@wornish, Congratulations!

Thanks Don for the response. I usually don't buy extended warranties at all, but I usually have bought new. I don't feel that a little over a $1/month is too much if the company is good and takes care of the camera. I don't want to buy the warranty if it is a hassle to get the coverage when...

Congratulations @oldhippy. A very nice photo.

Thanks @Bill16 I get a lucky one once in a while. I'm always trying to learn and get better.

I saw another post tonight where the question was asked how to remove some poles from a photo. There was a reference to "Content Aware Brush" in PS, so I had to look into the same sort of option in GIMP. As it turns out, there isn't exactly the same option, but close, so I tried it. This photo...

@nickt You have, in your post, pretty much mirrored my thoughts (confusion) and understanding perfectly. Thanks. Today the weather is not cooperating to shoot any good examples because of the cloudy, rainy weather, but here are a few to try to illustrate. All shots are straight out of the...

Yes @FredKingston that would be OK if the shooting scenario was always the same, but with what I seem to be shooting most (BIF) it can be in many different directions and conditions. Clouds, bright sky, trees etc for backgrounds thus creating different lighting. I usually shoot "S" priority...

Just about the time I think I am getting a grasp on the EV +/- compensation concept, I seem to develop a fog in the brain. Ha! I have read and watched videos to explain how the camera works with the exposure and the gray/grey figure, etc. For me common sense seems that if I have a very bright...

You're right @Roy1961. I am really not much of a bird person, so I usually just flip a coin and guess. Ha! Osprey, Hawk, and Bird are all interchangeable for me. :rolleyes: The only real birds that I can always identify are the local dove and quail in hunting season, buzzards and crows. ::what::
