Thanks james, I saw some images of what appeared to be macro images of bird feathers taken from some distance - blew me away! Do you use it stand alone or with PS and/or Lightroom?

I've looked at previous posts about ON1 Photo RAW 2022.5, actually previous editions... The most recent post was 2016 I think. Anybody have more recent experience with this software?

Humanity at it's finest! I love this image! And, I love how it evokes priceless memories for so many (of the above...) people! Sometimes images capture beauty of nature, sometimes of the human spirit. Well done!!

Exceptional shots of a magnificent jurassic type bird!! Love the "puffy" one! Color and backgrounds are beautiful!! Their "song", if you can call it that, is also fantastic. It sounds like an owl if you've not heard it... We have one that lives near our house - his name is Ugly Rudy, although he's beautiful! My neighbor plays a guitar and sings and Rudy often shows up for the concert. Once, he was sitting on the fence listening, and a cat came and sat down right below him. Rudy hopped from his perch, dropped right on cat's head and neck, and began pecking like crazy on the cat's head. The neighbor rescued the cat from certain death! They are killers!!

Superb set. First I ever saw of coyote fishing.


Last spring the Bosque del Apache drained one of the ponds that typically held water birds. As I approached I saw that the usually full pond had been drained down to a small puddle. This coyote was slowly stalking fish in the water, probably a few inches from his nose. He walked around a bit, likely considering which fish he wanted to take, then slowly lowered his head into the water and came up with his prize. I can't believe I missed the head in the watershed, but I was frantically working the camera to get a shot and didn't make it... Only a coyote would look this spiffy over a carp! Probably a traditional Catholic coyote on a Friday...

Thanks for all the great replies!

It's been a slow year photography wise for me. Thought I'd send a few from the year's pool. Some astute views will have seen before...

The first photo is when I first met and picked up Rio at 2 months. This dog has brought immeasurable joy into my life! He is turning into an excellent camping companion! He stops traffic when we're out walking. His eyes convey about a million different emotions and moods. He went from fitting in my pockets to running with the big boys. The last photo looks fierce, but the other dog is "Peace Chocolate" his best buddy. The run and chase each other daily. I'd love to put Rio in a field with sheep, chickens, children, or just about anything else with legs and watch him try to herd them. Amazing, but it's in the DNA!! He was terribly sick the whole month of October. He got Parvo, even though he was vaccinated. It's like covid, new variants keep coming. Then after 3 days at the vet hospital, he came home with Kennel Cough that took him a whole month to get over...it was horrible!! But! He's Baaaack!

These photos of cottonwood trees were all taken within the city of Albuquerque along the Rio Grande. The cranes from Bosque del Apache, as is the hawk. The "drummer" from the backcountry near Datil.

Fun! Good thing you said they were playing; the last shot particularly looks fiesty!


It does! The scared look on Rio’s face is what makes it work…. He can hold his own though, and they all come up begging for more!

My mini Australian Shepard, the one with the red harness, gets to regularly play with his 2 best friends in the park. These dogs are simply crazy about each other! They chase, run, open field tackle, roll, wrestle and slobber all over each other. Eventually stagger home and drop for a long nap. Makes for happy dog and happy dog's person!

I bet if you hooked him up to a generator, you could power the eastern seaboard for a year. Love these shots!


HA! You are so very correct!! Sometimes I'm sure he reads my mind. One of his favorite things is nabbing my socks, and then he seems to enjoy looking very very sad and guilty and reluctantly gives them up. My wife didn't think she was dog lover material, but she is soooo smitten, it's pathetic in a wonderful sort of way.

Sorry, I just noticed you'd called it an Aussie. Does that mean Australian sheep dog?


He's an Miniature Australian Shepard. I don't know that I'm totally clear on the technicalities of names here... Australian Shepards, and Miniature Australian Shepards are a breed, and they are "Australian" in name only. An Australian Sheep dog, also known as a Kelpie, is a breed from Australia. I am open to being corrected here by others who can speak more authoritatively...
