2VR @ f/2. (I added the touch of vignetting in PS)
These are impressive, and this last one is AMAZING!!:bugeyes::bugeyes:Some night shots from Skaftafell national park. Probably the darkest place I have ever been...good thing I had a D3, tripod and cable release!
First one is from Jökulsárlón, an iceberg lagoon, though the aurora was over the parking lot...heh. Sometimes you have to take what you can get.
These were up on a DARK mountain trail. No one around for ages. At the hotel it was me, the manager, the cook, and two guys from the Netherlands. The closest town is one direction is 72 miles and has 160 people, the other direction has a town about 75 miles away with a population of 1800. At this time of year there is basically no one around, which is fantastic...a little freaky when you have a several hundred foot drop below you onto a glacier, the trail is pitch black and you are alone.
Exposure data is:
1. f/4, ISO 2500, 2 minutes.
2. f/2.8, ISO 2000, 4.5 minutes
3. f/2.8, ISO 2000, 4.5 minutes
4. f/2.8, ISO 12,800, 30 seconds
5. f/2, ISO 12,800, 30 seconds
These aren't really the greatest to be honest -- the aurora was very faint, and I did not want to follow the trail too far as it was very precarious, lots of wet, loose rock, pitch black, totally alone, carrying a lot of gear and so on. I felt I would be pushing my luck if I hiked any further. Hopefully next time I get a chance to go, I will have a parter, more aurora and maybe more time!
Marc,Thanks all ... the 200/2VR has become much more viable since getting a Kirk handle for it.
Cindy, my Voightlander 180/4 will come out of it's winter slumber soon ... that lens makes me smile because I associate it with summer shooting ... usually on Vacations. Your photo reminded me of that Also reminded me that I need to find a lens hood for it.
Very nice. Love the reflection. One with a similar effect: D300 50/1,4On the bus from work today ...
