Jonathan. Great stuff.
Thanks so much for sharing
Thanks, Danny. I was channeling another Chicago-based photographer whose work I highly admire.
Two from Tettegouche State Park.

I had to look up where Tettegouche State Park is located..... Yep, not getting there anytime soon - so thanks so much for sharing.
Mike
From last year, but just processed. So... current for me.

Nice pic Pat! Mike I like it up north, but not nearly as far north as Jonathan :)

Did a whale watch on Sunday. I've been on several over the years, but this is the first one where I got to see a breach up close. Turns out the one whale did multiple breaches right in front of us:

From our recent family trip to New Hampshire. Although Mount Washington is the 'home of the world's worst weather', it was a rare warm and almost-clear day atop the summit, which we reached via a coal-fired steam locomotive on the Cog Railway.

I finally got a chance to get a day off to try out the 5DS R. The files actually seem better than the 1DX in a lot of ways. Besides the obvious increase in resolution, I can pull up the shadows more without banding issues... and the same for reducing the highlights. They take more sharpening, clarity and contrast without adding a lot of noise. So far, I am pretty impressed. I also liked the colors (cant quantify it, but the colors did seem to have more punch). And the focus seems to be spot on without any AFMA as of yet. Here are a few B&W shots taken yesterday during my annual trek to the Buckley, Mi Old Engine Show (love this place).

That's the first frame in a 5 shot series. Second one was also sharp, but the wings weren't displayed as nicely. Then the focus point drifted off target, so the remaining shots were OOF.Quote:

First airshow with the 7D MkII and 100-400 MkII combo.

This thread has been getting some nice shots posted lately... please keep it up.
Here is one from last night. I wanted to see if the 5DS R could replace my 1DX for low light situations. I think it did good.

I certainly agree. Did you do any dark frame subtraction, etc?

I think you are correct, but I did not use it. I usually don't use long exposure NR for a couple of reasons, but mostly because I am too impatient to wait the extra 30 seconds for the shot to be done.[emoji6] Pretty sad... but more true than I care to admit. I would also like to have control of noise reduction, and don't like to rely on the camera for that.Quote:

Best not to use the in-camera long exposure NR – doing so actually *adds* random noise. It's good for removing hot/stuck pixels, but RAW converters do that anyway. When subtracting a dark frame, the random noise is in different places in the two frames, so you're effectively summing the noise (the way to remove random noise is to average frames). The noise addition with LENR isn't really noticeable at low ISO, but at higher ISO settings like 1600+, you'll see it.Quote:

I haven't been getting out and shooting much so yep, this is my best current shot of lately. Can someone ID the bird? My daughter thinks its a female goldfinch but it seemed to long to me and the underside was too bright yellow with brown stripes. Is it a goldfinch?

Thanks for the sample. And a charming picture, too!
It's definitely an American Goldfinch but I think it could be a male in the process of changing from summer to winter plumage or a juvenile just coming into adult plumage.Quote:
