I was seven years old when my cousin came to our house with his Nikon F and 200f4, put them in my hands and I looked at the Union 76 Ball in the sky across the valley. I was hooked on photography and Nikon ever since. My got first Nikon was in 1978, a 1972 F2Phot with a 55f3.5 Micro. It was a matter of months I had the F3 and then F3T in my hands and there was no looking back. My first telephoto lens and long favorite was the 400f5.6 EDIF. The first &#8220;wildlife&#8221; photo I ever took with that combo is above and I&#8217;ve been in love with it ever since. It&#8217;s that passion that the brand has always nurtured in my photography back then and still today is why I&#8217;m so thankful and grateful to be one of their Ambassadors. So on this well and hard earned day, I thank Nikon for all the memories I have and will capture with their tools. Happy Birthday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Birthday, Nikon!
