Congrats, Lightcapture, excellent image.

I'm ambivalent about this one. One the one hand, I really like it, despite the fact that I missed framing it the way I would choose, if I had had the time. Somehow it seems to miss the mark. This may have been the best of the bunch. I really like the repeating images of the banner...

Didn't realize I had a photographer in this one until I brought up the shadows.

Well, this is a sport, just not a human sport. The Pup and I went to the SouthEast Wildlife Expo today. The main reason was to take pictures of the Dock Dogs in action. We were a little disappointed that they didn't have a practice pool, like they did last time. There were few people watching...

Well, I saw Lost in Space when it first aired.

You're telling your age, Marilynne!

The Air National Guard units typically have pristine aircraft. They have the money, manpower and experience to keep their airframes in meticulous condition. At least that's how it was back in the 80s and 90s. We had a lot of ANG aircraft transferred to us during the first gulf war. When they...

The cheapest way is with a cord, but that assumes you aren't going to locate it very far away from the camera, and don't mind a cord running from the camera to the flash. There are some non TTL triggers (like the Vello Freewave Fusion basic for Nikon) that should work with your camera and flash...

Don't be confused by being able to read the EXIF data in the post, and the EXIF data not being included in the image file. When I export an image using Lightroom, there is an option for including all metadata or including copyright data only(which strips out the metadata). I have had to remove...

Aren't they sweet! Claw in claw.

I flew as a loadmaster on C-141 aircraft for almost 2 decades. The C-130s were considered our "little" brothers, and the C-5s as our big brothers. I never got a chance to fly on a C-130, but I deheaded on a C-5 once. That's one big aircraft. If this shot were of a C-5 you would definitely need a...

Thanks, I'll upgrade to the new version and see if that takes care of the issue.

A new version of which? Photo AI or Sharpen and Denoise?

No problem. I'm known for being cheap about some things, but since I got back into photography, I decided to spend at least a little more than usual to upgrade my computer so that it would run editing software, at least a little faster than the older model I was working with. I couldn't see...

OK, I downloaded the stand alone programs and ran this same photo through Sharpen, Denoise, and then both. The artifacts did not show up, at least in this photo. I like Photo AI a little better than the stand alone programs, but at least I can work around this issue when it rears it's ugly head...

Well, I have an Iris XE integrated graphics. It's not a high end gaming graphics, but it's supposed to be fairly capable, and isn't that old. I'm running an 11th generation i7 processor, and the machine was purchased new a few months ago. I just looked at the system requirements, and it says...

That would be an all you can eat buffet for the squirrels in my backyard. They'd have it cleaned out in no time and be knocking on the back door for more. If I want to feed birds, I have to use baffles, and squirrel resistant feeders, and even then the darned tree rats manage to get into them.

I remember when they used to have depth of field guides on the focusing ring of the lenses.

That's true, but my point is that shooting full frame and cropping is equivalent to shooting in DX mode. If the OP wants to shoot in DX mode for framing or other reasons, that is fine, just pointing out that there is no resolution, or magnification gain by shooting in DX mode with an FX lens...
