Hello Nikonistas, and a good mid-winter Nikon Wednesday to you. Here in the US, we've just had one of peculiar local holidays (the Super Bowl, which is a food preparation event that includes, also, some televised sporting activity and very expensive commercials). I've attached a quick shot of the chili we made for the occasion. Our poor dinner guests had to avert their eyes as I set up a slaved SB800 across the table for some short lighting. But such is serving food to a photographer!
Used your Nikon gear to shoot anything cultural, spicey, sports-related, or fattening? Share a photo!

Woops. Here's that chili. It was NOT made of squirrel.

Goodmorning Nikonians! Happy Wednesday to you all. Thank you very much to those who commented on my picture last week. It was much appreciated. It made the Wednesday even better.
(My favorites from last week were the pictures from Matt Laur, Jonathan Parkhouse, John Farrar, Michail Tsypkin, Tanay Bhattacharya, Gej Jones and “the winner” Tom Mann with his magnificent abstract work. I wish I knew how to add elements to a picture to make art like that.)
My picture this week was taken last night. The lake is about to freeze, and the ice was making some very loud and strange sounds. They scared me because they came so suddenly every time, and it was turning dark. I have never heard that before. It must be powerful forces at work. When I had finished shooting, I turned around and there was the moon rising over the mountain top. The moon was full, and it reflected beautifully in the lake.

Good Start. Love the photos and the Squirrel looks great. Didn't have time to shoot this week with all of my school work. This is one from two years ago.

Morning all, I took this at the weekend on Topsail Beach N.C, there is hardly ever a person on it this time of year, in the distance is a little house that is on stilts into the ocean.

As a former professor, I know it is sometimes difficult to get everyones attention. This group of generally attentive eagles was photographed on the Nooksack River in NW Washington.
