Faststone is free and I have been using it lately, but I like what I hear about Affinty. I seem to be able to do everything with Faststone but wondering what Affintiy has over Faststone. Both have a RAW converter, right? Affinity is on sale now for half price and I'm thinking of getting it. Please let me know if you think it is better than Faststone as a photo editor. Thanks.
One cannot go wrong having Faststone Viewer in his arsenal. I use it for culling my RAW files and quickly process the embedded jpegs for posting online.
Affinity, with the latest version 1.9.1, is quickly becoming a favorite among astrophotographers as it can integrate
(stack) raw or fit files and do a lot of post processing with a much less steep learning curve. Photoshop users already know most of the tools and shortcuts. Grab it while it is still on sale.

I returned to my mud puddle to find a much changed scene.
The piece of biofilm I pulled out of the water seemed full
of trapped organisms. Some of them moved a little like
independent algae cells or diatoms move. The landscape
was littered with them. Some ciliates were buried deep in
the film although there were a few swimming in the water beyond the biofilm.

Again, fascinating!

I can still see the cells structure of the piece of leaf
that must have been decaying in the biofilm-covered water
for months. Various creatures cling to it, comprising a
microbe community. The decaying leaf itself is a complex
and interesting scenic site.

Joe Rosenthal took, what is probably the most famous photograph ever taken. The photograph is of Harlon Block, Harold Keller, Ira Hayes, Harold Schultz, Franklin Sousley, and Michael Strank raising the flag on Mount Suribachi.
1st Lt. Harold G. Schrier was the one who raised the first flag on Mount Suribachi but it was considered too small and was replaced by the second flag, which Rosenthal photographed being raised.

Thank you for the reminder. Glory to our Heroes!

Weather is finally on the path to reasonable temps, and I'll be able to get out photographing stuff again in a day or so, but these through the glass at the feeder. We've had the Gray Crowned Rosy Finch around since the start of the month, and they're still here. Yesterday a new crew, Pinyon Jays, stormed into town. These are quite a bit larger and aggressive but about a third the numbers of the Finches. Light is good today, so a few shots. D7200 AF S Nikkor 200-500 5.6 E ED with TC 14 E II
Very nice set!

About to achieve his breeding colors, this young Western Bluebird looks forward to a springtime journey.
In southern Arizona, Western Bluebirds are generally seen as winter residents. At migration time, some flocks will fly only to higher elevations nearby. Others, according to their origins, will seek nesting conditions in latitudes farther, sometimes much farther, to the north.

Awesome capture. Appears normal on my screen. Great job!
