I love it. Nothing to compare it to though.

@Dredden85 - looks like a Nightjar to me.

@Gitzo:I am pretty sure it was a Snowy egret.

The first spring flowers get a white cover-up as a welcome in the moment, so I thought it was appropriate to answer with more beach.

Last share from Yosemite until I go back for another visit.... North Dome at Tenaya Creek beneath Half Dome.

I've never tried anything else, but I love it. It has a good set of film profiles too so you can have the grain and contrast of Pan 50....

This Swan was rather oblivious to me for some reason. Decided to go for the head shot in flight... I know the purists will hate not having the whole bird, but we all know what swan butts look like

So one thing lead to another and I ended up receiving my new Nikon 70-200 f2.8 in the mail today. I couldn't be more pleased. What a phenomenal lens.

Only had a bit to play around with it tonight and this was a shot I stumbled on in the bedroom.

A Night Shot with the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 ... nice lens

D800 - Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8 @ 70mm and f/9

Great images everyone.
@ greybagel, that could very well be a stock house photo.
@ Beso, love the sunstar from that lens at f/11. It'll probably wind up in my bag later this year.
@ Nathen, that cityscape has a certain touch of surrealism. Excellent processing.

One from my new toy:



D4, 105mm f/2.8 Micro Nikkor VR, 1/60, f/25, ISO 100, SB-100 w/Lumiquest Softbox. See, I do have a flash.... )

Now, a comment on my own photo....LOL. I went back into LR4.3 and fiddled with the crop trying to apply some sort of "rule" and move the image into the upper right "thirds" rule. It did not work and I kinda like the current version which has the flower trying to jump out of the photo.....oh well...maybe.

@Spraynpray- I just looked it up and you are right! I guess "Night Jack" is a nickname for them in Tanzania.

I needed CoastalConn's Tammy today. My 18-200 was just out of reach. I went in to work to try catch an interesting bird I've been seen when walking to lunch. I did not see any of them but I stumbled on a bird I have never seen before:
A Hoopoe (hu-pu)! He would not express his "crown of feathers" for me. I sat there for an hour but he would not venture closer to me.
