What’s Up? After a somewhat blah sunrise on Thursday, the last morning of the Merritt Island IPT, we were looking at getting back very early. The only thing that can save us, I said, is a feeding spree near the tour road with the birds on our left and the sun on our right. Donna […] This Just In! I am hitting publish on this blog post at an unusually late 1:18pm. We had yet about great morning so I have been very busy. 🙂 As always. Right now it is nap time! Do take a moment to let us know which of today’s three featured Stick Marsh images is your […] What’s Up? We enjoyed a third straight pretty-decent sunrise on Tuesday. The star of the show was a dancing Reddish Egret in silhouette. Again, we were headed home early only to be surprised by another roadside feeding spree. We had a tasty and too-filling brunch at the dependably good Village Inn. The afternoon was […] What’s Up? The Merritt Island IPT officially began on the morning of Monday 15 March 2021. (Sunday had been a bonus day for the early arrivers). We had some more ground fog/fire in the mist conditions, and once the sun came up, the fog rose and turned everything to the east various shades of white, […] Sunday Morning Excitement As I stood at a kitchen counter working on yesterday’s blog post, the house began to shake gently. Then the vibrations got stronger and it got very loud. My first thought was Earthquake quickly followed by But we are in Florida. The noise got even louder and it felt as if the […] What’s Up? Clemens, Donna, and I had a great morning in the Stick Marsh near Vero Beach. After the session, Clemens headed back to West Palm and Donna and I headed back to ILE. After brunch, I started packing for the drive to Titusville. That was followed by my last swim till next Sunday and […] Via blog post comment by Barry Barfield Sony Alpha a1 Set-Up and Info updates Will you be creating a Users Guide for the Sony Alpha a1?

I thought that I had a chance to finish by 7:30am and get out to do some photography on what turned out to be a sunny morning. Though the options and set-up are […] These two images were created on 28 February 2021 at Fort DeSoto Park, Tierra Verde, FL with the hand held Canon RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM lens with the Canon Extender RF 2x (at 1000mm) and the highly touted 45MP Canon EOS R5 Mirrorless Digital camera body. Face Detection plus Tracking […] What’s Up? Monday morning provided little action, and Monday evening’s sunset was not too good at all. Well after the sun was down, I watched one young and two adult Bald Eagles cavorting over the marsh to the north. The youngster kept diving into the marsh grasses and coming up empty. It was fun to […] Via e-mail from 26-time IPT veteran Lou Newman Hi Artie, The R5 User’s Guide is terrific! Well done! Many small changes result in huge differences! Thanks a million for this guide. It has really enhanced my ability to use the R5. Without this guide, I was missing so much … All the best, Lou ps: […] What’s Up? This is the blog post that I had planned for yesterday (until the two crane colts disappeared). I have given up looking for them. I’m thinking bobcat … I did not do anything on my Saturday morning visit to the lake. Sunset was dark and grey, so I did not even think about […] The Writing Process with regards to the R5 Camera User’s e-Guide When I taught fifth and sixth grades in NYC, there was a wonderful formal program called The Writing Process.

And again, the weather was gorgeous and the wind perfect. I did not wait long before heading to my back-up spot, intent on making some nice head portraits of a killer-plumaged Laughing Gull at 1200mm. And I did just that. Miraculously, the single most beautiful […] |
