What’s Up? On Wednesday, I finished writing the text for the upcoming “The Art and Science of Photographing Birds in Flight with the Sony Alpha 1. I have sent a copy out for review and will be working on the photos for the next few days. I’ve been walking two to three miles every day. […] My Calls Everyone but Kevin Hice thought that I should have eliminated the seventh, extra leg in Image #1. He wrote, Being that asymmetric is always better; I would leave the seventh leg. I agree with Kevin. Most folks liked Image #1 best. I liked image #2 best as there was more meat on the […] What’s Up? In the last blog post I agreed with all who commented: Image #1, the one made using the knee-pod technique was the strongest proving once again that lower is not always better. Th incision is looking fine and dandy and the stitches will be removed tomorrow. I am anxious to get back […] My Call In the last blog post, my top pick was the oystercatcher in the swash image for its simplicity and its beauty. That said, I really liked the foraging terns image as well. Your Call Of today’s two featured images, do you like the knee-pod perspective of Image #1 or the heel-pod perspective […] What’s Up? I changed my bandage for the first time on Tuesday evening, DAY 5 after the trigger finger surgery. The incision looks fine, clean, and black with no redness at the edges and just a bit of expected swelling on the pad of the palm below my shutter button finger. The stitches will be […] Via Text from Andrew Schonbek Thanks for the great DeSoto IPT, Artie. It was an eye-opening experience in many ways. I have lots to work on and practice in the aftermath. Looking forward to learning more in the future. Andrew Via Text from Stu Goz Much love and respect to you. On the 3rd DeSoto […] Thursday’s Blog Post Kudos to John Storjohann who was the only one to note that I added a catchlight to the chick’s eye in Image #1. As I love both of them, I could not choose between the two featured images. As I do like the position of the crab and the egg case best […] What’s Up? With a tame American Oystercatcher family with two chicks along with several thousand Black Skimmers and Common Terns, Nickerson has been great. In addition to working the oystercatcher chicks, there has been lots of great flight photography with both the terns and skimmers. And at most, there have been only a handful of […] My Call In Sunday’s blog post, my clear favorite was the spoonbill/marsh grasses image; I love the soft light and am a sucker for pink and green. Not to mention the exquisite image design. What’s Up? In today’s post, I share with you four additional darned good images from the unexpected mega afternoon at […] What’s Up? Today is Sunday 21 May 2023. I leave for the Auto Train station at Sanford, FL at about noon today. You should be able to find me on Nickerson Beach on Tuesday morning. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, I hope that you too have a great day. Below are […] What’s Up? As I will be taking the Auto Train north on Sunday afternoon and spending a few days at Nickerson Beach before my trigger finger surgery on this coming Thursday, I will be busy packing for the next few days. Today is Friday 19 May 2023. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, […] My Call In Wednesday’s blog post, I liked Image #3 best — the B&W version of the Ring-necked Duck swimming with the orange eye painted back in. Why? I thought that it was a pretty clever optimization. What’s Up? I will be taking the Auto Train north on Sunday afternoon and will be spending […] What’s Up? I will be taking the Auto Train late this Sunday afternoon to Lorton, VA, arriving on the morning of Monday 22 May and then driving north. Today is Tuesday 16 May 2023. I will begin packing for my trip. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, I hope that you too […] Egg and Daughter Nite Official Video for John Prine’s “Egg & Daughter Nite, Lincoln, Nebraska, 1967 (Crazy Bone) from his last album, ‘The Tree of Forgiveness. If you’d like to put a smile on your face, click on the red Play Arrow above. The sound is sublime, the words are clever and funny and […] What’s Up? The last DeSoto IPT was a blast. I was blessed to meet and work with Stu Goz and Andrew Schonbek. Stu and Teresa are from St. Louis, Andrew from Plattsburgh NT. Neither participant could believe how much there was/is to learn about bird photography. Though our last session, on Friday morning, was […] This image was created on 10 May at Fort DeSoto Park in Tierra Verde, FL. Standing at full height, I used the Robus RC-5558-3 Vantage Series 3 Carbon Fiber Tripod/Levered-Clamp FlexShooter Pro-mounted Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS lens and The One, the Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera.. ISO 1600: 1/250 […] What’s Up? The first day of the 3rd DeSoto IPT was beyond the beyond.
