    Injured Deer

    Saw three deer grazing today - this was one of them. It stayed put so I didn't see it walk, but it clearly looks like something hit it. I'm trying to see if there is a wildlife rescue that would be able to go there. I haven't heard of any locally that would but hopefully someone will be able to...

    Angel Wing in Geese/Ducks

    Yesterday I posted one of these images in a Facebook photo group and was told the goose might have Angel Wing (it also goes by other names). It is a deformity caused by nutritional deficiencies which makes the wings grow outwards rather than to lie flat against their bodies. It can leave them...

    Rosh Hashanah thru Yom Kippur 2020

    Just a reminder places such as B&H, Adorama, and other camera stores that observe these holidays will most likely be closed for 10 or so days. If you are planning to order, you might want to do it in advance. Otherwise, I don't believe placing an order is available during the days they are...

    Refurb 1.7x TC & 300mm PF

    For the past few months, I've mentioned how my refurbished 1.7x TC coupled with my 300mm f/4 PF was stellar until I removed the TC from my camera before being put back on. Then suddenly my images missed focus - mostly being soft and slightly out of focus. And there was some front focusing going...

    D500 taking its own pics?

    Today is the second time I've run into something unusual. Looking through the images I shot today, the first one is simply a blurry image that is green. It was taken 2 minutes before I took a photo of a birdhouse. The other day I had a couple images of nothing (blurred pics of nothing) that were...

    How many owners of the D500 make use of the various User Banks? There is a Photo Shooting Bank, a Custom Shooting Bank, and a My Menu. All of these can be configured with various settings to make changes somewhat quick but involve having to go into the menu. But with my other bodies, I make use...

    Any 'Chicago' fans here?

    Tomorrow I am hoping to fulfill a dream by taking pics at a park. Why? Because it's Saturday. In the park. I think it was the 4th of July. The day only falls once every so many years. ;) Sorry for the last minute post. If you live near a park and have access to take pics on July 4th, please...
