    Hark 2019

    I really need to get caught up again. These were from January 26th. A few days earlier, I watched 2 eagles performing a courtship ritual so I went out with hopes of seeing an eagle again. There were 5-6 flying around. One would fly from a nearby tree, skim the lake and catch a fish, then return...

    Troubleshooting 300mm f/4 PF

    Over a week ago, I was out shooting eagles with my Nikon D7200, 300mm f/4 PF, and a Nikon 1.4x teleconverter. I switched between Aperture Priority (which is set as AF-S) and U2 which is BBF and AF-C. The reason I switched back and forth is due to trigger thumb in my right hand. BBF isn't always...

    January 2019 Theme: Action

    Entry #1 - directly into the sun which is why the background is blown out.

    I was so annoyed with myself for not getting images of two eagles during their courtship/pre-mating ritual last Wednesday that I went out a few days later in hopes of finding an eagle to photograph. I was thrilled to see at least 5-6 eagles flying around. This one was pretty close. The lighting...

    Sweethearts Candy Collage

    I'm looking to make a collage poster with the Sweethearts Candy as the theme - and would like to insert a photo into each one (with a clipping mask). But does anyone know how to create a 3-D heart in Photoshop that would look similar to the Sweethearts Candy? Below is a web image of the candy. I...

    Hark 2019

    Here are a few from yesterday afternoon. The area beneath the fishing pier looks like icy fringe. Here's a close up showing that ice. These supports reminded me of Clydesdales' hooves. I almost wanted to look around for a cow. The ice below reminds me of cow udders. :rolleyes...

    Weekly Challenge Jan. 16 - 23: Round and/or Unique or Unusual door

    Lol @Marilynne - okay, so I decided to take you up on your edited comment! ;) My choices were: Eenie - the round gas cap door on our SUV Meeine - an antique door shot with a rectilinear fisheye lens which would distort the door (the option I was really leaning towards) Miney - the glass door...

    Saw both of these at the park but on different days. Sunday was the first time I photographed a heron at this park.

    By yesterday afternoon, Sunday's snow was melting.

    Hark 2019

    We had an inch-and-a-half of snow during Sunday's early morning hours. It resulted in very serene scenes. The heron at the end was a bonus! Below notice the heron sitting at the water's edge. Last Thursday was the first time I've seen a heron at the park but didn't have my camera. So I...

    Hark 2019

    I need to get caught up - have a few that aren't yet posted. It's very unusual to see deer out in the middle of the afternoon. As I drove down the road, they started to cross it and headed into the park. So I stopped and walked over. The adult was wary and turned to walk back across the road...

    Got stuck trying to preview my post

    There's always a first for everything. :beguiled: When I tried to preview a post in my thread, the forum took a long time. When my post was ready to be viewed (hadn't yet submitted it), all the pics were simply displayed as code. None of the images displayed correctly. Everything in the reply...

    Hark 2019

    This is the inside roof of a small pavilion. The eerie glow was from light reflecting off of ice on the ground. I could have removed the glow during post processing but decided it adds an element of weirdness. And I noticed a new memorial bench. The person chose a fantastic place--right...

    Hark 2019

    Took this the other day. I turned my car around and went back to ask if the flag could be taken down. The person was very humble, and despite the freezing temps while they were dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, and bare feet, he/she went right over and took it down. It's not the kind of thing...

    Post your flag shots

    Seeing this today bothered me so much that I turned my car around and went back. After asking the person if it could please be taken down, he/she immediately removed it. I also gave the location of the only flag collection box that I knew of. The person nodded in agreement. No attitude. No...

    Nikon D7200 sale!

    Wow, the Nikon D7200 has been lowered to $696.95 for a new body. ::what:: For anyone who is sitting on the fence, this body is supposed to be discontinued. It's a dual card slot DX body whereas the D7500 has a single slot. There might be other dealers offering the same price as B&H for a new...

    I'm on a computer so I had to scroll down to see the entire pic. As I got to the bottom, my head turned sideways looking at it's foot. I swear it reminds me of a yellow Mickey Mouse glove! Web image:

    Photoshop Frames

    Has anyone ever gotten frames for Photoshop that can be used for holiday images? For example, I'm looking for a PCC frame of a holiday wreath where I can insert a photo in the middle. But I'm not just looking for holiday frames. There must be some web site that offers PCC frames either for free...
