Marilynne's Wetlands and Other Stuff

Finally had my sensor cleaned. They did a good job!

Came out good. I just cleaned mine as well. Had a couple dust bunnies in there.

Thanks Steve. I lived with three spots for about six months, but a whole lot more popped up recently.

She was in the shade and I asked her move to a sunny area. This was what I got.

A lot my of photos of this portion of the canal are taken from the road over there. Decided to try this road yesterday.

I think the reflection of the trees overpowers this shot.

Some orchids in the neighborhood (same yard). It was very windy so I'm surprised I got these shots.

Daylight savings time ended this morning at 2am. For those of us that have the time change - did you remember to correct the time in your camera(s) yet??

Thanks for the reminder M. Bet you're excited now that all the birds are back in Florida!

My first Bald Eagle in the wild (with a camera). It was way off. I had no idea what I was shooting until processing time.

Aren't surprises great, Marilynne?

Me (photo by Chris) - I haven't figured out the best way to hold the lens yet. Sometimes I use the tripod holder, sometimes the lens barrel.

Try a beanbag to support your lens on the railings along the boardwalks. You can purchase ones made just for photography, buy a generic one that you can convert by putting a camera attachment plate with it, or make your own. I've asked my wife to make one that has a lanyard attached to it so that I can wear it suspended from my neck.

Thanks Pat.

Thanks for the tip Wayne. I've seen people use a gardening knee pad on the railing. If you get your wife to make one, have her make two and you can bring it down next time you visit.
