I agree with Bob and Ralf   on all counts .   Great sets

Two really beautiful series and I agree that children are dangerous 
and should be kept under control at all times.

This is a very widely-held view, to the extent that they warn you on 
every plastic bag to keep away from children.

Unfortunately back lit. These birds are closely related to Cormorants but
swim with their bodies totally immersed giving the impression of a

snake. The second image (by a fellow photographer, Ian van Romburgh) 
shows

that very well.

Late yesterday afternoon, a fatigued driver fell asleep on the National 
Road overpass across Phalaborwa about 2km from the Kruger Park gate, 
crashed through the barriers & ended up against a Knoppiesdoorn (Acacia) 
tree. The driver survived with minor head injuries.

A bit of history:

A few years ago, Rio Tinto sold Palabora Mining Company (a copper mine) 
to Chinese HBIS who bought it primarily for several million tons of 
Magnetite (Fe3O4) accumulated as a waste by-product with the intention 
of exporting to China for the steel industry. The railways had no spare 
capacity so a sub-contracted fleet of about 400 of these trucks were 
engaged to truck the Magnetite to Maputo. Each load is about 40 tons 
wuth up to 8000 tons being moved daily.

Agree. Quite remarkable for 6Mp. Also some kids beyond the far couple.

I should add that residential power comes into the main panel supplied 
through three wires - two hot wires and one neutral. Voltage between 
either hot wire and the neutral is 110V and between the hot wires it's 
220V (since they're opposite phase to each other).

Cotty -

Most household circuits in the us are 110/120V.  Electric cook stoves, 
electric clothes dryers and a few other items with a high power 
requirement use 220V.

I just took a quick look at it at B It says "compatible with Pentax
KAF2 mount lenses on Select DSLR cameras." They've got it in stock
with a "Limited supply" at $$$.¢¢.

I'm guessing the K-1 is one of those select DSLRs, but is the FA-600/4

I'm guessing yes, because it works on the K-1 without the rear
converter, but I'd like to *know* I'm not fooling myself before I'd
purchase one.

Reading the footnotes there are some obvious limits to the lenses the

Yesterday we went on a day Lockdown excursion to Mopani Camp situated 
about 100km N of the Phalaborwa Gate in the Kruger Park. We were self 
sufficient (just in case) but were treated like royalty when we, the 
sole visitors, arrived. Lunch on the Fish Eagle Terrace was a memorable 
occasion. A few shots: The impressive entrance with Baobab tree; An 
immigrant - English House Sparrow; A worker busy painting the wooden 
terrace structure with creosote (there was recently a bad accident when 
part of the terrace collapsed because of termite damage) & a 4-frame 
Pano of Pioneer Dam. Regrettably the two bird hides at the other side of 
the dam are still off-limits. Please scroll along.

Late this afternoon while I was gardening, a large flock of Green Wood 
Pigeons visited a Fig tree overhanging my carport. Now, these are very 
difficult birds to photograph because they are very skittish & will 
explode out of the tree if disturbed. I slowly crept into the house to 
get my camera & slowly crept as close as I could get (about 20m). Most 
of the birds were in the middle of the tree but I managed to find a 
couple exposed in the weak sunshine. I then slowly backed off & put my 
camera back in the house before returning to pack away the garden 
tools. Then it happened - with much commotion the whole flock shot out 
of the tree in all directions. The Afrikanns name for this bird is 
Papagaaiduif (Parrot Dove) for obvious reasons. This is the pick of a 
bunch of average shots:

I still occasionally wear my Omega Speedmaster Professional - the 
Moonwatch -  that I bought in the mid-1970s when I was flying charter.  
I figured if it was good enough for NASA it was good enough for me.  
Mostly, though, now I wear a Fitbit smart watch because: a) it lets me 
monitor my exercise and b) my health insurance company gives me a new 
one every two years.

I haven't watched the video, but it's not pretentious to like nice

Nevertheless, I have some nice watches (none of them are in the Rolex

worn any of the nice ones. It's not about accuracy of time-keeping - 
nobody really needs atomic-clock standard accuracy in everyday life - 
but the other stuff that a smart watch is good at. But if I want to 
bling it up I'll wear one of the nice watches.

Woolly huge black and a few white clouds.

