Hey Thresher, if you don't mind sharing, how'd you take those shots of the brookies in the water? EXIF info?

This is the skyraider, correct?

You're right. They were flying with some skyraiders and I mixed them up.

Harvards and Texans

I went to the airshow in Ypsilanti. Michigan last week and set up shop. Here's are some of the better ones.

Ok thanks guys. I also have one more noob question. What filters do you guys use when taking extended exposure pictures (like 1-10 seconds) in daylight without it getting blown out?

So it's as easy as setting it to spot metering and tinkering with the other adjustments??? Wow...I feel stupid

Ok i'll try that out and post it up some experiment HDRs tomorrow...i need to figure this out lol.

Hey guys,

I have a question for ya. What's the trick to taking backlit shots like this one?

or this:

I come semi-close but, to me, it doesnt cut it. What do you guys do?

Thanks

Ok. I use that too but I can't get my HDR's anywhere near as good as some as I have seen. Ive tried 3- and 5- bracketed shots too. Is there any trick to using Photomatix?

Thresher, great shots. What program do you use to do your HDRs?

wow great shots jay! What lens? Is that a tiger trout?

Nice muskie! The D90 is a great camera. I love mine!

and more...

here's more...

Well, here in Canton, Michigan we're home to the largest soccer tournament in the state, the Canton Memorial Weekend Cup, and 3 day tournament with over 200 teams from the midwest. I decided to go and take some pictures. More to come.

From a U18 game:

Well, many of you might not know but I'm also big into European carping'...ya know, with the bite alarms and elaborate baits and mixes...some pics from a recent fish-in (the carp version of a clave).

Some hero shots

very nice Andrew! I love your longer exposure shots! What filters do you use?

I have the D90. It's a great camera, and very comparable to the D200.

Nice Jay! What mm lens did you use for the last shot???

Mess around with the EV a little. That will soften the blown highlights.

Thanks Jay, is that a wide angle lense?

Yeah, I just got the D90 a few months back. Its a sweet little camera.

Seeing all of these great shots, I want to know what macro setups you guys are using?

Welcome dude! Great shots? What model Nikon? Have you played around with the D90?
