Came across this shot shrub oak during sunrise the other morning. One of my favorites of this year. D800, bracketed -1,0,+1. 24-120 Nikor @ 120mm w/36mm extension tube. I liked the hues and the frosted edges of the leaves.

Been a few months since I have visited here and thought I would check in.

Duane, nice image. What are the main subjects of your Blogging?


So far it has been all woodland photography based. I know in Iowa? There are plenty of woodlands in the state and the nice thing is not many visit so no need for all the social distance. I don't plan on doing a lot of teaching as there are far too many 7 tips, 5 best videos out there. Who am I to tell someone else how and what they should be doing anyway. In short it is a video journal of my experience looking for things to photograph in the woods.

Been a long time since I posted here at the hog. Been doing a lot of vlogging as of late and shooting every weekend. Came across these mushrooms and had to shoot a macro of them. 12mm extension tube on a nikor 24-120 lens funny when I first saw them I almost passed up an image because I thought they were bland looking. Turns out to be my favorite shot of the day, go figure lol.

All here....at first, I agreed with...'the purpose of this post..'
Then, I kept reading more replies castigating the OP for various reasons.
Not fair and not right. Based on the critics remarks here, there have been an enormous number of gratuitous posts that have not had this response.
Give the guy a break...his new camera arrived and just wish him the best! And, don't take yourselves so seriously!


Could not agree more. The negative ones present themselves as a little jealous.

Good luck with the new gear hope you can produce good images with it.

There are various stages that can define where we are in our photography based on our skill levels we possess at the time an image is made.

What defines a photographer though is not his skills or if he makes a living doing it. This comes from deeper within the person. It is their vision and how they present the scene that defines them as a photographer. A deep connection with the scene can be reflected in the final image and this makes a great photographer.

Financial gains from one's photography does NOT make them professional. Some chose to shoot for other rewards. Too many here discount the non "making a living" photographer as a novice amateurs. They can't seem to look past the money as a definitive way to identify professional.

Hope this is ok in this section unsure where it belonged.

Spent the last two weekends getting up close in Briggs Woods County Park south of Webster City Iowa. Created some of my best work to date and made this slideshow to feature the beauty of it all. First weekend gray overcast conditions.

Enjoy on a large TV for a good visual experience. Music is calm and soothing. Second weekend clear sunrise. I got more artistic in the second visit and make no apologies for it no do I feel the need to justify my processing choices. I usually keep myself reined in but let myself go on this second set.

I am done with the external backup drives. They fail too often and cost a fortune to retrieve the data from them. I will be going to the cloud with my files here on out. Just had a Seagate drive fail last weekend during backup. Probably only used 10 hours of spin time. No more for me let professionals do backups.

I never had any issues with batteries of any type. It's a battery for crying out loud. Brand stuck people are throwing away good money.

Buy 3 for the price of one is a no brainer. ALL OEM products cost more because that is the way they do it. Gotta keep the cash flow and marking parts and accessories up 100 to 300% is a cash cow for them. I have been using generic batteries for 8 years and NEVER have had any issues with them. Most likely the batteries are all made at the same and just stamped differently. Worry too much over non important things or non existent.

What do YOU think of them? Are you happy with the way they look? If you say no then open them back up and try again. Otherwise it does not matter what I or anyone else thinks about them. Shoot for you, process for you is the best advice I was given.

Never took a workshop but looking at the prices one has to pay would not tip them. Guides would be another thing all together but would depend on cost and service.
