Nikon DSLR "Picture Of The Day"

[K1W1]

That's fine. If people want to post I personally have no objections it's just that I thought that it was not the done thing around here.

You should post things in context.
When the thread started I just was not sure that it was "the done thing" in the overall context of the DCRP site forum. It apparently is so that was the end of the matter as far as I was concerned.

The first pano

That could be so many areas of Australia. Amazing how this place is so vast and so different yet so similar in many respects.

ETA: He's hard to expose. He is brownish-black with areas of pure white (neck and belly). It's hard to not clip either end. Any tips?

Black boot polish on the white areas.

Nice dog.

Kellie, you did a great job on the exposure. It probably will depend entirely on the composition of the shot. Since there is white on the face, you will normally want the face to have the best detail. So you will probably find yourself exposing for the white the most. But still try to keep the histogram off balance to the right (if you can) just shy of clipping the white.

thats a terrific shot X.

I took this at an "airshow" here in Bryan, Texas. It is probably a misnomer to call it an airshow, more like a fly-in. anyhoo this is a shot of a Steerman 75 that a friend rebuilt. it took him the better part of 5 years.
