I don’t know who the photographer is, but this was submitted to our NewzJunkey site on Facebook the other day. This is early morning on the day of the car show this past Saturday. Good view of the…[Read more]

Using a Nikon d200 for now with a 18-70mm lens. So, 27-105 full frame equivalent. Aimed toward Canada but that wood line way in the distance is between us and the Canadian border line that runs down the middle of the St. Lawrence River.

Well thanks Rob @admin-2, I had to find out why there was grass sticking out of the tree. Winter’s coming soon here an she needs a warm place to rest.

@admin-2

Hooah, Thanks Rob.

Read what you mentioned about the other photo and had to find Midnight Oil on youtube and listen to “Beds are Burning.”

Thanks, @admin-2! The idea came from my feeling that shooting “quick photos” is actually hunting with a non-lethal weapon (i.e., timing is everything). I don’t enjoy working that fast.

@robertapple

Nor would I go after it. All that week, I passed by several of the manholes being inspected.

@admin-2

Hooah, I have well over 1K photos in this genera but I do want to ensure I don’t double post any 🙂

@admin-2

I’m fortunate to have a high speed connection. Robert pointed out his wait time for the Part 1 and suggested the Part 2. So yeah, for those with a slower connection, limiting posts is a great fix.

Hi Rob, it’s a Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM | Contemporary, my go to for most bird shots.

@admin-2

Thank you for the kind words, Rob  @admin-2

lol!!

I can both imagine that as a child, the pleasure you got from snapping them, as well the subsequent ‘speaking to’ from mom… lol

@admin-2

I think I’m going to have to try that, Rob.  I buy the almonds all the time and then roast them in the oven myself.  It gives them a much more robust flavour.

@admin-2

@admin-2, I plan on trying this shot again and testing the color toning I’ve been experimenting with.

I hear what you are saying, Rob. I think my final “take” on this scene (shown below) is closer to what I saw at the time. I remember feeling that this was a rather magical, unusual place with the cool street art and the sunlight filtering through the above latticework. My late first wife may have said it best when that she said “she no longer…[Read more]

Thanks, @admin-2! This is on my walk to campus every school day. But now the tunnel has been repainted white so it is not nearly as colorful.

@admin-2

I have the batteries and cards covered, I have been going back and forth on taking my 28-70 that’s the lens, that lives on my camera, but it an old f2.8 and it’s heavy beast of a lens.

taking a polarizer filter, but the  ND grad is a good idea since I would be shooting up at the mountains.

my main worry is getting past the TSA taking…[Read more]

@admin-2, please see my pm. – John

Mike, here is my 2 cents.  My impression is 75% of LS participants are amateurs, including me. (Although I have had photographs selected as winners in international contests.)  It seems you are a professional (i.e., receive payment for your photographs).  I guess we each have to decide what it means to pu…[Read more]

@admin-2  , Rob , can you address this, I deleted your other post Mike as this was a bit more informative.  I can’t say that in  my 10+ years at Light Stalking I’ve ever seen this Mike ( @m-c-beckworth ). My guess would be someone had a Brain Fart.
