    Hark 2020

    This was taken last week at church. Sadly they decided to cancel all activities at the church including Worship. At least our Pastor videotaped her sermon and posted in our church's Facebook group. Anyway...at the least the magnolia tree looked nice. :encouragement:

    Weekly Challenge Mar. 18 - 24: Nature

    @cwgrizz there are a number of entries that are close with the total likes up to this point. So I am going to bow out of the challenge. There are plenty of great submissions so far. :)

    BIF - D500 with the 200-500 lens

    @DaveNewman I hope it's okay that I reposted your images to make them larger for forum members to view. Hopefully it will allow them see any issues with shutter speed.

    B&H Payboo card

    If you use the B&H Payboo card for purchases, be sure to check your invoices. The other day they offered the Vello screen protector for sale. I was supposed to save on tax and placed my order with that card. What I noticed is the correct item came with my name on the invoice; however, the order...

    What are your thoughts on this....

    Above was one of my first images taken with the D7200 and the refurbished teleconverter on my 300mm f/4 PF. Back when I compared this refurbished TC with the first preowned TC, I swapped them out to make sure the refurbished one was the one I wanted to keep. Ever since I have had no end of soft...

    Saw this cute chocolate lab taking a swim and playing fetch with a stick. His name is Harley. :)

    Hark 2020

    Bucks County has a variety of scenery. Entrance to a Waste Management landfill. At times the smell is just awful especially with all the gases it creates. :hurt: I've been getting a lot of my eagle photos in this area. Seems the eagles hang out over the man-made hills by their own choice. This...

    Voting for Mar. 4 - 10 Weekly Challenge: "Vintage"

    Congratulations @Needa Andy W @cwgrizz and @Dangerspouse - the hyperlinking hasn't been working 100% of the time lately. In all honesty, I expected to see a few entries finished with a sepia look. Surprisingly there weren't any.

    Dirty monitor

    You might want to look into some type of screen protector for your body. I've been using this one on mine although I don't have a touch screen. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/883535-REG/vello_gspu_nd800_screen_protector_ultra_for.html

    Dangerous Spouse Pics

    DS, make sure you use a lens hood. If you are able to stand right next to the fence, carefully place your lens hood against the chain link. Shoot with a somewhat shallow depth of field. Here are two I shot doing just that. Granted my TC was mounted on my 300mm lens making my DoF even...

    Can you help ID this bird please?

    I hope @BackdoorArts will help me ID this hawk. I'm guessing Red-Tailed Hawk although its tail feathers don't appear too red. The other thing that is throwing me off is its chest. Back when I photographed a Red-Tailed Hawk, the white area around its crop was much larger. There seem to be several...

    A banded Bald Eagle. From what I've found out, the bands might be from New Jersey.

    Hark 2020

    This bridge took over 18 months to replace - lots of delays having to move power lines. I certainly hadn't expected it to look so nice. The last image is the Delaware State Canal that runs beneath the same road, but it is about 50 feet from this bridge.

    Polar Backup Cloud Storage One-time Payment

    Over on Facebook, Popular Photography shared this link for Polar Backup Cloud Storage. It offers 3 plans with a one-time payment for a lifetime subscription. Has anyone ever heard of it or used it? :confused: 1TB: $39.99 2TB: $59.99 5TB: $99.99...

    HDR or D lighting?

    If I am not mistaken, there is supposed to be an embedded jpeg in every NEF. Maybe someone can confirm the info. So any changes made in camera would be applied to the jpeg. What you see on the rear screen is the embedded jpeg - at least that's always been my understanding. @FredKingston or...

    Hark 2020

    I let our dogs out about 9:30pm tonight and was quite startled to see something on the bird feeder. I put the dogs inside and grabbed my camera. The image is over exposed quite a bit compared with how the scene really looked. All I saw initially was a long tail. And it looked like a rat. It...

    Hark 2020

    Today it's been very windy so I doubted I'd see much of any wildlife. However, I was quite surprised to see this red fox sitting just a few feet from the road. I parked my car, got out, and stood by the door to shoot. The fox disappeared very quickly - but considering I was only 50-60 feet away...

    flash

    Chrome doesn't automatically install Flash anymore like it used to. So if those of us using Chrome don't run flash, we get the basic uploader that only allows one image to be uploaded at a time. When we run Flash and reload the page, we get the regular uploader that allows up to 10 images. I...
