Re: Can Anyone Identify this Bird? Not sure about the type of hawk although I"m leaning towards a young Cooper's Hawk. It was very lanky (thin) for its height although not as tall as the Cooper's Hawks I've seen in the past. In a FB group, one person said Cooper's Hawk while another said...

When searching for info on ND filters, this one showed up as a search result. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1423195-REG/ice_ice_100k_77_77mm_nd100000_filter.html It's an ICE 16.5 stop ND filter. No reviews on B&H yet. I know solar filters are quite pricey. Around the time of the solar...

Stopped to photograph this memorial bench - the dog's owner was playing fetch at the edge of the lake which attracted a number of dog-walkers. This 10-month old pup was SO well-behaved that despite other dog owners allowing their dogs off leashes, he only wanted to play fetch.

I think it's somewhere between 5 and 10. @jdeg would know for sure! Sorry you are having trouble posting links, dieselnutjob. Just keep posting - you will definitely pass the limit very soon!

@Dangerspouse I think my all-time favorite raptor images are the eagle shots from this past January. I don't think they were posted in this thread. Sadly the township cut down the trees where the eagles rested while eating. And the township is supposed to fill in the lake where the eagles...

If you see a photography related item for a great price that might interest other forum members, please post it here. Unfortunately I missed a great sale on the Nikon D750 body that included a 4TB Seagate drive. It was only offered for a day or two.

​"Low Key" (Dangerspouse's choice) Low Key photography tends to be dark and moody. One great thing that Dangerspouse pointed out is everyone can choose their own subject for this weekly challenge. Here is a link explaining a little about Low Key photography for those who might want some...

So what's on your holiday wish list this year? :cool: The holidays are approaching and Black Friday/Cyber Monday specials will be available soon! I see the Nikon D750 is being offered for a low price of $1196.95 (new body) right now - I am very tempted to get another one because I do prefer...

October 16th is Global Cat Day: recognizes the need to adopt and foster cats. This is our sweet adopted cat Cherub who is 16 years old. We adopted him when he was just a kitten. He would climb into the engine of my SUV to stay warm so I'd always have to check before starting it. He is a sweet...

One of our parks offers a Scarecrow contest. These were put up just today. I'm not sure when they judge them - possibly at the end of the time they are on display. I love the raven in the one with the pumpkin head. It looks very realistic. Mostly I take these images to share with the...

These are also cross-posted elsewhere. This tall ship was here for a weekend - when I went, there wasn't any parking available. So I returned on Monday without the hassle of crowds. Although they didn't allow tours on Monday, it was a great day for photos without having a lot of people around.

These were cross-posted in one of the bird threads. And I know I'm missing several photos that are posted elsewhere. But this was my first time seeing the Great Egret and wanted to include it in my own thread.

Back in 2013 I joined Nikonites - a time when this forum was really a hub of activity. That October @jdeg @Eduard @BackdoorHippie and I got together in Princeton, NJ to meet and join in the Scott Kelby Photo Walk. Fast forward 6 years. Jake (BackdoorHippie) donated some prints for a Cancer...

Here's a new item. https://www.slrlounge.com/sandisk-releases-a-1tb-extreme-pro-sdxc-memory-card/

I can't decide between these two.
