Entry #2 - Trunk or Treat combined with a Car Show

Yesterday while photographing this scarecrow, an older couple stopped to talk. The man carried a Nikon D810 with a MagSphere on an attached flash. He mentioned seeing a thin bird house with a really small hole and said a hawk was sitting on top. I knew he meant one of the bat houses (made by a...

Entry #1

PetaPixel wrote an article on how to swap out a piece on the Godox AD400 Pro so it doesn't tip when mounted on the light stand with a softbox or other modifier. https://petapixel.com/2020/09/29/how-to-fix-the-biggest-flaw-in-the-godox-ad600-ad400-pro/

Not for voting. A genuine Gas Station with natural gas - used by some large trucks.

I used to photograph a trusting squirrel I named Wilson but haven't seen him in months. This one has a long tail - almost as long as Wilson's - which makes me wonder if it is a sibling. First I posted this image on Facebook but realized I cropped off part of the tail's length. So I went back...

Not for voting - The Historic Moon-Williamson Log House on a rainy/dreary day.

I use a cell phone app that shows the DoF based on the body, focal length of the lens, aperture , and distance from camera to subject. Since I don't know all the exact specifics, I chose a Nikon DX body, 55mm lens, and f/16 as the specs to use as the example below being 12" away from the subject...

Yes, that's exactly one of the major problems facing Nikonites. So I'm glad @jdeg is working on this!

Have you tried flipping this switch to the other VR mode? I've used both. Both cause problems on my 300mm f/4 PF. One makes the image jump. The other doesn't always lock on. Consider giving it a try to see if you can squeeze out a little more time with the lens. It just might work better than...

Saw three deer grazing today - this was one of them. It stayed put so I didn't see it walk, but it clearly looks like something hit it. I'm trying to see if there is a wildlife rescue that would be able to go there. I haven't heard of any locally that would but hopefully someone will be able to...

Entry #2

Entry #1 Veterans make me happy. This was a chance encounter with a 92-year old WWII Navy Veteran. He was in the Amphibious Corps where they dropped Marines at a beach in Japan. He was sitting on the shopping cart corral when I returned my cart today.
