For all of you that have made a donation / subscription to the site, I wanted to say thank you very much for your support. It really helps keep the site going and I want you to know I am very appreciative.
After many years, It was time to create a mobile version of the gallery site. Having said that, you can now browse the gallery software from your mobile device with a better presentation.
Keep in mind, mobile version has some limitations due to so much content on the site. But, the basic functionality is there.
You can always switch between Desktop and Mobile version by clicking on the Computer or Phone icon located on the top menu.
Just wanted to update you on the new Featured Photographer section of the site.
Every now and then a photographer comes along that demonstrates great talent in his or her photography. The featured Photographer section allows us to view these selected photographers and their work.
Please take some time and browse their Photos for some amazing work.
So How Many BYTES must an AVATAR be to get uploaded -- no matter how SMALL I make a pic the message still comes up that is has Exceeded the Byte Size and will not allow me to have an AVATAR -- Please Advise ! PS -- I FINALLY got INTO t his Site after many attempts -- I changed my E mail to my second E mail and user name a bit and got finally accepted to show my NIKON SNAPS !
I have Searched and Searched on this Sie but NO-WHERE can I find how to 'Make an ALBUM' of NIKON Cameras I use, On your OTHER Sites there is 'Edit Albums' then 'make a New Album' but NOT on THIS NIKON Site ! Please Advise --
The feature is there now. From the When youi click on photo from top menu it will appear as menu options on the left. It also will appear on your dashboard.
I am so stoked about the new ZF. I can't wait for my ZF in black to arrive. I think this will be one of those game changing cameras in todays digital world. So much so that today I have created nikon-zf.com just for the ZF series cameras.
I am jealous of those who have theirs already. Otherwise, I would be posting my own ZF pictures. So. I humbly ask that if you own a ZF and wouldn't mind sharing a few pictures on www.nikon-zf.com please do. This is day 1 and there is nothing for me to share yet ,

If you are a blogger, reviewer or run a store that sells camera lenses consider becoming a sponsor and taking advantage of the crosslink feature.
The crosslink features lets you direct traffic to your site specific page based on the lens you cross link. For example, if you wrote a review or are blogging about the Zeiss 50mm Makro Planar you would create a crosslink to your page about the lens. When someone views a photo taken with linked lens, they will see an info box that states "Learn more about this lens from our sponsor". Your name will be listed as a clickable link that directs the user to the page you setup.
The NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena is a prime lens known for its exceptional brightness. Its name, derived from Latin, signifies a state of complete spatial fullness. This lens aims to excel in light capture, producing pleasing background blur (bokeh), and delivering sharpness from corner to corner of the image.
Nikon meticulously crafted this lens to ensure consistent brightness across the entire frame. Its 11-blade diaphragm and substantial rear glass element contribute to creating a circular bokeh effect and adding a three-dimensional quality to images. With its 135mm focal length and wide f/1.8 aperture, it allows for creating a shallow depth of field, enhancing your photography experience. Unlike the Noct lens, the Plena supports autofocus, but it lacks built-in vibration reduction (VR). This lens consists of 16 lens elements in 14 groups and has a weight of approximately 2.2 pounds or 995 grams.
We are pleased to announce the annual Zeissimages.com photography contest in collaboration with our sponsor Zeiss, photography division.

This year there will be no specific theme in general. However, you could say we are looking for that "Wow!" factor. Whether it be landscape, portrait, street or studio. We are looking for that image that keeps you coming back to view over and over.
The winner may have their choice of the one lens from the following list which will be provided and shipped directly from our sponsor Zeiss.
You can provide simple links to your profile with zessimages.com in the url to make it easy to share on other sites by simply prefixing with your username.
That's right. Free classifieds for the time being. No fees. Take advantage and post your ads now. Time to sell some of that gear you don't use anymore.
Ever wanted to replace a photo with a better quality version of it or higher resolution without losing links, views, likes, comments etc... ? Well now you can. I added the ability to replace an image.
Simply click the edit options for the image and Follow the link under the "Replace image" option.
Yes. Very soon you will have the ability to create a story with your pictures. A photo essay with selected images to tell a story. What a great way to convey your scene or topic to others. These will be featured for all to see and read. Still working on functionality. But, hang tight.
So I have noticed that my images look fuzzy on the website. The reason being is because I have a 4k monitor and my display settings on the computer is set to 150% so things don't look so small.
Lightroom knows about this and handles the pixels density and ratio properly. However, the web browsers do not. Therefore, in my case, images look 150% and pretty bad.
having said that, If I export from lightroom and save as a 4000 pixel image, the its scaled down in the browser a little and it looks decent.
Here is an example of the image exported in 4000 pixel

Also you can use any number values, you can start with 10, and increment to 20 or 25 ot whatever. Just remember the display order in the story is based on the numeric value you assign.

I got both of my Nikon el2s' when they were introduced in the 1970s'. I still use both of them. 1black, 1chrome.
Are they the original you purchased in the 70's? Impressive.
