I just got Sharpen and DeNoise from Topaz and I'm learning how these programs work and just how far they will go. Here's an example from a Hummingbird whose face was blurred pretty badly. I am pretty amazed with the results. As I learn to use these tools, I think they will be helpful in many...

Not a cloud in the sky yesterday morning, but this was what sunrise looked like. Several fires in Colorado right now.

For those of us from the US, happy July 4. :)

Tony Northrup wants to establish a new system of camera settings. What do you think? I'll refrain from giving my opinion until people have had a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxOZoWtNJuo&t=324s

Since I have "known" many of you on the forum for years, I felt it was okay to post this. Yesterday we had to say goodbye to our sweet cat, Cecily. My wife and I are really hurting from this. I wanted to post one more picture of our girl here as a sort of tribute.

I checked today and my D500 has had 250,000 shutter actuations. It's still going strong, but when I saw a used D500 with only 3,000 clicks on MPB.com for $1019, I jumped on it. Having a pair of D500s I feel like I'll be set for several years to come. Now, anybody want to buy a D7100 or a 300mm...

My oldish computer can't run this software, but I thought many of you would be interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyNdi8y619o

There will be a few shots from last year before I get to 2020. Call it 2020 hind site.

So my wife and I drove out to Lake Tahoe for a cycling event she was participating in. Two days to drive there. The first evening we go on a boat cruse, and the weather is overcast, so I just take a couple of iphone snap shots, planning to do the real photography the next two days. Then I wake...

Now through June 1. I just snagged a 200-500mm for $140 off. Tons of stuff reduced: https://www.nikonusa.com/en/nikon-store/mothers-day-sale.page?icid=img_en_us:deals_cat:banner:1:CaptureSavings_main:base:042819:mothersDay

Happy earth day!

I thought I'd get this started this month. Post your favs, people! :)

I have been watching Oddbjörn's videos for a while now, and they are always interesting and fun to watch. He is very creative, and just a touch crazy, and I find his images inspiring. Plus, the Norwegian landscape is pretty amazing. Check out his videos if you are interested...

Javalinas from New Mexico. One came right up to us, I had to back up to keep him in the frame.

So it's the last day of 2018. I decided I could grumble about the flat light and cold, or I could get up off of my butt, grab my camera, and grab some pictures. :) Happy New Year, everyone!

So my local store, Mike's Camera, stocks items from a brand called ProMaster. I know other independent camera stores do, as well. Today I picked up a gel stick sensor cleaning kit for $35 that has a flat gel stick, and a sort of snub nosed one for getting corners and edges. I have never seen the...

Hi All. I have been taking shots of a local, iconic peak, and wondered if you could give an opinion on which is your favorite. THANKS! 1 2 3 4

Here we go again. After constant problems with intermittent refusal to AF on my 150-600mm a011 (the first generation of this lens) I bought the new G2 version and sold the old after a complete overhaul by Tamron. Now the new one is giving me more problems than the old on ever did. 1. Complete...
