I've done some with the filters and not with a modified camera. I want to get a modified camera someday but for now I play with PP. I use Lightroom, but I think PS would be better.

this is the Barking Owl.

sorry for the confusion...I was just sharing the pic of the barred owl i took a couple months ago.

I really like Owls. I captured a shot of this Barred Owl. A conservation officer told me the Barred Owl is the only owl with black eyes.

I think it's the Barking Owl.

the audio clips on this webpage explain why it's called the Barking Owl...sounds like a dog

Great shots Linda...I'm so jealous

it was a summer intern that confirmed the names.

I sure needed a laugh today

I'm sure the first one is what we call a grainery. The little roof on the far end was the elevator...that would bring the grain to the top and it would go down a shute to different compartments. I suppose that one was for wheat. Here in Iowa they were used mostly for oats....sometimes barley and even soybeans. The really nice ones had corn cribs on the sides and you would drive the tractor and wagon between the corn cribs and you could open bottom of one of the compartments and the grain would run into the wagon by gravity. The corn cribs were larger since they stored corn still on the ear. They would shell and feed the corn when it air dried in the cribs.

great shots...got to love it when she looks at you too

I should add that timing is the key. You need to activate the shutter before the shell explodes. I took about 80 shots and was able to save about a third. Some go out of the frame so I learned fast not to zoom in too much.

Thanks for the comments....and Linda you could take a nappy now and go out to the fireworks show later...LOL

I was on a tripod with remote shutter release and all shots were taken at 2 seconds with this setting. I dont think there is a way to decrease the shutter speed any more in this mode. A local town had fireworks early and another town is tonight and more on the 4th of course. I'm really happy with the results. I was about half way zoomed and about a mile away. I did crop these images but very little post work.

Kayaking in Iowa.

Great shots Linda...are you loving that camera as much as I am?

I have 3 nights too, the 3rd, 4th and 6th...but you get to tell us about your results first. I not very confident about being able to do this myself.
