Marcel's irregular contribution to Nikonites

This morning's catch.

I had visitors in our oak tree this morning. And the light was just perfect for a few shots.

The 200-500 is surprisingly interesting to capture insects in flight. Now not all shots are keepers, but with a bit os perseverance I can get fun stuff.

Vertigo, from camera's multi-exposures function.

Neat image, Marcel! :cheerful: Of course I'm sitting here sipping a glass of wine - so I'm not sure if it's your image that makes it look like it's moving or if I've had a wee bit too much. J/K

Cool effect!

Re: Focusing problem

I just wanted to post these two shots. They are not final because I will need to install Topaz later this week when I get time but these done in full shade will benefit from the de-noise hopefully.

Early morning on the patio.

This is what the cat was looking at.

Just for colors.

I did a bit of post processing on my first hawk shot. Removed a few branches that were just distracting and worked a bit on contrast and saturation.

So hot that even the birds want to stay in the water.

I wasn't going to do it, but when I came back home from a meeting last night, a friend had called asking me if I wanted to join him to find a good spot to photograph the NEOWISE comet.

So we kind of found a good spot, but unfortunately I only had brought my 70-200 on the D810 and it was a bit long.

But it's done now.
