I love the detail and the clarity.

And capture a bit of natural beauty you did.
I'll tell you what I often hear when I show an interesting image: you must have a nice camera!
Seriously, nice work.

Love Bryce Canyon.

Don't destroy a good camera, give it away to some deserving kid or a charity. I suggest that a good acumen and self respect will rule the day. Sour grapes will not.

I would suggest that you give the Lumix FZ-300 a look. It is an incredible bridge camera and will run circles around many cameras. Insofar as security, keep the camera (any camera) close to you at all times. Never put it down. And if she stays with the Nikon, whatever you do, change the strap, because it advertises to thieves that it is a high end item that needs to be taken.

Hi, I too bought the same bundle. It is running on a windows 10 machine with 8 GB of RAM. What I noticed is that each of the applications draws heavily on resources so it turns out to be a slow process. They installed without a problem. i do suggest that you have all other applications shut down. If you need to make space, move your files to an external drive or a large flash drive. Do not delete them. I hope this helps.

What a shot! Nicely done.
Talk about being a photographer in the right place at the right time with the right gear ... very nice.

I'm glad to see that I.m not the only one having problems with the Skylum support team. I own both Luminar and Aurora HDR, and both are crashing regularly. To me time is money and the Skylum folks are, in my opinion, lacking understanding of their software, and customer satisfaction in general. I have reverted to using the 2018 version of each respective program because their responses are untimely and do not betray the critical thinking needed to address these issues.

Very nice indeed!

Gracias por compartir a el Maestro del Charango.

I concur with KTJohnson, I would underexpose by 2*3 of a stop. If you can get your hands on a CPL, that too will stretch your shutter speed by a bit. In post stay with the bottom image and see if cropping the red house helps the composition.

Hi KerryF, let me start by saying that this is a lovely TP image. I too have Lightroom, On1, and Luminar and I am not impressed with them as I am with "DxO Photolab 2", the editor I used on your image. I worked a little on the white balance, the eyes, the whiskers, and soften the foreground, before getting to the stick. I removed the stick and subtly punched up the image contrast a tad for effect. What does thou thinketh?