Cold possibly be a Red Shoulder Hawk. White clouds were very bright and 
happened to be directly behind

"it" when I released the shutter. I, of course, then  had a perfect hawk

See my attached sorry image. I do sort of like the pose.

Hi Dan,

I need to work for a few hours tomorrow in Scotts Valley (just down the 
road from Bay Photo).  If anyone wants to meet up for breakfast, I'll be 
grabbing a bite at Auntie Mame's in Scotts Valley about 9am. That time 
of morning it's probably about a 40 minute drive from downtown San Jose, 
possibly less.


It's very easy to find on the corner of Mount Hermon Road and Scotts 
Valley Drive. I hope to be done by 2PM or so.


At that time of the day the drive is counter commute so it should be 
pretty clear. The weather is also supposed to be clear tomorrow:

https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/us/ca/felton?cm_ven=localwx_10day

There are a lot of photo opportunities in this area. I heard something 
on the radio about surf warnings, so that could make for some good 
photos. Even if the weather as settled down, the surf is probably still 
stirred up a bit.


Here are my Santa Cruz County photo albums
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/collections/72157627106882506/

Some of my favorite places are:

Even if there won't be a lot of butterflies, Natural bridges can still 
be nice:

Seacliff beach in Aptos, with the SS Palo Alto, aka the cement ship

Moss Landing, halfway between Santa Cruz and Monterey:
https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=99496143%40N00_all=1=moss%20landing

Fall Creek is the state park walking distance from my house:
https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=99496143%40N00_all=1=fall%20creek

The Felton Covered Bridge in Metropolitan downtown Felton is often worth 
a 15 minute stop

https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=99496143%40N00_all=1=covered%20bridge

It's a few blocks from Roaring Camp, which is right next to Henry Cowell 
state park

https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=99496143%40N00_all=1=roaring%20camp

If you enjoy pipe organs, there is one in Boomeria in Bonny Doon (a few 
miles from where Robert Heinlein used to live)

https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=99496143%40N00_all=1=boomeria

North of town there are a bunch of nice beaches around Davenport

including Shark's fin cove

If you enjoy eclectic music, do check out KPIG radio (107 oink 5)
https://www.kpig.com/
It's the radio station that pretty much started the genre Americana 
music, or at least coined the term for the mix that they play. Rumor has 
it that there are now even folks in England who do internet music shows 
in that style.


If you want to swing by my house in Felton, I could even bore you with 
my metal prints, consider that as an offer or a threat as appropriate.


For food in this area we've got a pretty wide selection. In Felton we've 
got the Cremer house which has yuppified comfort food and a large craft 
beer and cider assortment.  Across the street is Flynn's, a new place 
slightly upmarket.  John Craige will be doing a sold out show tomorrow, 
but the restaurant should still be open.


In Santa Cruz, India Joze is a very interesting hole in the wall with 
Asian inspired food.


Mission Street BBQ, not far from Natural Bridges is quite good and has 
live blues music every night from 6-8, they have a sister restaurant, 
Aptos Street, which is near Seacliff Beach.


Hindquarter in Santa Cruz is another one of my standbys, ribs steaks etc.

Given more guidance, I could make other suggestions.  There are, of 
course a lot of other things to do on that side of the hill.  There's a 
much wider selection of food over there.  Great Ethiopian in San Jose, 
Malaysian in Milpitas, Indian and Pakistani all over the place.

relaxed, probably having eaten & washed in the nearby river. I can now

Thanks for looking, Bob, Dan, Jack & any others. It seems to have pushed
off now that I have blocked access to the garage.

Apparently the skeletal structure of Dassies, Dugongs & Elephants are
similar which is why they are grouped together. If they had a common
ancestor it was long, long ago.

A Tree Dassie   (Dendrohyrax arboreus) on my garden wall. It was living

Tree Dassies are nocturnal, herbivorous & solitary, quite the opposite

to the

communal Rock Dassies found on kopjies. At first I couldn't get close

but now

can approach to about 5m. Apparently they have become garden pests in
Johannesburg with somethin of a population explosion.

Very nice.



With no large-aperture wide-angle for that system, the ISO must be 
stretched pretty far to make the dust lanes in the galaxy appear.


