Show us your last photo in 2007

With everyone getting new bodies, I think that separate section for you to proudly display your first image from your new acquisition is in order.

This applies to brand new bodies, as well as bodies that are simply newly acquired by you.

Not sure if this is the right place, but would be a good idea or a good memory for people to post up their last photo taken in year 2007...

Here was the last photo of year 2007, just before the fireworks...

Yip,

Good idea.

Although this is not a "first post" thread, I'm moving it to the first posts section, because that seems to me to be an appropriate place for it.

Nice image, btw.

Last shot of the NYE concert(*) before the fireworks.

(*) Taken at f/5.6 400mm 1/15s on the D70, because I wasn't happy with results of closeups with the f/1.4 50mm on D2Xs with SB-800. :)

Sunday afternoon, 30 December. Hot as a bastard, and windy.

I have been wanting to try out some HDR action, so out to the backyard,
choose a scene which offered real extremes of exposure, very bright
sunlight, deep dark shadows under the tree.

Took quite a few groups of shots, the best (for the exercise) being seven
shots bracketed at ev 0.7, therefore ranging from +2 to -2 stops from the
metered exposure. Aperture priority (to avoid dof differences), ISO 100
and shutter speeds ranging from 1/250 to 1/10 at f8

I shot Raw on the D200, converted them to 16 bit tiffs and let Photomatix
do the processing.

The result is impressive, everything is nicely exposed. The blurry leaves
are due to the aforementioned wind. I am looking forward to doing some
HDR work.

Here's my last for the year. A little while ago I know, and, no real excuse, but it's been persisting down ever since!

This is mine! Last Thursday, I was returning from Bundaberg on these conditions and stuck on the right lane at the speed limit unable to slow down or move to the left lane. Other drivers were overtaking without indicating and possibly going at least at 120Km. Luckly I wasn't driving, but seeing the scene through the camera's lense was, I think, even worse. I ended up a nervous reck!

Taken at the 9:15 Family fireworks in Docklands, Melbourne. My 9:15 set came out better than the midnight ones though :( I must have changed the aperture before the midnight ones, and ended up shooting with to large an aperture at midnight, so most were too burnt out.
