2014-041: Working In A Vacuum

Getting back on track, one more from today. This young female has made it a habit of bedding down under our bird feeders nightly for 4 or 5 nights now. I was worried a little with the snow, but then I thought, "She would get snowed on anywhere!!" Two minutes later she shook it off, ate some...

And some photos you take because they make you chuckle...

2014-040: Belviedere, NJ this morning. Saw this store window and was immediately drawn to the green snake-skin platform heels. (LR only edit) Getting My Ducks In A Row

A couple of the Train Trestle over the Delaware River between Easton, PA and Phillipsburg, NJ

2014-039: (cont.) There were far less creepy things around Easton today... ...even when I was in the cemetery...

2014-039: Sometimes you go out looking to photograph one thing and then find something utterly... um... different. And mildly disturbing. This is actually hanging from the eaves of one of our favorite gastropubs, Black & Blue in Easton, PA. The owners are, well, a little dark humored...

2014-038: Yesterday was a day I really didn't feel like taking pictures. Managed to force myself to squeeze off a couple if only for the sake of the 365. Wasn't happy with them last night, but I'm feeling a little better about them this morning.

2014-037: Managed a bunch today, all on a whim, all LR-only processed. First a shot I squeezed off of some flowers with my 70-200mm. Wasn't expecting much at all, but loved the way the natural light managed a nice vignette, which I've since enhanced a bit. Seriously stunned at how much I...

We got 2 inches of slush and ice yesterday on top of the 10 inches we got earlier in the week. That didn't deter this critter from finding the nuts that were buried under there. In the winter, it's critical that you don't lose your nuts. ;)

2014-036: It's not just the humans complaining about the weather here lately... Note: I put my Sigma 150-500mm on my D800 yesterday to take some shots and was not happy with the clarity of the images. It's as if diffraction is impacting the image (diffraction on the D800 sensor is supposed...

2014-035: Kissing Your Shadow

Just wanted to give folks a heads up. Seems Adobe has extended the $9.99/month Photoshop + Lightroom Creative Cloud offer through the end of March. This includes the 20GB of cloud storage and Behance membership. There are no restrictions on who can take this offer!! That's right - no...

I posted this in my 365...

Like Moab Man, I would love to see the inside of the cave a little better. The D5200 has a nice sensor and I'm thinking you can probably pull some more out of the darker areas inside - at least you can if you shot raw. Even from the low res, ISO 800 jpeg you've uploaded I was able to brighten...

Here are a couple out the window today. My wife built what we call "The Car Wash", which is essentially a Milk Crate with a jug inside that she tosses stuff in for the squirrels. They have to climb through the handles, which keeps Blue Jays from stealing their stuff (Yes, we actually favor...

Made this for the Mrs. to share with her Bird-Nerd friends...

2014-034: 8 inches of new snow makes for more more shoveling than shooting, unfortunately, but I managed to get these thru the kitchen window. LR-only edits. Dark Eyed Junco Kicking Up The Snow Biting Down On A Frozen Peanut May Not Be A Good Idea

It's not a matter of having to push them around more, it's knowing what sliders do what and when you use them. For the morbidly curious, here's the before and after images that go with the preset I uploaded... Before After In addition to the settings in the preset, I also used a...

2013-033: Sunrise at Merrill Creek Reservoir 7-frame HDR... Lightroom/Photoshop + onOne Perfect Effects 8... D600 Two-fer - Can you tell which is which?? (LR/PS + Nik + onOne) & (3 frame HDR + Nik + Lightroom)
