Fortunately I could reach my camera without him seeing me but the first shot was taken through two panes of glass and for the 2nd one I moved to another room and snuck under the net curtain while he was not looking. He was trying to get rid of that fluff on his beak by rubbing it on the railing a couple of time. Great pictures!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one nice steam engine. Must be very old. Reminds me of the old '71 Baja Bronco truck my uncle rebuild. It got new shocks, moto metal wheels, and bigger tires which gives it a great new stance. The mechanism of old machines like that are pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL3XCruise Posted January 22, 2019 #3354 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Relatively new to photography with anything more than a phone/point and shoot, but decided to try some shot last night despite the sub-zero wind chill. Sadly I only have a 135mm lens and the wind gusts were shaking the cheap tripod, so the long exposures didn't work to well (I can't imagine the challenge of doing a long exposure from a ship!). I would be curious what equipment and settings others use/suggest for this type of photo, as I'm trying to learn more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To stop the shaking it is suggested that you hang something weighty on the tripod under the head where the camera is attached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I need a better tripod before I add any more weight to it, but I will give that a try once I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pierces Posted January 30, 2019 Author #3360 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Not exactly today, but last week I used the heck out of my camera on the Symphony of the Seas. I really, really enjoyed the new camera. No regrets about taking the leap. Take a look if you're interested.

Rare mskaufman Posted February 1, 2019 #3364 Share Posted February 1, 2019 The sub zero wind chill meant the view was clear. Close to the moon Venus, Jupiter and Saturn were all visible. Went and got the camera. In one photo the dot to the lower left of the moon is Venus. In the second photo you can just make out Jupiter to the upper right of the moon.

Rare pierces Posted April 8, 2019 Author #3365 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Finally got a moment to make a quick flower run. So many places are closed off due to traffic and flower-stomping morons. Beautiful weather for the day as well. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
