The Pup and I went to the zoo yesterday. Here are a few:

Camera found in woods. Looking for owner. This was the last image in the camera. You paid HOW MUCH for a camera lens?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I guess it's time to switch to a new year's thread. Unfortunately, things were a little slow at Magnolia yesterday. Early morning was very low light, and the critters were not as cooperative as I'd have liked. "Mama said there'll be says like this. There'll be days like this, Mama said." This...

Wow. Those eagle shots make mine look like a kid with an Instamatic. Not that there's anything wrong with being a kid with an Instamatic.

So, which Z camera are you going with?

Mirrorless is the direction that almost all manufacturers have turned to. Nikon no longer develops new DSLR cameras or lenses. If you are looking at a crop frame Z mount, I would highly recommend getting the new Z50ii over the Z50. My daughter has one, and I am surprised by it's features and...

Do you have any lenses currently? As to the vintage lenses being better than today's, IMO, they are better in only one category. That is durability. Current lenses are in general, sharper and have less optical issues than vintage. The 18-55 kit lens that commonly comes with the crop frame...

Try one of the hand squeeze blowers first. Sometimes you can dislodge the dust with just that. Don't use one of the canned "air" products. The swabs are a little scary to use the first time or two. I cleaned my Z5 sensor with them many, many times. One trick that can help identify dust and where...

Thanks. It's really helped that things have been hopping over at Magnolia the last couple weeks.

Some folks really enjoy what they love doing so much they are willing to brave the elements. I can remember a dive trip when we had ice forming on our gear between dives. And that was when I was still diving in a wet suit. Dry suits make things so much more comfortable in cold weather. The right...

Very nice. Did you have to wait on the sailboat to get to a good spot in the frame, or was it just a bonus when you took the shot?

Another trip to Magnolia with the new 180-600. I'm liking it. Still a few things I'm getting used to, but the AF is definitely a step up from the adapted 200-500. I don't think I would have been able to get this shot with the 600 prime I was considering when buying the 120-600. I doubt it...

Great sequence. One of the handlers at the Birds of Prey Center says that eagles tend to be bullies.