To get the same AoV of my 24 on the K-1 you'd need 36 on the 645Z. Do 
remember that the ones I posted were stitched panoramas. Interesting, 
I tried poking around on ebay  and the wide angle options seem to be 
35 f3.5 or 45mm f/2.8


https://www.ebay.com/sch/3323/i.html?_fsrp=1&_nkw=pentax+645+wide+angle&_sacat=3323&_from=R40=nc=Pentax 



KEH doesn't really show anything else
https://www.keh.com/shop/lenses/pentax-645-a--pentax-645-fa--pentax-67-.html?multi=true 



I'm rather surprised by this.



 From looking at Larrys shots, I believed the quality of the 
foreground would be the decisive factor for whether a result would be 
print worthy. 


It is my experience that photos of just the sky get very boring very 
quickly, even if it's an amazing image of the sunset, milky way etc. 
And as far as the night sky goes, there is nothing I can do that you 
can't download better versions of from the Hubble archives.  I always 
try to put something interesting in front of a pretty sky.


With that in mind, I took an extra long exposure at a lower ISO and 
smaller aperture to see if they could be combined effectively in post.
That turned out to be more finicky than I had hoped, even with no 
fluttering vegetation to move between or during exposures. Or maybe 
I'm just too tired to be efficient now (it's 3 am).


I haven't yet experimented much with lighting my subject on the ground 
when putting the sky in the background.


Here's one I did in Rhyolite outside of Death Valley
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/11770425926/in/album-72157639425946344/ 



Anyway, I think the technique may have some merit for the right kind 
of foreground.


I'd like to try it with nudes, as has been observed a nude in the 
foreground can improve a photo with almost any background. There are 
some major depth of field challenges there. But I suppose that someone 
with focus stacking software could do two fifteen second exposures, 
with the foreground subject lit with a flash and one image focused on 
the foreground and the other focused on the background, and let the 
focus stacking software sort out which frame to grab which heavenly 
bodies from.

You might be able to overcome the DOF issue if you have a _slim_ nude that 
is also closer to stars. (Is that what is called a Starlet? ;) )

:D)


PS.
And did you say "flash" and "exposure", while talking about the foreground 
subject? ;)
Not to mention that you shouldn't be grabbing a certain frame(s) even 
with software. :-P)

Inspired by Larrys work, I wanted to explore the options with the 645Z.

Very nice.



With no large-aperture wide-angle for that system, the ISO must be 
stretched pretty far to make the dust lanes in the galaxy appear.


To get the same AoV of my 24 on the K-1 you'd need 36 on the 645Z. Do 
remember that the ones I posted were stitched panoramas.  Interesting, I 
tried poking around on ebay  and the wide angle options seem to be 35 
f3.5 or 45mm f/2.8


https://www.ebay.com/sch/3323/i.html?_fsrp=1&_nkw=pentax+645+wide+angle&_sacat=3323&_from=R40=nc=Pentax

KEH doesn't really show anything else
https://www.keh.com/shop/lenses/pentax-645-a--pentax-645-fa--pentax-67-.html?multi=true

I'm rather surprised by this.



 From looking at Larrys shots, I believed the quality of the foreground 
would be the decisive factor for whether a result would be print worthy. 


It is my experience that photos of just the sky get very boring very 
quickly, even if it's an amazing image of the sunset, milky way etc. And 
as far as the night sky goes, there is nothing I can do that you can't 
download better versions of from the Hubble archives.  I always try to 
put something interesting in front of a pretty sky.


With that in mind, I took an extra long exposure at a lower ISO and 
smaller aperture to see if they could be combined effectively in post.
That turned out to be more finicky than I had hoped, even with no 
fluttering vegetation to move between or during exposures. Or maybe I'm 
just too tired to be efficient now (it's 3 am).


I haven't yet experimented much with lighting my subject on the ground 
when putting the sky in the background.


Here's one I did in Rhyolite outside of Death Valley
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/11770425926/in/album-72157639425946344/


Anyway, I think the technique may have some merit for the right kind of 
foreground.

does your birding friend have a wish list for specific flora? When we 
were traveling in the 80's up to '92 out west I took
careful notes as I was still submitting stuff to animals Animals/Earth 
Scenes and I have a few boxes of dups and rejects from them that have 
specific locations and species.  They had to be razor sharp and well 
ID'd.. and Ive
travelled somewhere in California alone in the 90's, 2002, 2005. anyway 
I may have  something I could contribute

as I'm sure you do too!

