    My Yongnuos Failed Me In The Worst Possible Way

    I've been in Florida for the last 10 days. Part of the trip, and the real reason we went when we did, was to celebrate my in-law's 50th wedding anniversary. Elsewhere on this forum you'll find a post about how a wedding photographer utterly failed at my nephew's wedding and lost a major block...

    Circular Polarizers and Rainbows - Just Say No

    I recently started using a CPF outdoors. Never did before, but everyone swears by them for landscapes and I do notice that I can get better skies for sure. So, I'm down in FL visiting my Mom and she's yelling at me to come outside and take a photo of this rainbow. I grab my camera, go out...

    Shots from a Bike Run

    Was at the Easton Farmers' Market last week and they had more streets shut down than usual. It seems there was a motorcycle rally to raise money for the families of cops who were killed in the line of duty, with 2 local officers named specifically. So, I got diverted from my normal shooting...

    Too Much Green?

    You need some differentiations among the greens. Foliage contains a large, but varying amount of yellow in the coloration, so when you get a flat green look like this then play with your yellow channel. Easiest way to do this is in Lightroom using the Saturation and Luminance sliders, though...

    Comparison of ALL Nikon Camera Buffer Capacities

    If you shoot in Continuous mode this is one of your important numbers to know watch. What struck me here is that the D600 and D610 are different (looking at 14-bit), with the D610 being lower. I suspect it's because in the 2.x seconds it takes to fill the buffer, the 5.5fps D600 fills it...

    Some Street Photography at Easton Farmer's Market

    continued... The first 3 photos are a series. The boy was walking with his Mom when the rain started picking up. As she stopped to buy them breakfast he decided to sidle up next to a girl behind them in line and get out of the rain. I love the look on his face as he looks up at her as if to...

    Some Street Photography at Easton Farmer's Market

    Two weeks' worth of posts. Last week was busy, busy, busy. Here's 9/6 at the Farmer's Market... (FYI, from 40 feet away this one was so sharp in RAW that had any of her 7 credit/debit cards been showing I could have had a field day with "Jennifer's" bank account).

    The D750 vs. the D610

    Rather than post this in one of the various "Should I buy/preorder/upgrade to the D750?" threads I thought that this comparison from the folks at Photography Life deserved a thread of its own (and maybe a sticky?). Nikon D750 vs D610 The only thing I didn't see that I'd want to see was...

    Jake's Backdoor Hippie-palooza, 2014 Edition

    Popped into a nearby lobby to cool off yesterday during a sweltering Easton Farmer's Market. If you can't quite get the first photo, maybe the second will help?

    Tamron 150-600 + D??? (advise please)

    If you want to shoot wildlife, you want to shoot DX. Period. No, really, shoot DX and don't look back. Because it's all about reach first. The D600 and D610 are identical in terms of the sensor and IQ, so consider anything I say about the D600 to be equivalent. I went from the D7000 to a...

    Jake's Backdoor Hippie-palooza, 2014 Edition

    I like 'em both. Now that I come back to it, however, I'm not a big fan of the tinting I did (in LR - not usually where I do it). Here's an untinted B&W.

    Lots of sunflowers, diced 2 ways. I never thought to show something like a sunflower in B&W, but I like it.
