PESO Red Belly

2019-02-03 Thread Paul Stenquist
The thermometer hit 50 degrees F this afternoon, about 70 degrees warmer than it was two days ago, so I spent some time in the yard shooting birds. I haven’t been out there recently, so they were a bit shy and most stayed hidden. But I got this red-bellied woodpecker high up in a spruce tree.

You know, Bill, I am yet to see a Hitchcock movie from start to finish. But, yes, it is dark-ish and square-ish and may be a bit creepy, though I thought it was just a street scene with a funny text to add. In fact, this very shop in Neve Tzedek, Tel Aviv, does not stop to produce fun writings on

Morning, Paul. That setting can be something slower of course, and has been, but that's where I am now. A pro friend promotes an even higher speed. I don't choose to assume the higher speed is shortening shutter life, thus the setting...for now. Thanks for commenting, Paul. J Sent from my

Thanks, Alan. A smaller aperture to extend DOF would call for a greater ISO which is set at an auto limit of 1250 which I consider comfortable. The snow impression is enough for me in this case. I, also, have a 3200 shutter setting when shooting wild "life" thus requiring help from the aperture to

Jack, a lot of my shots in Kruger are at distance. I find the solution is to go for a greater DOF and make the intended subject part of a scenic. In your case, if the mountains had been in focus, it would probably have worked quite well. I remember seeing a shot of a canyon entitled "Bird"
