Important notice: please keep your pics under 700 pixels width for inline posting and even more important, please keep the FILE SIZES UNDER 300Kb. Notice that this includes photos hosted off-site (Flickr, Photobucket, others). As a reference, notice that my pic is near 100Kb.
The general guidelines for this WedNEsDAy PiC threads, are here.
Hello! My pic for today was taken weeks ago in a somewhat odd local "esoteric" fair, temporarily located on a railway station (!). There was a stand selling this "beauties"; after shooting them with my camera, the seller appeared and told me that they are made with the finest porcelain and loaded with some kind of "negative energy repellent". Like a famous bullfighter said once, "... hay gente pa tò... " ("... there must be people for everything!").
Taken with a D700 @1600 ISO, 14bit RAW, 24-85AFS. I will post later the settings (I forgot to write the settings on the post-it!) :P
Please post if you like your favourite Nikon pic as usual... Thank you all.

Shore Road Artist
A lot of folks who don’t live in NY are always surprised when I come up with a lot of water front photos taken in the Bronx. Large portions of the Bronx boarder on the Long Island Sound and other sections on the East and Harlem Rivers. Pelham bay Park in the Northeast Bronx sits right on the sound. Orchard Beach, Rodman’s Neck, City Island and Pelham Bay are all part of the park.
Sunday past was a gorgeous day. I took a ride up Shore Road and stopped at the Orchard Beach Lagoon. Found this guy working on a painting. This worked out better than just another landscape shot. This was had a little bit of difficulty as the scene was very bright and he was standing in a strong shadow..

HAHAHA! Jose, thats horrible! :-)
Well due to a mild spell this last week the snow and frost have now gone, so no winter theme from me this time. Instead I thought I’d do something I haven’t done in a while and make a subtle HDR image. This shot is taken with the 70-300 VR @ 78mm, f5.6, ISO 200 and shutter speeds between 1/15 and ½s. I used Mup on a sturdy tripod. Processed and merged in CS4.

Good morning!
A couple of weekends ago we went on a trekking in a neaby mountain. It started early in the morning, and this was one of the first pictures I took.
D700 and Series E 28mm f/2.8 @ f/11 (I think).
Best Regards!
Pedro.

Good Morning!
This weeks shot is one of my dogs, Spirit, a 6 year old tri-color Welch Corgi. I managed to catch him watching me holding my 300 f/4 on a monopod. Our other Corgi, Linux, is more camera shy and not as photogenic, even with a long lens.

I took the following one in a traditional restaurant in the Spanish city of Valladolid (circa 350,000 ha). The restaurant is built underground, so it’s fresh in summer and only requires a bit of energy in the cold winters of central Spain. By the way, this restaurant cooks one of the best based lamb dishes in the country.

This photo was actually taken weeks ago. It is a shot from the council houses in Gibraltar that are in front of the teleferique for the Rock.

Hello everybody
This was taken last week while visiting Iguazu Falls Argentine National Park.
Iguazu River was carrying more than seven times the normal amount of water at that time. That made more interesting the visit, but was bad for making photos. Too much spray and fog.

Wednesday yet again. :-) The fun day of the week if you ask me. :-)
Went out with friends Sunday & we're all wondering where the birds have gone off to. Very little action.
I did however spot this Snowy Egret (sorry for repeating my subject) which was exhibiting a rather unusual behavior. It was fishing by blowing bubbles into the water. Now, my photo can not fully describe how this bird went at this for almost 10 minutes. I had no idea about this fishing method, but was told by another photographer. I hope you will enjoy. Photo chosen due to the intent in the bird's eye & the beautiful circular ripples in the water (to me).
