Wow! I’ve been swamped. Trying and failing to get my 2008 Income Taxes finished before I leave for the Galapagos this afternoon. Doing 50+ posts per day on my beloved BirdPhotographers.Net, packing, and taking care of business. I will be back in the office on July 20. [Not a valid template] This pair of young […] I have made almost 8,000 comments on BNP (www.BirdPhotographers.Net) over the past year and a half and I am amazed at how often folks with equipment costing more than $5-10,000 are unaware of many of the fundamentals. In an effort to rectify that situation, and to help everyone improve, I will be posting a series […] [Not a valid template] Blacklit Coastal Brown Bear, Katmai National Park, AK. See the image below for the techs. And do click on each image to view a larger version. I created the opening image from the image below. [Not a valid template] This image was created with the Canon 800mm f/5.6L lens, the […] I should have mentioned that when we arrived we were greeted by chants of “You should have been here yesterday.” As it turns out, Thursday–the afternoon of the day that we should have been on Dauphin Island, was a big wave day with a large fallout of neo-tropical migrants. And we soon learned that the […] Despite a somewhat scary weather forecast, I photographed this morning at Fort DeSoto Park south of St. Petersburg, FL with Chris Dodds (www.chrisdoddsphoto.com) and Linda Robbins, the Hummingbird Queen. It was cloudy and dark so we were all using high ISOs and fill flash. By about 9am a huge black cloud was creeping up on […] As mentioned in the last post, the wind and weather on the morning of the 3rd made it one very tough morning. With the wind quite strong from the west, there were fewer birds on the exposed beach, and most of the birds were taking advantage of the small bit of shelter offered by the […] When attempting to photograph erratic flight or action, I will often choose AAFPS, All AutoFocus Points Selected as in most cases this make it easier to track the bird or to maintain focus on two birds that are interacting. On my last trip with James Shadle on the Hooptie Deux, we were headed back to […] For those having image distortion problems related to their browsers, we apologize but will be unable to deal with that problem until we are able to customize Word Press; that will not happen for a while as I am hoping to get my taxes done on time for the first time in years. Anyone who […] I wake up at my home-office at Indian Lake Estates (ILE), Florida about half of each year. (Don’t ask me where the estates are….) In any case, ILE consists of 450 modest homes on 4,000 acres surrounded by 17,000 protected acres on the Lake Wales Ridge. My late masseuse, John Lynott, told me that he […] On the morning of March 14 I photographed at Little Estero Lagoon in Fort Myers Beach, FL with IPT veterans Brendan Quigley and Bob Blanchard. While we were amazed that there were so few herons and egrets around we still had lots of great photo opps. The bridge over San Carlos Pass was closed for […] |