Hi Larry,

Definitely a Red-tailed Hawk (adult). At first I thought it was the pale
prairie subspecies often referred to as a "Krider's" Red-tailed Hawk,
but the extensive belly band and the tail with orange going all the way
to the base (rather than with an extensive whitish wash at the base and
orange only on the outer half), leaves me to think this is what is often
called a pale-morph Red-tailed Hawk. Red-tails are extremely variable
and can range from very pale like this one to almost entirely
chocolate-brown.

Fantastic photos - thanks for sharing them!

We don’t get many big brawny birds here in the heartland. But today a
hawk landed in a nearby spruce while I was shooting dinky sparrows and
chickadees. Not easy to identify him sitting in a tree, and at first I
thought it was Cooper’s Hawk.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4o9lnaof9xso1x0/8136.jpg?dl=0

But I got one throwaway shot of him in flight, and due to the wing
markings and the broad red tail, I think he’s a red-tailed hawk.

Of course it would be great if all my friends bought a book or calendar,
and some of you already have and have
been thanked - but I'd love it if you looked at the "store" I have now
on createphotocalendars.  Cafepress is
phasing out wall calendars so I've transferred several classics to the
new location.  The good thing is, I have
more control over the appearance of the calendars here, though it is a
bit more work and at the new locale
I can do BOOKS!  and I DID!
The First Time I Saw Paris is now a hardcover photo book (in came out in
2010 as a small appointment calendar on
lulu.com)  in two sizes.  and I just finished making a little book of
puzzles, which is a lot less expensive than the
photo book.

So there you have it -- do have a look even if you are not planning on
buying anything.  The reports have
been good from those who have already bought calendars and books from me
on this new site - that is,
the print quality is good and the size selections for both calendars and
books are good too.  Now I'm
glad cafepress is phasing out the calendars but they still have lots of
my designs on lots of product.

Meanwhile - Have a great turkey day!

Hugs all around,

OT : Fwd: books! calendars! what I've been up to!

[ann sanfedele]

Sent this out to a bunch of fiends who are neither on PDML or on facebook -
but as I added a new item to the store, thought you guys might have a 
look, too



 Forwarded Message 













































Hope this doesn't get considered j*nk by your email server..
Here is the link, so I don't forget to put it in.. but read the rest of
the email first please :-)

https://www.createphotocalendars.com/Shop/annsanfedelecalendarsandbooks

Of course it would be great if all my friends bought a book or calendar,
and some of you already have and have
been thanked - but I'd love it if you looked at the "store" I have now
on createphotocalendars.  Cafepress is
phasing out wall calendars so I've transferred several classics to the
new location.  The good thing is, I have
more control over the appearance of the calendars here, though it is a
bit more work and at the new locale
I can do BOOKS!  and I DID!
The First Time I Saw Paris is now a hardcover photo book (in came out in
2010 as a small appointment calendar on
lulu.com)  in two sizes.  and I just finished making a little book of
puzzles, which is a lot less expensive than the
photo book.

So there you have it -- do have a look even if you are not planning on
buying anything.  The reports have
been good from those who have already bought calendars and books from me
on this new site - that is,
the print quality is good and the size selections for both calendars and
books are good too.  Now I'm
glad cafepress is phasing out the calendars but they still have lots of
my designs on lots of product.

Meanwhile - Have a great turkey day!

Hugs all around,
ann

I don't know Nikon that well, but looking on KEH ...

the chrome body looks like maybe a Nikon FM - $99 to $150
Nikon N90 - $50 if he's lucky
Nikon Nikkor 80-200mm F/2.8 D - $668.00 (Bgn) to $822.00 (Ex)
Nikkor 50mm F/1.4 Non AI Manual Focus Lens - $60 to $80
Can't tell what the flash is - could be $25 to $250 depending on the model.

Cool! Those cameras have interchangeable sensors.

:-)

It doesn't show the model number of the manual focus camera, or what the 
prime is. I'm assuming 50mm but value would depend on whether it's 1.8 
or 1.4.


