OK, it's about time I put my humble contribution in ... totally different subjects, but equally fun.

I broke out my 18 year old 35-70mm 3.3-4.5 kit lens to play around with on my D70s. Surprisingly, it wasn't completely horrible.

Here are a few trying out my new macro lens on a cloudy overcast afternoon in my girlfriends conservatory:

Kurt the separation you have in that image is absolutely unbelievable... almost 3D. Would love to see more action shots with that kind of technical wizardry to them...

I called you Jimmy before - sorry.

It's lovely on the D3 isn't it - just about perfect. I think the Beta 2 is superb as well, and it's pulling me away from Aperture.

Some from today - same settings and location but quite different light today

And here's me - taken by Steve (the photo above, a 5D shooter and very decent photographer)

I did a shot like these women. I was threatened with SEVERE bodily injury if the photo was ever seen again. Women do NOT like pores, nose hairs, mustache hairs, or stray eyebrows or eyelashes showing in pix of them.

I do, somewhere, I know I have one of him standing on his back paws and begging

Not the greatest shot, but there is a measuring tape to judge him with

Thanks very much for the comments DJ and Waterflyboy. They're very much appreciated. I've spent the past several years shooting manual focus only before picking up the D3. Therefore, I've found I've become very much more deliberate in how and what I'm shooting.

Here's one more with a slightly different take on the same type of scene.

S3 with Nikkor 18-200. Zoom creep drove me up the wall, but the image quality is very nice

Greetings All!

I've been watching and enjoying this thread for months and I'm still amazed by the quality of images posted here. I became a Nikon shooter a few months ago and I'm finally making my first post here. This is our local water tower that I pass every day to get to work. I had to stand in the back of my truck on some equipment to eliminate most of the building. It was around 15 degrees (F) outside.

Shot with my D40X and 55-200 AF-S VR (VR helped with my cold hands!). PP in Capture NX.

Thanks for Looking,

Matt

I like that image, Matt. Rather surrealistic. Gotta love VR, eh?!

Thanks Gaylon. Between the unsteady footing and the cold, I definitely appreciated the VR. The colors are a little more saturated then they were in real life, but the purple to orange gradient was a nice sight to see on my way to work!
