Well, you've seen mine before, but here it is. We also had a "print" competition which sends prints to a multi organizational contest with the PSA (no , not the test at the urologists!). It was last minute and the Pup and I scrambled to print a few images that hadn't been submitted for the...

Just got back. The Pup got an honorable mention in the "Small Stuff", macro, category. I got a 3rd place in the same category, although we were in different tiers, so there was no direct competition. I felt that the image I won with was actually one of the weakest of the images I submitted. My...

Well, I just got a text from a friend that was attending the pre convention presentations today. He said that both the Pup and I had winners. We'll find out tomorrow what they were. We both had multiple entries.

One of the highlights is the "Members Choice" contest. It's an annual contest among the Carolina Nature Photographers Association members where the members vote on the images. We have around 1,000 members in 13 chapters throughout North and South Carolina. The amount of talent is awe inspiring...

Back when I was younger, and still had hair, cameras were simpler. I had no qualms at all buying 3rd party lenses. Money was tight, and there was no such thing as firmware updates. Now, I have decided not to take chances and buy 3rd party. I'm not bashing those that do buy 3rd party, it's just...

Well, this bird has been on my bucket list. When a small flock of them flushed and flew off, I got some shots from too far away. I thought at first they were loons. After getting home and getting a better look at them on the computer, and with a little help from a friend, I now believe they are...

Mouse........ It's what's for dinner!

Congratulations

I see Nikon hasn't bricked the Viltrox yet. Great lens choice and subsequent composition.

Like I said, there were lots and lots of ibises. And this guy keeping an eye on things. I took several shots of this with different focus points, but PS couldn't make head or tails of it in a focus stack, so I just erased the out of focus moon, and copy and pasted the in focus.

Made it out to Magnolia this morning. Nothing special, but a few decent shots. Lots and lots of ibises and coots.

Congrats all.

I second BF Hammer on the CF Express. They are expensive, but you are definitely limiting your camera's capabilities by using the SD card as primary. It certainly sounds like your SD card is defective. It sounds like you ordered it, and depending on where you got it, it may not be a genuine...

Welcome to the modern world! 😉 The biggest down side to mirrorless, IMO, is that the sensor is exposed when changing lenses. I don't think I had to clean the sensor on either DSLR in the family, even after years of use. My Z5 and Z7ii both required regular cleaning, usually with the rocket...

We ended up with 2-3 inches, depending on where in the yard you measure. The roads aren't too bad, but there were definitely some spots in the neighborhood that were very slick, so I decided to just take some shots around the neighborhood. Came close to slipping and falling a couple times on my...

Into every life a little iguana must fall.

We don't get much snow in the Charleston SC area, so when we do, it's a big deal. They are calling for around 3" in my area, just a little north of Charleston. I went outside a few minutes ago and it's coming down fairly heavily. It's those really small flakes, but it is starting to stick. Air...

heic = High Efficiency Image File Format It's a newer file format that has greater compression that JPEG. Clean the contacts?
