Instead of having our eclipse shots spread over several threads, I figured it would be best to put them all in one place. Here's one of my full eclipse shots from last night. Still working up the partial eclipse shots but moving a bit slower than usual this morning (or is it still last night?)

Any clue what kind of duck this is? My first thought is that it's a juvenile mallard but I couldn't find a photo of one that looked anything like this, especially that white chest. Maybe it's some kind of mutant or hybrid or ?

Here's a handy little page that will calculate the time in your area for the coming lunar eclipse. For me, the apex (or nadir, depending on how you look at it) will be 1:46 AM. Gonna be a tough Tuesday... http://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in.html

I'm new at teleconverters so I am wondering if others have noticed play between their TC connection. There's between 1/16 to 1/32 inch worth of play between my camera body and teleconverter (clockwise/counter clockwise). In fact, there's enough play that it will register a bar difference when...

I've been asked to write a review on the Nero Trigger (see NeroTrigger) and it has finally arrived today. But before I get started, I'm wondering if anyone else has had any experience with it (not to mention help if I get stuck). Ideally I'd like to add to the review comments from others here on...

It doesn't look like Nikon is going to get a home run out of this one, either. DxOMark dissects Nikon 1 V3, sees no great improvement from previous generations

Well, my monster of a lens arrived safely yesterday and today I was able to take her out for a test drive. Unfortunately, it was a bit cloudy here so all these images were taken at ISO 400. I've got them broken down into the whole image followed by a crop. There not much PP on these shots and...

The first real shot from my new D800E. One early observation is the shutter sound is different. There's a subtle noise it makes, almost a very quick whistle, that my 800 does not make. This shot was taken with my 70-300mm wide open at f/5.6 and at only 1/125 sec and I've not yet tuned this lens...

Ouch.... "The debacle started when the China Central Television show “3.15″ (sort of like 60 minutes) not only accused Nikon of selling a defective product — something the company has pretty much admitted to at this point — but also featured hidden camera footage of employees denying returns...

(Post attempt #2) I found this small herd of sheep while putzin around the foothills of the Gallatin Nat. Forest. D800; 70-300mm;

I received my price increase letter today and not sure what I think. $99 may be near my tipping point. Given that most of my purchases are well over the minimum "free shipping" level, not sure whether this so-called service is cost effective any longer. Yes, the free movies they provide to prime...

I figured I'd start a new thread for my northern images. The sun broke through today and the snow is melting quickly now. Hopefully spring is finally arrived. This was shot on the banks of the Yellowstone River.

We've all heard the term "post processing" when discussing digital images but is this term really accurate? I, like many others here, record my images as RAW files and RAW files are just that, raw and completely unprocessed. I then load the RAW files onto my computer and process them for the...

I've been attempting to move my former Zenfolio portfolio to Behance, whose design is considerably different and far less user friendly. So far I've only published two 2 projects but more are on the way. In the meantime, I thought I would share the photos from my newly published "Hummingbird...
