Great photos dhelix33.
Also Great to hear everyone's response about their Df. I bought mine when they first came out, love the controls and low light capabilities. I bought it to hold me over till the D5 is available and as an every day travel camera. It has been great.
Combined it with my old 35-70 f2.8 and it is perfect for travel when you don't want to carry the whole kit. It is also great for teaching the exposure triangle to people who have been stuck in auto mode

Of all of the responses, yours probably is more reflective of my position. The D300 replacement might not ever come, the D810 at dx 1.2 might be as close as it comes. I got thr Df as an interim camera waiting for the D5. It was a camera that had unique enough characteristics that I would keep it and it would have a clear function. I do not want to be a collector.
The D5 sounds like it will be what I am looking for. The rumor specs of 20 mp are fine, the 173 focus points will not likely show up in a lower grade camera until canon or Sony forces nikons hand. So I will anxiously await the D5 and then join the long line of orders so I can wait for the little brown truck
Till then, I have to justify the 400mm Fl. To my wife, we will need a new living room set anyway

Thank you for your kind words. I maintain my own website so feedback is appreciated. I may tear down and reload all images and perhaps display galleries differently. It gives me something to do while Nikon figures out its product line. Still waiting to see if they step up to the plate on a replacement for my D300

I played with the website tonight and reduced the size of the files. It impacted image quality, but loads faster. Thanks for the feedback

Yes I understand the size and weight. I have an F5 and an 80-200 f2.8 It is a beast. But a great beast.
Yes I know it is loading slowly. Sorry. An other days project.
My wife is very supportive. Last year I talked about a gimbal. For Christmas after much research on her part she bought me a weatherly gimbal. After receiving I explained it was overkill for my largest lens a 300mm f4, so I need to get a 400+mm anyway. So a D5 will balance well. I don't expect this to be light, but yes I do understand the weight

Love the responses. At some point she will get a new living room set anyway. I decided the strategy will go out of the box. I will take her to a local Tesla show room. That should give me latitude for a D5 and a 400 mm f2.8 fl

By the way my photography covers a broad range; surfing, birds and BIF, landscape, street, flora and fauna of all sorts:
