One man's long term project that I thought was pretty cool:

This is World Animal Day. Another day I was unaware of until Facebook so informed me. Anyway, I choose to post a nice, big bull elk sticking his tongue out at some tourists.:)

Tried out the newest version of Photo AI, which is supposed to be a major update. Honestly, I only see subtle differences in sharpening and noise reduction. They have two new beta functions, lighting and color balance. In my opinion neither does a good job when automated, and the sliders are so...

Good video:

I posted a picture of a Mallard mom chasing a Black-crowned Night Heron away from her ducklings on Facebook, and a lady posted that it had to be a fake because "Black-crowned Night Herons are only active at dusk or night." She said the grass and tree looked real, but the birds looked fake. At...

I was on the bank of a local lake trying to be quiet and not bother a Snowy Egret I was photographing. Maybe 50 yards away a lady yelled something that I didn't hear. A few seconds later she yelled "hey, you! I asked you a question. What are you looking at? What is that bird? TELL ME!" I...

I watched the male (right) dance around and sing his heart out to the female. The poor little guy was rebuffed, however. Boy: Oh, baby won't you let me be your man? Girl: No. Boy: Oh come on, honey! Girl: I SAID NO! Boy: You're breaking' my heart! Girl: I'm turning my back on you.

Is anyone else noticing that images are taking an incredibly long time to load today? I can click on a thread and it will take minutes before the images in the thread finally show.

The latest version of Lightroom Classic has a new noise reduction feature built in that is AI based. It's right in the detail panel. It creates a new DNG RAW file. It is a simpler set up than Topaz DeNoise, and takes less time than going to an external plug in each time you use it. I have played...

Fisticuffs!

I bought one used XQD memory card from MPB, and this was the box it came in. LOL.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCNm2ZPHPYU&t=1s Many dollars above what I can afford, but this looks like a winner for Nikon. Steve does a great job on this video, as he always does. For me, it's like watching a video on the latest Ferrari. :)

I found a great deal on a used 70-200 f/4 and was wondering if anyone here has experience with this lens. I am interested in a lighter/smaller lens than the 70-200 f/2.8. I'm especially interested in opinions on the AF of this lens. Gracias in advance for any input.

I gave Photo AI a quick test today. For those not familiar, it is a new product by Topaz that combines the capabilities of DeNoise, Sharpen and Gigapixel into one program. It is designed to automate the process through AI, but you can input your own settings. You can work on a RAW file in...
