When I first started digital photography in September, 2002 (not 2001 as I have written before…), I did not realize that it was important to save each RAW file. Each RAW file is the [...] I created this image while seated behind my tripod-mounted Canon 800mm f/5.6L IS lens with the 1.4X III TC and the EOS-1D Mark IV. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +2/3 stop: 1/1000 sec. at f/10 in Manual mode. Lens/TC/camera body Micro-adjustment: 0. Juvie Sanderling Capture Lessons As regular readers know, wind against [...] Size Does Matter; The Power of the Square of the Focal Length In the original “The Art of Bird Photography” I wrote something to this effect: the size of the bird in the frame is not a factor of the focal length but rather a factor of the square of the focal [...] Return to My Homeland, A Guest Blog Post by Yannis Arvanitis Yannis joined Robert O’Toole and I at Lake Kerkini late last winter as our co-leader/interpreter.

This image of a Dalmatian Pelican splashing down for a landing was created on the Lake Kerkin, [...] Too Funny You just gotta love getting old.

Evaluative metering -2 stops: 1/1250 sec. at f/11 in Manual Mode after histogram and blinkies check.

ISO 400. Evaluative metering -3 stops: 1/3200 sec. at f/11. I focused (off the imaging sensor) using Live View/Live Mode as described in detail in [...] Home I drove home from St. Augustine this morning (Monday, May 2, 2011), took a good nap, and am looking forward to resting up a bit and getting lots of work done before my Connecticut/Long Island trip. I fly to Hartford on May 14th.
