All are very good, but the first one knocked my socks off. Wish you had included the camera settings. djt

Appreciate the info. No real long exposures I see. The 810 must handle high ISO noise as well as my 70D. Makes a difference if you don't have to remove too much noise.

Super images Gobuster, especially enjoyed the fountain. I always love night time photos. :thumbup:

Yes, the D810 is pretty good with noise at high ISO for a high MP camera. My postings were pretty much straight out of the camera; they were JPEG Normal files so the camera may have applied some noise reduction. I have the RAW files but don't have a reader for the CF card they are on, so won't see them until I return to base. I was surprised with picture No.1 shooting hand held at 200mm and 1/60 sec., I thought it would be blurry but the VR in the lens worked well. The following shot was at 1/4 sec., handheld, also at ISO 3200; it isn't tack sharp but still acceptable, VR is amazing.

Thanks very much. The fountain was challenging, I had to use quite a few different shutter speeds to get the desired effect.
