I'll post this week as Nicole hasn't.

 

Sometime before midnight (whatever time zone you are in) this Sunday, 5 May 2019, post the best photo you have taken this week. Any subject, any style—just give us your best shot.

 

If you can, list your EXIF info and any special lighting setups you may have used.

I’m waiting until tomorrow - my new lens arrived today! AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR (is there any of the alphabet they missed out there?).

Big old lump of glass!

There’s an ‘N’ but they don’t seem to use it in the title!

If they still used the old notation, there would be a DV•N somewhere in the letter salad for 22 elements and Nano coating. That annotation was scrapped in the early 70-s.

Personally, I think they should just call it a "big old lump of glass" although it probably has a fair amount of faux glass in it too.

Very realistic tonal values, Bengan! :P

This is the thing about old European towns: no trees!
this is one thing I miss from my cultural backgound.

Good action capture, Mike, a little tonal taming
goes a long way in to a better rendition! :P
