    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    Oops...somehow I skipped uploading photos from 10 days ago. All of these were taken at a local park. The park offers memorials that can be put in the ground or attached to park benches. It was immensely hot this day. In the background below, that isn't haze. There is a quarry where...

    Question for Horoscope Fish

    Horoscope Fish my local school is offering a class on Blown Glass Ornaments for adults in the community. Since I've seen your photos of blown glass, is it difficult to do? I'm interested in taking the class. It's 2 hours per night for 2 nights and supposedly allows people to create 10 ornaments...

    D7200 upgrade to D500

    Jake, I didn't want his question to get buried with all the opinions that came afterwards. @BackdoorHippie

    My SB-910 needs repair

    Made some adjustments to the settings and took a few test shots. Here is my Australian Shepherd, Keilah. The vignette was entirely done in post (in case you think it is too much).

    Merlin Bird App

    @BackdoorHippie gets some hummingbird photos, but whether his are those specific ones, I wouldn't know. I've never seen a hummingbird myself. This will be interesting--I hope some Nikonites will be able to supply photos.

    Better covered?

    Pulling up photos from B&H's web site, it looks like they open in different directions. Sorry I can't be of help to you. I keep the Easy Covers over my Nikon bodies. The silicone wraps around the bottoms slightly--I've never had a problem, but I can't say for sure whether the Easy Cover prevents...

    My SB-910 needs repair

    It arrived this evening. I haven't yet tried it out, but they replaced more than I expected. Before I even sent it in, the estimate ranged between $36 to $149 so when they do the $149 service, they must calculate in more replaced parts than just the metal terminals that contact the batteries...

    Someone's problem with Getty images

    Sorry if this was previously posted--this happened a while back but is an updated story. A photographer was being sued by Getty for copyright infringement of her own image after she posted it on her web site--and also after she released some of her own images to the public domain. Photographer...

    Nikon 18-35mm f3.5-4.5 G ED AF-S

    I love this lens. It's very lightweight. The nice thing is it allows front filters--not all wide angle zooms do. It isn't weather sealed (no gasket on the rear), but read up on the lens and make your own informed decision. I have no regrets. The Trenton Makes Bridge. This is Pennsbury...

    Fireworks question

    I've never photographed fireworks, but a neighbor said he gets a permit every year and sets them off in his backyard. These properties aren't all that big. For example, some homes have no more than 12 feet between them (side-by-side), and the backyards aren't huge by any means either. Since...

    My SB-910 needs repair

    Looks like they don't have all the parts in stock. I wonder where they get their parts from. :confused:

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    One more from Bristol, PA yesterday. This is the Delaware River with New Jersey across the water. There were several people out in different types of boats and watercraft.

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    While I was there in Bristol, PA, I decided to head to the waterfront. The town has a nice area with benches overlooking the Delaware River. I couldn't believe the high number of both adults and kids milling about. There is even a path through the woods which many were using. In fact I've never...

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    After the weekly challenge for Street Art & Graffiti, I decided to see what was going on with this painted wall that I photographed back in 2013. Last year a local news outlet reported it would be repainted. The last time I was there, the wall had been stripped of the painting and was...

    My SB-910 needs repair

    It seems each time I try to access my repair status, I have to go through this screen with an email address which must notify Nikon that I'm checking. I don't remember having this show up when I sent in my D600 a few years ago. Please note this isn't a complaint--just letting people know how the...

    My SB-910 needs repair

    Nikon should have received my flash unit on Tuesday so I called today because I wasn't able to find the order number on the packing list that was enclosed in the box. Nikon sent me an email with a link to download the PDF that needed to be included when sending in the flash, and according to...

    Pixel Sorting

    While reading through my Facebook news feed, this image showed up. Initially it was claimed to be taken by the Hubble Telescope but was later found out to be false. In reality, it is an image created using Pixel Sorting. Just wondering if anyone has ever tried pixel sorting. The image has been...

    My SB-910 needs repair

    I've had my SB-910 for a few years now although it's seldom been used (bought it new). Not long after I bought it, I left the batteries in it for a few weeks. Unfortunately the Duracell AA batteries leaked causing corrosion on both ends of the terminals. :( After cleaning the terminals, the...

    Weekly Challenge July 6-13: Street Art & Graffiti

    How many of these US landmarks can you name? Bucks County is known for its covered bridges, but other than that one, the rest tend to be national landmarks. I thought it was odd that the pole for the Route 66 sign extends into the foundation. Not sure why it was done that way--perhaps it is...

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    I went back through some unedited photos taken in December.
