one from my travels - BG is a sunset reflected in water.. Reds are clipped but really like the colours so left em as they are.

D3
Nikon 200-400vr @330mm
1/25th -- :)
F8
1600 ISO - :) ;) YES AL - I could have upped the ISO even on the D3 - BUT now what fun would that be ;)
-0.7EV
Matrix Metering
AWB
Handheld

This guy was more than happy to pose, so I used the opportunity to practise technique - good technique and knowing your own and your equipments limitations is very handy - under ideal conditions which this pretty much was, could have increased the ISO to get a faster SS or opened up to F4 or both.

Croppd and sharpened - comments welcome.

A+!! The colors are wonderful, but I like everything else about this as well -- the head turn, the fish-eye at the camera, the one-leg stance. I wouldn't change a thing. Great job! :D

Lance, beautiful in every way! Don't know what else to say... Image reminds me of a giant Creamsicle - orange sherbet on the outside and vanilla ice cream on the inside! Yummy colors!!
