We asked earlier in December how (if) UHH has changed your photography. Now an annual reminder about goals (resolutions). Did you make and accomplish any for 2021? Should you make any for 2022?

Current Equipment

Are you learning to better use your current equipment?
Are you learning your processing software?
Are you organizing your legacy images?
Did you sell your unused and outdated equipment?
Are you using your tripod?
Are you organizing your new images?
Are you using your external (speedlite) flash?
Did you consolidate miscellaneous HDs into a single larger drive?
Did you implement and follow a back-up strategy for your image files, software install files, and passwords / credentials?
Did you investigate insurance / replacement costs of your equipment?
Did you download the PDF copy of your camera model?

Technique

Are you using Back Button Focus?
Are you using selective focus with an off-center AF point placed specifically on the subject?
Did you watch any utube training for your software?
Did you return to a prior subject with a new lens or technical approach to specifically improve on a prior attempt?

UHH Participation

Did you ask for help?
Did you answer a request for help?
Did you share any images?
Did you comment on any images?

Life

Did you make a photography-based trip?
Did the pandemic increase or decrease your overall photography effort?
Did you shoot any film?
Did you display your images on a digital frame or TV?
Did you print any images?
Did you sell any images?
Did you enter a photography competition?
Did you change to mirrorless?

Every journey, even one that takes years to complete, begins with the first step. Don't let a knowledge of the length, or just a fear of not reaching the end, stop you from ever even starting.

Enjoy the holidays and stay safe!

Great list Paul.

I joined UHH maybe 3-4 years ago, and have benefited greatly from following the 'right' discussions and people.

Given that the answer to more than half your questions is a Yes, I think I am doing well on the learning curve thingy. Some answers are a No due to them being personal non-goals : e.g., selling photos and flash photography.

Bssed on some of the comments, the questionnaire may feel like a year-end performance review to some! But since I'm doing the review and not a clueless boss with a potential agenda, I'm fine with it.

Your 4th image says it all. I remember the first time I ever saw - but mostly heard!! - Snow Geese. Ours should be back soon.


The 4th image is very interesting. Thanks for sharing the set.

All taken at 600mm & f4 1/2000 on a monopod.

I just got this lens and maybe I'm expecting too much, but I thought these would be much sharper. Does anyone have this lens? I'm sure there is a learning curve, but I was expecting wow better for the $'s spent on this lens!
Any tips on using a big prime are welcome. I have a monopod with the Wimberley MH-100 MonoGimbal Head for Monopods. I may get a gimbal for my tripod, just not feeling flush right now....

These are very nice shots.

I think this is a juvenile. Adult eagles have a white crest. Like the one in this old post of mine.

The last shots of Bryce on our 2018 van tour were of the sunrise. Before we left, the tour guides took my suggestion and the whole tour set up on Sunrise Point. After helping some of the others, I took the iconic sunrise shot in #1. Then, I turned to my right and got the money shot in #2.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.



Mike - the money shot is worth a lot!

👍👍👍

(With apologies to UTMike, whose DHPSP post yesterday inadvertently inspired this post of my own....)

There are a variety of 'stories' about the naming of Utah's Dead Horse Point State Park, and needless to say, almost all of them involve a dead horse. I won't go into each of those stories (since most simply don't pass the smell test), but I'm here to tell ya, a dead horse was indeed involved, only it wasn't up there on the Point. And hoo-eee, was it smelly!



I like the 3rd pic a lot. 👍👍👍

The 1st, not so photogenic. 😬

Great capture.

With the messed up 'do', (s)he reminds me of Boris Johnson. 😁
