We ended up with 2-3 inches, depending on where in the yard you measure. The roads aren't too bad, but there were definitely some spots in the neighborhood that were very slick, so I decided to just take some shots around the neighborhood. Came close to slipping and falling a couple times on my...

Into every life a little iguana must fall.

We don't get much snow in the Charleston SC area, so when we do, it's a big deal. They are calling for around 3" in my area, just a little north of Charleston. I went outside a few minutes ago and it's coming down fairly heavily. It's those really small flakes, but it is starting to stick. Air...

heic = High Efficiency Image File Format It's a newer file format that has greater compression that JPEG. Clean the contacts?

Daytona was a great place to grow up back in the 60s and early 70s. I was surprised when I went back for a couple class reunions at how few people stayed in the area. The population growth in Florida has been overwhelming. We are starting to have the same problem here in South Carolina.

Cold and foggy at Magnolia today. Fog stuck around all morning, which made shooting difficult, and the birds weren't as active as usual. Bad hair day. Did I mention it was cold and foggy? And, yes, this is a color image. It was just a gray day. This was my favorite of the day. Looks...

I bought a folding hunting chair at Wally World yesterday on clearance. I plan to use that for times when I should be staying in a spot for long periods of time. If I can be comfortable, I am more likely to be patient and wait for the action to come to me.

Here is the original image. I was playing around with it using some of the filters in PS. When I tried the oil painting filter, I was struck by how much it looked like so many of the AI images you see on Youtube. I believe I have created a new category. Fake AI images. They look like real...

The other option I have considered is to replace the small OEM foot with a larger, more comfortable foot. Unfortunately, while that would help, it suspect that it would still be an issue after a couple hours of carrying around. The combo weighs about 6 1/2 lbs. Not that bad, but it does add up...

What do you think? No peeking at the EXIF.

I'm getting a little tired of carrying my Z8/180-600 combo around all day. I've considered something like the cotton carrier system. I just hate to spend the money not knowing if it will suit my needs. I was a little put off by it not coming with an arca swiss compatible plate, although they...

I have a pair of knit gloves that I cut half of the index finger and thumb off. That allows me dexterity for the controls and covers all but a small portion of my hands. I had a pair of gloves that have half fingers, with a mitten covering that you can pull over the fingers, or pull back and...

Similar experience for me. I shot one wedding back in the film days. When I was active duty, another member of the squadron was getting married. He wanted me to shoot it. I declined until he said it would either be me, or a friend with an Instamatic. I told him to buy me a couple rolls of film...

Went back over to Cypress this afternoon to see if the wood ducks would gather late in the afternoon as promised. New Flash: They didn't. I arrived early and made the rounds to see what things were like in the afternoon. As I was walking the trail, I ran across a group of dressed up folks on...

Thanks. I was hoping for something from either the front or the side, but the year is still young. I hadn't had any chances for any airborne duck shots all morning. I was walking the trail back to the parking lot when a pair of woodies around the corner spooked. I just had time to throw the...

Went over to Cypress Gardens this morning to check out what the wood ducks were doing. I'm going to try hard and get some good ducks in flight images this year. This is my first attempt. Not the best, but it's a start. I did get a decent shot of one in the trees. And this yellow rumped...
