Why life is so good being a Nikonian

This week we have a major improvement to announce in the "back-end of things": We have substantially improved the image uploading at Nikonians and it is now easier than ever to get your images uploaded and shared with others, both inside and outside of the community.

Even on the free "Basic" membership level you have your own Nikonians Gallery gaining from the improved upload, though the improvements are really felt if you are a Gold or Platinum member: On these levels you can upload NEF, DNG and TIFF files and share these as well. Your gallery creates JPG representations of your raw files on-the-fly, for sharing and for collaborating with others (ranking/rating/chatting & download).

More information about the new upload can be found here

This week we have the last episode out of Russ' great premium series on photographing Iceland, with good tips and lots of inspiring photographs, there is a promotion on Gold membership valid thru the week and Chris has interviewed pro street photographers, see below.

I am wishing you a very good start of the new week

Street photography
Street photography is a genre that can be practiced by just about anyone, anywhere. You can grab your camera and find an interesting place where people gather and start shooting. In his latest article, Chris Horn (HotSpur369) has been interviewing multiple pro's and shares their methodical advice on how to practice the craft. Read his article

Community
What's the main benefit of a gold membership? Well, except for supporting the community...
You have your own portfolio, you can post NEF and JPG images for critique and post-processing help, you have NEF, DNG and TIFF upload in your Nikonians Gallery, you get your @nikonians.org email address and the Nikonians photographers ID, to mention the main items.

There is a promotion right now on Gold saving you a 1/3rd on the regular amount using the code "GoldSpr1953". It is valid thru 21-APR-2019. Take advantage of this
