Another in this series.
I'm thinking this whole section should be renamed the Jim Tonne gallery since he is posting the majority of the photos here. I'm sure I've seen every model of his reposted at lest 5 times, all young and beautiful but... Just saying so don't get your tissy in a wissy.

P 5. Nice pics. I think the bird pics are my favorites. 😊
Thank you, I’ve always been partial towards the birds. 🦢. Probably my #1 subject for pleasure.

I actually took some fresh photos this week to share and kick this one off. We’ve had some pretty dry weather down here the last few years so have been on water restriction and could only water the lawns once each week. As a result…

I wanted to see how closely to reality the AI software would come to matching an original color image. So I took a color photo ( first one here ) and made it into a grey-scale version ( second one here ). Then I used AI software to go from there to color. As they say, "Close but no cigar." Interesting, yes.
First I'm not a fan of AI anywhere but in particular in photography. That being said it was magenta heavy in its AIness.

A tough shot due to depth of field and high ISO, Jim. A reflector or flash might help lower the ISO. Hand holding on flowers can be difficult.
In today's camera's ISO800 is not a very high ISO. With that camera you could easily push that ISO to 2500 or higher without adding that much noise. That way you can increase shutter speed and go to say f8 or f9 to increase depth of field.

AI WARNING
I don't know a pretty young girl who loves horses so I had MidJourney make me one. Background is a shot from my library processed in Photoshop.

Very pleasing images but I’m not a big fan of AI and what it will do to photographers in the future. Thee “A” in AI is Artificial.

When you are shooting birds or BIF especially in manual what are your most frequently used settings (speed, aperture and iso) and focus point?
If you don’t shoot manual and set all 3 settings, what do you do. Why?
Reason for asking…. I’m looking for easier ways of shooting nature as I currently use 1/1000, F 5.6 - F8, and auto iso along with spot metering
Help me out with your technique if possible
Thanks a bunch

It all depends on the camera and its functions. I shoot a Canon R5 setup with a custom function just for my BIF and animals in general. I use several different Canon lenses depending on what I’m shooting and the conditions.
Check out Jan Wagner’s YouTube videos on camera setups. He’s an incredible bird photographer although he shoots mostly portraits his sets are great for BIF also. See my recent post “Local Lakes”. I used many of his techniques and settings for that shoot.

They go by a few names but I know them as Mexican Green Parrots or Red Crown Amazon.
As a side note they are not a native species here but about 15 years ago breeding pairs got away or were released here in the San Diego area and now there are many thousands around and boy are they noisy animals.

A very nice shot although a bit soft focus. Have you tried sharpening it?
