Nice shots from all of the above!

Some stuff... These are all shot with the old Micro Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 Auto nonAi and most of the shots are with the lens reversed using the BR2 ring and some extension tubes and rings. I'm stil very impressed with this battered lens. Exceptional colours and sharpness even with multiple extension rings (when reversed and no CA that I can see at 100%). Of course this is all helped by the resolving power and colour acuity of the D3X which I'm so darn pleased I got this rather than the D800. The images are converted on Phase One Capture 6 but no adjustments except bumping the highlights via levels to 244 if it's not there yet. Otherwise, it's SOOC. Cheers.

Here is my favorite shot of the day

Thanks! But like I mentioned, I only take advantage of the raw conversion and profiles from Phase One and the rest is perfected on the shoot. Cheers!

My three month-old grandson last weekend:

Great stuff as always Rey! I see you've picked up a D3X! May it last as long as your D1X has

I finally got my D2Xs back from repair. Used the still broken 17-55/2.8 on these. On the drive home from Bruce County. Terrible snow squalls, poor visibility for driving. But amazing landscapes, wish I had my tripod with me and more time

Love that shot Mark!! Made me smile!

Hey thanks Avi! Yes the D3X should be fine , I had just recently cleaned the sensor (again) with pure acetone and is sparkling clean once more... (Don't attempt the acetone cleaning if your not confident but yes, Nikon service centres use pure acetone to clean the sensors, without any harm to it). Cheers.
