At the bond in the evening..

I had great luck to have Nikkor 500/4 one day. The glass is made to shoot birds so i decided to do so too... I've also have my 2X teleconverter with me and with that it made 1000mm lens, and when i used my camera in crop mode i had extra 500mm more to total 1500mm :-) Because of that converter i had to use f8.0 as a largest aperture went Iso quite high...

*Photo Processing Challenge 5/2013 - Las Vegas:

The theme this time is Las Vegas. Since Mika is spending some time there at the moment, let's surprise him and process all photos "Las Vegas style". If you have never visited there, please check how the city looks like from Google image search and process your version to look the same. Anyway, the style is totally up to you so use your creativity!

As usual, you have one week to process your version and upload it to the "PPC 5/2013" folder in our community. You can process either DNG or JPG version. You decide.

DNG: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B682ifb8y2ypbl9Zb3VYSFpsMkE/edit?usp=sharing


JPG: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B682ifb8y2ypWVdoN1FxS2REbjg/edit?usp=sharing

PPC 5/2013 starts now!

Chinese DIY Inventions - 39 photos - http://theatln.tc/16ZfRE4 - One visible sign of China's recent economic growth is the rise of inventors and entrepreneurs. For years now, Chinese farmers, engineers, and businessmen have taken on ambitious do-it-yourself projects, constructing homemade submarines, helicopters, robots, safety equipment, weapons and much more. Some of the inventions are built out of passion, some with an eye toward profit, (some certainly safer than others), and a few have already led to sales for the inventors.

Soufriere Hills Volcano - 31 photos - http://theatln.tc/112DqKZ - Before 1995, the Caribbean island of Montserrat was quiet tourist destination -- a British Overseas Territory with a population of 11,000. Then, the Soufriere Hills volcano came to life after remaining quiet since the 17th century. Thousands lived in the direct path of ensuing mudflows and pyroclastic flows -- cascades of hot gas and rock. The capital city of Plymouth and 20 other settlements were completely destroyed. More than 7,000 residents moved away, and tourist dollars vanished. While the volcano is still active, it has been relatively quiet since early 2010, and nearly half of the island remains a designated exclusion zone.

Afghanistan: April 2013 - 39 photos - http://theatln.tc/1606LXq - Last month, reports surfaced, later confirmed by Afghan President Hamid Karzai, that the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency has been delivering bags of cash to Karzai for a decade, in part to buy continued access and cooperation during the war. The New York Times reported that the payments had not resulted in the influence the CIA sought, and had instead fueled corruption and empowered warlords. As Western troops continue the long process of preparing for their December 2014 withdrawal, evidence of significant progress in Afghanistan remains elusive.

Kaikenkarvainen bloggailu on valokuvaharrastamisen yksi sivuhaara. Tänne sopii laittaa linkkejä omiin ja miksei tarvittaessa muidenkin kirjoituksiin.

Yli 360 jäsentä ja siitä noin 20 äänessä. Mikä muita ujostuttaa?

Täällä ei ole mitään rajoituksia kuville (paitsi säädyllisyys), eikä kuvaajien tasoa mitenkään jaotella. Rohkeasti vain liikkeelle laittamaan omia kuvia näytille, kommentoimaan JA plussailemaan muiden kuvia.

Meillä on käpytikka tehnyt uusia aluevaltauksia puolisonhoukuttelupäräytyksiin. Ensin kokeiltiin vanha lintupönttö, sitten metalliset talotikkaat ja kulkusillat ja viimeisenä valtauksena on metallinen piipunhattu...

Lähtee melkoisia päräytyksiä.
