Thanks to everyone who provided feedback about selling gear to MPB. They honored their very fair offer for my Nikon D5200, and payment reached my account within a week of their receipt of the camera. I am very happy with the outcome.

Great! Glad everything worked out to your satisfaction. I have always recd the best offers for photography items from mpb.com.

Creativity vs. Credibility

Bill, if you noted the portion of the article addressing "It’s your job to record the world as it is, not as you’d like it to be", you'd have noted that it was in reference to editorial and journalistic photography. To which that quote is completely correct.

You are correct. I don't know how many responders missed this.🤦

The most Fearsome critter inthe Country!

We had one of them pass through our back yard early in the morning, a couple of times last week.
Haven't seen it since, thank goodness.

You assume to know what I am attracted to and what I like to capture. You have never seen an image posted on UHH by me, like the type we are discussing.
But you know, photography like mother nature is not always pretty. And that is what makes it interesting.
I'm the type of person that likes to see all different sides of things, not just the nice or pretty ones.
Some people like to go through life wearing rose colored glasses, I'm not one of them.
And if everybody traveled the same road, it would be a pretty boring one.

Monopod needs a head?

Some people use heads on their monopods, some don't.
If you don't you're restricted to landscape orientation.
I have a little ball head on mine for portrait/landscape orientation. Could have purchased a tilt head.
Never could understand why someone would use a tilt-pan head on a monopod.
The style of head is like a camera bag, depends on how the user desires it to be used.

I guess you just don't understand the efficiency of using a tilt head. Almost all movements except vertical can easily be achieved by moving the monopod. Why complicate it by using a ball head?

A head like this is all you need for a monopod.

Having a camera for 55 plus years. I don’t let the camera tell me how to take a picture ! I tell the camera how I want to take it !

What if it doesn't want to co-operate?

Do you smack it around a bit until it listens?

Good captures of an every day event in nature. The Hawk has to pursue the type of food it is genetically programmed to eat. Mother Nature is not always pretty.

Colorized B/W

I agree, and was pretty taken aback when I hit the button and saw the results.

Yes, that is one of the better photos I have seen that has been converted from B&W to color automatically by software.
Most programs I have seen that do this leave a lot to be desired.
