Reinwardt's Argiope Spiders- Argiope reinwardti ♂♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

Two male Argiope spiders (top left) fighting over the female.

Unfortunately, in the spider world, the fastest and strongest males do not always get to the female. A hungry female may actually eat up the much smaller male.

So the male doesn't only have to be strong and fast, he has to be smart too to be able to mate successfully. This is an example of evolutionary pressure.

hai guys..just wanna ask about nikon services..

i got nikon D60 with original lens that come with it when first bought it back 2009..

i was wondering where can i send the lens for service because there is something in the lens when i took picture like a dot.

thank you

Thinking should I quit Photography... been stop using my nikon d7k n d4 for quite some time d...

Gears getting rusty ... button getting stiff!
I m guess my 50mm f1.8 become a fungal societies d ... Left back Tokina 11-16, nikon 70-200, 35mm f1.8, tamron 90mm macro and 18-105 kit lens and few more...

Left back few big guns sit calmly in my bag since last year...
Thinking of switching to D750 and selling off my D7k and D4. If there's any Nikon FX dslr can shoot 4K, wouldnt mind save money for that... but is there any dslr like tat in the market now?
Wonder how much can I sell for D7k with original battery grip?!

Happily enjoying my Canon G16, iPhone camera and a cina brand action camera... Lazy to walk with big guns especially while traveling...

Beautiful damselfly (Libellago lineata ♀?) by PF T.J., on Flickr

Not really sure about the ID, but this particular damselfly has a tail that is shorter than its wings, so it under the family Chlorocyphidae; or more commonly known as "Gems".

These beautiful damselflies can usually be found in botanical gardens to forest parks, where they love to just perch on small twigs.

where's your location? i am looking for used d7k

Good wide angles for DX can be Nikon 10-24mm or the 12-24mm but there are no where near your asking price even 2nd hand. But if you can consider the 18-140mm, not too bad either and goes for less than 1k used.

I like it very much. I just got the VR2 because I need to shoot in low light and made some comparisons with the AF-S 80-200mm f/2.8. Focusing speed / lock goes to the VR2 but only because it's a newer lens. Not day and night difference like AF-D vs AF-S, just slightly faster only. Surprisingly for an old lens, it's still good on a high density sensor like the D800. You'd only see very slight difference in quality when viewing at 100% on monitor and most of the time the sub par shot is mostly because of user error. Calibrate the lens to the body and with right technique, you'll get excellent shots.

Yes, the AF-S 80-200mm f/2.8 is solid and built like a tank. One of my most used lens. I've used mine now for 10 years already.

Errr, how can the Tamron be an upgrade to the Nikon?

Yup.

I think it's silly. In my opinion, with the Sony A7 series, one has the most lens option to choose from.

Yeah, the crack in the AF-MF ring does not make the lens AF-less. AF still works.

Read that it's not too bad if compared to the ultra expensive Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8. A good alternative for those who cannot afford the Nikon.

Wah, D4? Respect.

BTW, don't know if you're aware or not but if you're interested in shooting 4k, then you're in the wrong camp. You should be getting a Note 4, S5 or S6.

pj, selangor.. where your area?

If u interested, let's discuss in pm then...

haha... yeah, got that... been thinking of getting a go pro hero4 black edition...
but again, i have many camera liao...

In my list... I think I owned more than 18 cameras including dslr ever since I started photography hobby many years back... Thinking of retiring now, taking picture as leisure purposes... lazy to pp n carrying big guns around d...

My very first Digital Camera was 2.1 Megapixel BenQ DC2300 (yr 2003) and so on was> GrandVision > Pentax Optio E10 > Sony Cybershot DSC-P3X > Panasonic Lumix LS5 ... (many more)... till Nikon D5000 > D7000 > D4 > Canon G16 n go on...

Now venturing in underwater photography... Those equipment is crazily pricy!!!

Hopefully, there's a good uw camera! I drowned my Nikon AW100 last year in Perhentian... hahaha...

Agelenid spider ♂ (Agelenidae) by PF T.J., on Flickr

A male Agelenid spider. These spiders are often called "Orb Weavers" which build a flat sheet of non-sticky web with a retreat tunnel somewhere around the middle of the web. The spiders often wait near the tunnel for insects (especially grasshoppers) to leap into the web and become trapped.

Agelenid spiders are very fast runners, and will quickly dart into their retreat tunnels at the slightest disturbance.

Some of these spiders were reported to be social spiders too, rare!

Crane fly by PF T.J., on Flickr

Crane Flies are medium to large-sized flies that pretty much look like oversized mosquitoes.

Known commonly as "Mosquito Lion" or "Mosquito Hawk", adult Crane Flies don't actually hunt mosquitoes; in fact, they do not eat at all. Adults only have 10-15 days to mate before dying.

Greenish-Pink Slantfaced Grasshopper (Acrididae) by PF T.J., on Flickr

Not all grasshoppers look like the ones we usually see. Some have long, slanted faces; and that's how these particular group of grasshoppers got their names.

These medium-sized insects are highly sensitive and prefer living in bushes and undergrowths.