I've got a drawer full of Nikon film gear I need to convert into what 
little bit of cash I can.

Dear Friend of Lick Observatory,

Thank you for signing up for the Lick Observatory Photography Events
mailing list. Our last Photography Night for this year will take place
on Saturday, September 30, 2017.

We would like to give you a chance to purchase tickets before the
general public for the first event. Please use access code *PHOTO0930
*at the following link to buy a ticket for the first Photography Night
on Wednesday, August 30th, 2017 at noon:

*www.ucsctickets.com/presale*


Admission fee: $40 per vehicle (one ticket per vehicle, 4 people maximum).

We have space for a maximum of 30 vehicles, up to four people per
vehicle / ticket (buses and RVs are not permitted to the Photography
Night). In the event of poor weather, registrants will be notified of
event cancellation via e-mail on the day of the event, September 30th,
by 3:00 p.m., and your tickets will be refunded. If there are any left,
these tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, September
1st, 2017.

www.ucsctickets.com/presale
 




We will open up the main building after normal visiting hours for
photographers and their equipment. We will have the 36-inch Great
Refractor telescope
 


in a photogenic position, with the dome open, weather permitting. (Note:
viewings or taking pictures /through/ the telescope /will not/ be
offered at this event.) Photographers will also be able to set up their
camera equipment in the parking lot in order to capture the exterior of
the main building, the San Jose city lights, and stars in the night sky.

*6:00 pm *  Gates open for event: sunset photography, 36" Refractor dome
open
*6 - 7:30 * Gift Shop is open
*6:59 pm*   Sunset
*7:30 pm*   Gates close - all photographers must have arrived by this time
*7:49 pm*   12 degree twilight (nautical twilight)
*8:19 pm*   18 degree twilight (astronomical twilight)
*11:00 *Main building and 36-inch Refractor dome closes
*1:00 am *  Photography event ends (post office lobby will remain open
(restrooms, etc.)
*2:51 am*   Moon sets (roughly First Quarter, waxing gibbous)

The Gift Shop will be open from 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm. After the main
building closes at midnight, the post office lobby will remain open for
access to the restrooms, water fountain, and the vending machines.

Weather and systems permitting, the Shane Telescope is scheduled to use
the Laser Guide Star system after 10pm on September 30th, so you may get
images of the yellow laser, propagating from the Shane Telescope dome.
Note that the laser is not very bright from the vantage point of the
Visitors Center, and the Moon will also be near first quarter, reducing
visibility of the beam, but long enough exposures (at least a few
seconds) should show the beam.

This macro foray is rapidly turning into an entomology project.
The ant is a regular wood ant worker (formica sp.) who strayed into 
the house and died on the living room floor.
As insects often do, it had curled all its legs up underneath. So I 
had to soften it for a while in vinegar before attempting to arrange 
legs and antennae in a more lively pose. Then dry it out, remove 
debris and dust, and then place it on a piece of bark.


Stacked in Zerene Stacker from 300 shots by 645Z with FA-150/2.8 and 
FA-75/2.8 as diopter (ca. 2X magnification). End result is cropped by 
about 50%.

Well, still seems somewhat tenuous
and I know how fleeting memories
can be. I feel it's likely I'll be working
 it fairly regularly for some time
however and hoping to keep it fresh.
Thanks for pleasing contact.

Jack,

It seems to me that you've only uploaded the one photo to photo.net. You
may think you've uploaded more, but there's only the one you posted earlier
visible in your gallery here.

https://www.photo.net/10949212#/

Maybe the others are set to private or something? I'm just guessing.

Eric.

Note that the part of the message I quote above only indicates one

quoting - Toralf's original post simply quoted P.J.'s post inline, 
with no

way to differentiate it from any other non-quoted part of the message.

I've seen the same thing on one of Ann's posts, too.

Is this yet another example of a mail client ignoring mandated 
behaviour?
I think it isn't in this case, but that things get mixed up by mistake 
if you hit delete at the wrong spot, or something. I didn't really 
notice it happening in that message...


M$ Outlook is more notion's when it comes to quoting behaviour, or the 
lack thereof, isn't it?
OMG. That should read, "more *notorious*". Spell-checker didn't agree, 
though.
