Red Squirrel Tamiasciurus hudsonicus, Grand Tetons National Park, 21 June 1985. I was surprised how close this animal let me get. It was quite content to continue eating the pine cone, even wh...
A procession of geese January 2019 in Cambridge MA, in some wetlands surrounded by office buildings, near the Alewife stop on the red line.
Crow tip-toeing through the trees; Summit Woods, Montreal, QC; 21 June 2020 This fellow and his friends were very vocal about their dislike of me walking through their forest
Mountain Goats (Oreamnos americanus) Glacier National Park, Montana, August 1974. I came across these goats on the Garden Wall Trail about halfway from Logan Pass to Swiftcurrent Pass. They le...
Kirk's dik-dik (Madoqua kirkii), Bioparc Valencia, February 2017. Taken with my Nikon D5300 and 1100mm f/11 reflex lens at ISO 250 and 1/800 sec. I like to consider this photo as proof that the ...
Long skimmer (Orthetrum trinacria), Tancat de la Pipa, July 2017. Taken with my D5300 and 70-300mm AF-S @ 300mm, f/5.6, ISO 800, 1/2000 sec. A local privately owned nature reserve partnered with...
Butterfly on bracken, Muckross House (Killarney, Ireland), July 2017. Spotted on one of the paths a moderate way from the main house, shot with my Nikon D5300 and 70-300mm AF-S @ 300mm, f/5.6, IS...
I have a GoPro 9 and it has the option to wake at a specific time and take a photo/video/timelapse. However, some of the timelapses use 90% of a full battery (official GoPro model) and in the stand...
There are a number of variables involved, including varying levels of compression. One big factor is screen size vs. image size. A picture displayed on a computer screen will often be resized to fi...
You could do it either way, but it is usually better to apply effects that depend on the size or resolution of the picture on the final-sized picture. This is assuming, of course, that proper anti...
Why? Probably because the photographer told the subjects to do that. Personally, I don't think it looks that great. The bottom picture seems better to me than the others in that regard, but I can...
...it's always kind of awkward to hold a slimy fish in one hand and a camera in the other. If you put the camera on a tripod pointing down, you free up a hand. This would also potentially let you...
Sorry but no. Contests are one of the easiest things for new members to join as all one really needs is a camera, and so I deliberately advertise them. I do think the feature request to customize...
I'm not quite sure how to make one that will be as resistant to impact or scrapes as an engineered one. Many large lenses are sold with fabric "socks" as their only protection, so you may be worr...
I am looking for a better rotating time for doing time-lapses like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BQpSa5Fgxs Would like, Steady movement. Fairly light so I can take it hiking. Un...
Something I have pictures of! The following picture of the Salesforce Tower was taken March 25, 2019 on my Moto X4. I was particularly struck by the reflection of the pink cloud fragments reflectin...
I took this picture from my campsite at Pennsic in August 2019 at Cooper's Lake Campground in western Pennsylvania, US. Pennsic attendees mostly do medieval and renaissance recreation (to highly-v...
Shutter speed, ISO, and f-stop are the three variables you can control in the camera to adjust exposure. Changes in one can be offset by changes in another to keep the same exposure. However, cha...
Shutter speed. This controls how long light reflecting off of objects hits the sensor. The longer the shutter speed, the brighter the image. So a shutter speed of 1/50 would make the image bright...
I am looking for a program to turn a series of images into a time-lapse video. Would prefer a free program. Prefer less features and a straight forward process for making the video, don't need ...
I've started a similar Meta question to list the posts and/or types of posts to migrate in. Please add, criticize, suggest posts or categories of posts you'd like to see.
My answer will focus on the use of the Macro lens alone. My experience with such is this lens by Moment: Note that the frosty filter is detachable in this particular lens. However, I'd recommend i...
Somewhere around the port of Barcelona, April 2010. The building on the left is the Hotel W; the clock tower is obviously much shorter.
It's going to be difficult to capture the shot because the setup's the people use to take these kind of pictures are done in such a way as to trigger the camera at the exact right time and the gun ...
I’m fairly active in the moderation queues at Photo-SE; I also have fairly strong opinions on this topic. Where can I buy this particular camera? Is this particular model a good camera? Is this ...
