Welcome to the 8th episode of MyPictureSunday! Finally dreams become true. For months I was looking to get a new camera but unfortunately it didn't turn out to be easy. First of all: What camera do you want? How much do you want to pay? What lens etc.
All my recent photographs were shot with an iPhone 5S. It makes nice shots but I wanted more. I wanted to show YOU more. I decided to spent some money and buy a new Nikon D750.
Simply because I want to give something back to this wonderful community. For the first time I really do enjoy to take pictures. I used to upload my pictures on google, Facebook, tumblr, flickr etc. but no platform gave me this feeling as Steemit does. No community was able to achieve what you were able to do! As we continue to grow I realize that this is the place I want to be.
I started to travel more in order to show you the beauty of Europe. Starting with Vienna, Paris, Munich, London and Hamburg there are many other cities in Europe coming.
Today I wanted to play around with some settings. It's been a while I used such an advanced camera. I need some time to get used to it. So expect more in the near future!
Now it's your turn!
Let us know how your PhotographyDay looks like! Grab your camera and go out, take some shots and share them on Steemit!
The best PictureDay post gets 50 SteemPower onto his account, the second place 25 SteemPower and the third place 10 SteemPower. Honorable mentions will receive 5 SteemPower.
Make a photography post with at least three shots and tag them with the hashtag: mypictureday and photography. Only use your own work. You are not allowed to use any stock images. Every entry will be reverse-searched and automatically disqualified when other peoples content was found. The pictures must be from the week of the entry. Deadline for your entry is every Saturday 8 pm UTC. Write MyPictureDay in the title of the post. For instance: Flower Power - MyPictureDay Submission Write us what you did on this day and what camera you used for your shots. You can use any device that takes pictures. iPhones, DSLRs, analog cameras, any phone etc.
1st Place = 50 SteemPower
2nd Place = 25 SteemPower
3rd Place = 10 SteemPower
If you are looking for other photography challenges I recommend you to have a stop at Steemit Photo Challenge or YourCityVibez.
Steem on my friends! Prepare for tomorrows next episode of Myth or Fact. It's about time to bust some myths or prove them right!
Yours,
Tim
Yes, you clearly have an amazing piece of equipment... but the equipment means nothing and is rendered useless when not held in the hands of enormous talent!! Your photos are stunning!!!
So bad that I left my camera in Spain and can't have it for another week, I'll pass this first round but can't wait to shot something new and post it for the challenge! Thanks for all the motivation and once again, so happy that you get that Nikon! See you soon with new pics ;)
See you at the second round! Can't wait too see you shots.
Btw. your camera must have a good taint after Spain!
:D Just one question, picture must be from that day/week we put them right? Cannot be older (asking just to know if I got everything right)
Day/Week
I'll see if I come up with something interesting this week. However, I got no fancy camera... My smartphone will have to do.
Thanks a lot for the very generous contest hosting and, by the way, I really like the pictures, they have striking lines!
Namaste :)
ich sags mal so:

Oh, and I resteemed O:)
They all are so much beautiful that I do not want to close this page.
Aw! Makes me happy to hear
Amazing pics man. I haven't really travelled all that much lately. 15 years ago I visited a lot of places. Now its harder.
I'm already looking around more than I usually do these days for a good pic.
มุมสวยโคตรสวยเลยครับ หาได้ยังไงมุมแบบนั้น The view is so nice!!
The first photo of the flower through the lens is amazing! One of the best photos I have seen recently! Thanks you so much for sharing! Keep up the great work
Schöne edits! Über die challenge lese ich zum ersten Mal. Werde das hier nehmen, gestern mit D750 geschossen, muss aber noch editiert werden
Tollen Tag Tim 🌈
Schöner Wettbewerb - da gibt es tolle Fotografen, sehr gespannt! Viel Spass damit @timsaid - ich halte mich mal zurück mit einer Submission.
Tolle Fotos aus London auch, danke dafür. Wünsche einen schönen Restabend aus München.
Danke für die netten Worte, aber eine Submission von dir erwarte ich :P
Schau mer mal :-)
Love the lens shots! :)
Beautiful photography and high accuracy in pictures my friend
Nice post Tim. Always great quality
HDR Effekt passt sehr gut dazu :) Muss mir die D750 auch mal zu legen...
Auf geht's! :D HDR kann sehr nervig sein, hier passt es aber in der Tat
Haha das dauert erst mal noch... noch bin ich ein armer Student :D Hast Recht gab mal ne Zeit da hat jeder HDR überall drauf gesetzt,,,,
Your post made me to dust off my camera.. thanks! Nice photography..
Here we go!
Can I use my Android smartphone for this photo contest?
You can use any device
I'm love the last image a lot
Amazing...good job
Thank you!
Fantastic Pictures my friend. The camera was totaly worth every penny. I have a question : Do I have to take pictures with a camera or am I allowed to shoot with my mobile phone because I do not own a camera yet. Steem ON!
Any device you want
Some nice shots you've got in here!
I'll be watching and looking forward to seeing everything come in.
Great initiative. What a difference it makes when you switch to a "real camera". Lots more depth and sharp pictures.
I will work on a few!
Great! Looking forward for it :)
Awesome! Full steem ahead!
Impressing photos you got there.
How did you made the fifth one? kept looking at it really the best out of the pictures you posted in this one :D
Till when does the picture contest runs? i like to participate :)
Do you mean the 6th? Deadline is every Saturday
ya sorry the sixth.
Must be some reflection is it?
For sure the photo on Steemit where I looked the longest at ^^
Try to find out
Must have been some camera setting to make a split capture or something like that, because the tips of the tower can be seen trough the roof lines.
Maybe. Maybe not
I think I´m very close to the answer?? ^.^
Wow, unbelievable good Pictures 👍

Nice cant wait to submit for this challenge, Thanks for the for sharing Tim!
I'm excited!
Wow, very nice photos. I need to buy that camera
I can recommend that!
It crazy how moving pictures can be. Although they are only a fraction of a millisecond in time, you can spend hours memorized by their sheer beauty, lost amongst the colors, textures and topography.
Well said. It's the moment that tells the story
Thanks! We live for the moments, not the hours or seconds. It is these moments that shape us into who we are, regardless of our age or sex.
Hello.
Nice idea, i like it. I will buy a new camera soon, but i think its will be to late for this challenge.. but we will see...
Good luck to all!
Deadline is Saturday. When you don*t make it in time participate in the next one :)
Ok.. i will look.. in the worst case i will use my handycam as always :D
Thank you!
Even your mobilephone can take great pictures! Look at @acidyo
He does awesome shots with his phone
I know.. look at my pictures ;)
but you say it.. a Nikon is something special :D
so fab! professionally shot!
Thanks!
My new Sony camera is coming in the mail tomorrow. Definitely will be coming back with some shots! Good luck to everyone who participates! Nice shots btw, really impressed with that Nikon :)
Looking forward to see your entry!
Hey Tim,
can you maybe share why you chose to get a Nikon D750? Thanks!
I used to have a Canon 5D Mark II. I knew I will stick to fullframe. I made some research and found out that the D750 has the best quality in this price range
very good and real pictures ☺
Thanks mate
which locations did you take these beautiful pictures? wow just look at the beautiful bee in action!!! thanks for sharing
Hamburg, Germany
sehr schön
these shots are amazing! The Nikon D750 is a great choice but make sure to use different lenses for different shoots, it makes a huge difference! Check out my page if you like you might like some of my photography (: I use the nikon d90 and I love it
Going to check your shots.
Your new camera is sure working well for you. I will try to participate in your contest.
Great to hear!

Isn't that obvious?
1st if all Congratulations on your new camera @timsaid, beautifully taken pictures. please do share more Hamburg with... waiting for more beautiful locations and more of your work...
Thanks for the kind words!
Yes, more about Hamburg would be cool.
Wonderful shots. You make me want to go out again and make photographs. I will be done with my 3rd school year in 2 weeks. Will definitely go out and shoot some awesome pictures after those weeks of hard work.
You deserve it! Show us your work and maybe win a prize!
I will definitely do. Thanks for your support!
Congratulations @timsaid!
