The First Ever BIRDS AS ART Lens Guide Impressed by my Sony 300mm f/2.8 images? Use either my Bedfords or B&H affiliate link to purchase your Sony 300mm f/2.8 GM lens and […] What’s Up? Today is Wednesday 28 February. We are headed out early in search of some more pink/purple/blue earth shadow shots. We are dressing very warmly as the forecast cold weather has arrived. I hope that you too have fun. With just two slots left on each Homer 2025 trip, I am hoping to […] This Just In! Many multiple IPT veteran Joe Barranco signed up for both Homer 2025 IPTs. Best not to tarry as there are now only two spots left on each IPT. I’d advise you to sign up for both today! The Sony 300mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens is a Real Game Changer I fully expected […] What’s Up? I hit the sack at 7:30pm on Sunday evening. Today is Monday 19 February 2024. I woke to the alarm at 2:40am after sleeping a handsome 7+ hours. As Jim was kindly driving me to the airport, I began working on this blog post at 4:15am and am hoping to finish it […] What’s Up? Though I just got home, I am beginning to pack my suitcases and one of my Thank Tank rolling bags for my upcoming trip to Homer, AK. I fly to Anchorage this coming Monday. I’ve been relaxing a bit, walking everyday and spending time in the pool, and working on identifying and reducing […] My Call In the last blog post, my favorite was Image #1 by a slim margin over Image #3 because of the super-low perspective. The weakest of the lot was Image #4. Though the square crop was the best available, I did not like it because the bird seems stuffed into the frame with nowhere […] Apologies As I have had just one day off from teaching since I arrived in CA here weeks ago. I have fallen behind badly with regards to answering e-mails. As I fly home this coming Saturday, I should begin catching up early next week. What’s Up? As in San Diego, we have dodged lots of […] Change Your Life Sign up for a Spring Fort DeSoto IPT. Details below. Your Call? Which of today’s featured 1/15 second images do you like best? Why? My Call I liked all of the images in the last blog post. My surprise favorite was Image #3, the Wet and Injured Brandt’s Cormorant. I […] Change Your Life Sign up for a spring Fort DeSoto IPT. Details below. What’s Up? A Must Read for Everyone The second 2024 San Diego IPT lost a morning to rain and the last two mornings featured difficult wind against sun conditions, but the amount of learning that went on was astronomical. Jeanette LaPorte […] My Call In the last blog post, my favorite image was the one of the sea lion. I liked five of the cute, well made, interesting flight shots equally well. For me, the weakest avian flight image was the oystercatcher because of the relatively harsh, somewhat off angled light. That said, I did like the […] My Call My favorite Monte Brown image was the tight shot of the back of the pelican’s head and neck, Image #3. Why? Because of the incredible colors and the sweet, sweet, and distant background. Homer IPT vet and great friend Bob Eastman agreed and was the only one to note that the incoming pelican […] Amazon In it’s infinite wisdom, the Amazon affiliate program recently eliminated all types of generic and logo links as well as product-specific links with images such as those formerly featured on the Great (Photographic Accessory) Stuff tab here (and above on the orange-yellow menu bar).

January 23, 2024 at 11:09am The relatively short focal length and the distance to the subject makes for the broad area in focus even at the wide aperture. What’s Up?

In perfect conditions, I created 3460 images. Now all I need to do is pick the best ones. But first, a nap. What’s Up?
